When toddlers go Walking Dead

I asked a few of my students to make all sorts of faces, and took a bunch of pictures to play around with on the weekend.  I found 2 amazing little art shops tucked away on a small street while biking around and of course decided to blow a bunch of money on art supplies I definitely did not need more of....anyhow. Trying out some watercolour paper I got I started off with this cutesy cotton-candy-funfair sort of feel....

...and then I remembered how much Walking Dead I have to catch up on. My lineart was still in the same style as the one above. I just went nuts on the shadows. Amazing how easy it is to change the mood with one colour...

Poetry Illustration

A few of the illustrations I did for some close friends of mine to accompany a poem written by one of them.

Quelques croquis en aquarelle que j'ai fait pour mes amis. Ils accompagnent une petit poème qu'ils ont écrit.

For my last 2 days off I decided to go on a mini trip to Hangzhou, which is quite a large touristy place with a nice history and lots to draw. SOmehow though when I got there I just wasn't as inspired to draw as I thought I would be so my sketches are pretty bleh and not many. And craaapp...I'm reverting back to scribbley scribbley as opposed to the new clean lines Sheridan taught me to draw. Gotta work on my short pose life drawing.

And yeah, had a TON of fun with the painting. Going to make many more like it I think. Working in acrylics as watercolour is quite fun.
