back to the book

some watercolor sketchbook randomness... good paint on cheap paper.

pens & markers

testing a line of pens and brush tip markers....

overdue dump...

busy as hell with the new house (visible in one of the sketches) but wanted to try to keep the practice of regular posts up... hopefully i will.

Plate 7

picked up "an atlas of animal anatomy for artists" this morning... i think it's awesome how every animal skull appears to be smiling, yet with all their skin and hair animals very rarely appear to be smiling. my dog jack looks like he's smiling every once in a while but really his lip is just stuck to his teeth... he has a dry sense of humor anyway.

*oh, and the drawing was done with a pentel brush tip pen... it takes some getting use to but you can use a damp brush over top to get that washy look.
