30 Day Marker Challenge, part 1
Tuesday, April 11th, 2017
The amazing Sadynax gave herself a 30-day Marker Challenge last month, and I decided to do it for April to help get back in the swing of art after my surgery. Each day had its own weird quirks, and I think I already know which one I’m gonna redo for day 30, haha.
I’m giving my wonderful Patreon supporters some bonuses at the $5+ sketch levels this month, so it’s a good time to become a patron!
Day 1: Use only one color.
Day 2: Choose 3 colors blindly.
Day 3: Use only gray tones (Copics C, N, W)
Day 4: Use complementary colors
Day 5: Use only the markers’ wide tip end.
Day 6: Use only one color family.
Day 6: Use only markers that end with 3.
Day 8: Choose 2 colors blindly.
Day 9: Use only 00, 000, & 0000 markers.
Day 10: Color skin without using any E, R, or YR markers.

Snow Angel Eames & Murder Mal

Snow Angel Eames and Murder Mal, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
Have you been Incepted yet?
Eames has paused his mad rush to the center of the maze on the 3rd level of the dream to make a snow angel, because he can. And there’s murderous, lovely Mal, in her pretty dress from the first dream, hiding something a bit pointy behind her back. Watch out for that one!

Skeptical Saito & Hallway Arthur
Tuesday, April 4th, 2017
Skeptical Saito and Hallway Arthur, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
I have fallen into Limbo, aka Inception fandom, and I have no regrets. Here we have Saito in his delicious tux from the first dream, and Arthur in his beautiful blue suit from the famous 0G hallway fight (pose inspired by Powerpuff Girls, of course). These were a birthday commission for a friend of a friend, and I’m very happy to have been able to not only give a gift to her, but to the fandom, for secret reasons.

I Am Not Here to Please You

I Am Not Here to Please You, 12″x9″ pen & ink, Copic marker, and watercolor on Strathmore bristol for The Doubleclicks video “Women Know Math”
The Doubleclicks got 50 women and non-binary artists to illustrate their amazing video for Women Know Math, and I got to be part of it! I am absolutely in love with this song, the video, and everything it has to say.
Although they licensed the art for this specific use, the original is up for grabs in all its cat-filled glory. A rare self-portrait by the artist, with special guest appearances by Podsworth and Belladonna, this drawing bursts out of its boundaries with glorious movement and joy.

Above, there is possibly the most accurate drawing I’ve ever made of Belladonna, and some pj pants I only wish I owned. Below, you can see this drawing framed, including the very faint pencil reminder up in the top portion with the text I was meant to using.

Tea for Q
Friday, January 20th, 2017
Tea for Q, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
Q is working on his much-stickered, tape-repaired laptop and giving a little smile to Bond, who is bringing him tea in his favorite Scrabble mug. It comes with a bit of extra sweetness in the form of a kiss on Q’s mussed hair.
A perfect Valentine for the nerdy tea-lover in your life, or just to add a bit of love to your life.

Everything is Arthur and Eames

Everything is Arthur and Eames, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
I admit it, I have been converted. Inception fandom is the best fandom. Everyone in it so far has been kind and supportive! And I can’t seem to keep from drawing Arthur and Eames being totally adorable.
Originally drawn for a fandom thing, this sweetness is also available as a Valentine, because it really had to be.

Advent 2016, week 4
Saturday, December 31st, 2016
2016 is almost over!
To celebrate the end of this terrible year, I drew one sketch every day. They’re in various media on cheap-but-archival 5.5″x8.5″ embossed white cards. Some of these will be available as cards, some of them will be in a special sale for my email list next month, and some of them are already spoken for.
I had the flu and then a cold for most of December, so pardon some of the weirdness. I’m mostly well now, except for a bit of a lingering cough. Wish me luck in not catching anything else for awhile!
Advent 2016 day 26: Snortoro, a Pokemon and Totoro parody mashup, $20
