SELL IT TO WHO, BEN?? FUCKING PUMAMAN??

this made me so happy

the thing that drives me insane about genAI/chatgpt bullshit is that brother, the process IS the work IS the entire thing. no artist comes to art for the final result. the final result is inextricable from the fucking labor that came into making it

Saw this adorable French animation ad and I had to share it over here! The style looks familiar but I can’t my finger on what group it is. Any ideas?

Another unfinished little test painting. I always set up more than one piece of paper at a time so I can switch from one painting to the other, as paint dries. This one, like the previous painting, was a test in paper-stretching and layering. As the paper was annoying to work on, I didn't finish it.

This one was a little experiment with stretching paper using the (cursed) gummed tape and also layering paint. I don't think this paper handled it all that well 😬

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

In the latest video, I take a look at this storage box and gorgeous palette from @meeden.art (and of course I painted a little thing with the paints!) This is a truly beautiful pochade box, I really like it 😊

Something I think about a lot when doing environmental design: conceiving of the space with fixed parameters, like it's a model on a table, rather than a vista we're taking in. Guillaume applies that principle in these pieces and pushes the conceit all the way up to 10.

omg

Here's a fanart comm I did a while back for @zazb.bsky.social and @evebolt.bsky.social's webcomic The Thief of Tales! It's such a beautiful story and the art is just yummy. Also they're both just wonderful creators and people. 🧡 www.thethiefoftales.com #art

Gorillaz say FREE PALESTINE

Another little cat friend, inspired by one of my cat friends ;) #art #watercolor

Still doing my thing, I guess :) The cat's coat color is just one paint, Roman Szmal's Misty Morning. Stellar for those "blue"-coated kitties 💙🐱 #art #watercolor

Another little practice painting! Just trying out ways of inking, it's not super noticeable on a painted drawing... 😅 (paints are from Roman Szmal, the shiny circle was painted with Coliro paint). #cat #watercolor

Done! A fan art of Draw Steel, from @hellomcdm.bsky.social I found their kit system to be super interesting so I had to visualize it!

Practice piece! I went for the Schmincke Granulating colors for this one, mostly. They didn't granulate as much as I wanted but that's on me, I think 😅 #cat #watercolor

Owl core

More practice arting! No plan, just putting things together on a piece of paper 😉 #cat #watercolor

Another little cat character, same supplies again! I'm still exploring the idea of using super textured and complex paints for abstract BG elements. #watercolor #cat

Fabulous murder 🐦‍⬛ Playing some more with paints lent to me by @evebolt.bsky.social . These make for fun color combo~

Another little painting to try the abstract, fancy paint background again! Masha's paints do the trick really well here, again. I just love it! The cat has been painted with QoR watercolors from Golden. #cat #watercolor #illustration

Little painting from the latest video, featuring the awesome paints made by mashaswatercolors!! Everything was painted using the paints you see in the first photo. Just the most beautiful mixes, I love them so much! 😻 #watercolor (paper is Strathmore Readycut CP, 5x7 inches)

Sketching with my coworker. She's practicing her napping.

Today's post is my painting, swatches and pans from the latest video, featuring Tri-Art professional watercolor paints! I had a great time using the paints and I love that they are made here, in Canada! 🇨🇦🎨

This no-kill animal shelter is in desperate need of kitten food, kitten milk replacement, and other supplies. If you post a screenshot in my replies showing that you donated at least $10 (even as a Chewy gift card), I'll answer a style-related question for you. Donation info in their thread.

Another practice cat character 💪 #cat #illustration #watercolor (Holbein watercolors, Strathmore Ready-Cut paper)

Chunky little guy from a past Caturday livestream! I'm working at getting better with poses and expressions (gosh, it's never easy!) #cat #illustration #watercolor (Holbein watercolors, Strathmore Ready-Cut paper)

"Possum-Tea-vely Gossiping " Not the best name but if you have ideas, lmk! #possum #art #teatime

I wanted to share my painting and swatches from last Sunday's video, featuring the beautiful professional watercolor paints made by Elena at artmaterials.ca! The colors are so pretty and they were a joy to paint with! 🎨🧡 #watercolor #cat

My little test painting to try out this nice travel paint set from Woomer! I just had to feature the cat on the packaging, she's too cute :3 (full review - link in bio) #watercolor #cat

I finally got around to testing out the paper that @paulrubensart sent me. Don't let the misprint on the cover fool you, it is hot press paper, 100% cotton, and really nice! 😊 Painted with their oversized ceramic pans, too #watercolor #cat #illustration

This one is a little test painting I did to try out the mixes with Paul Rubens' oversized ceramic pans (swipe to see them, they are big!). I'm not that familiar with red-yellow-blue so I did a bunch of swatches and mixes. #watercolor #cat #swatches

Camping season is here! It used to be a yearly summer thing when I was a kid. I don't go camping now but there's something always inspiring about that setting. Drawing camping scenes is the best: no bugs, no sunburns, no night trips to the nearest outhouse... 🤢 #watercolor #cat #illustration

Large swatches of the Holbein granulating colors! And some close-up of colors I particularly like (even though I love all of them!!) 🎨 #swatches

The demo painting and the swatches I made for my review of these great little palettes from LimeArt Supplies (on Etsy)! #watercolor #cat

Adventure Cat is back! I finished the little painting I started during last Saturday's livestream! It was a lot of fun! I included the supplies I used, swipe to see them :3 Tiny green palette has the Holbein Granulating paints, I got it from LimeArt Supplies (on Etsy) #cat #watercolor #artsupplies

An oldie but it still makes me smile. #maythe4th #maythefourth #starwars #cats (For me, May 4th is a day with a lot of mixed feelings attached to it. I try to focus on the happy ones, so I thought I'd repost this lil fanart I made back in 2019)

New commission for @dreamstobecome.bsky.social ! I had a lot of fun drawing her character, Nina ❤️ #dnd #ttrpg #illustration #watercolor - Watercolor and ink

We have an ongoing ICON ttrpg game and this is my "necromancer Barbie", Clémence. She likes life, death and everything in between, especially if well-dressed ;)

Old babies 🧡🖤🤍

The rest of the panels for the intro.

I worked on The Elder Scrolls Castles for the past few years and it was an amazing project. Here's what I made for the intro of the game!

I had a prepared, stretched out piece of watercolor paper that needed a painting so this is what I came up with... Still struggling with the art slump so I'm not happy with this one, but it's something that I can reference to make changes... I guess? XD #watercolor

So. I've been in a weird art slump where I'm not happy with what I make, but still haven't figured out how to solve it. To help with that, I've been trying different things and this is one of those experiments (where I used black ink as a main layer). Color touches are watercolor.

See a knight, post a knight!

a sustained note, drunk with static

I’ve started taking doodle notes of our table top RPG sessions. These are pretty terrible but they are fun to do and help me remember what we did from one session to the next 😅

Please send help, Scout had developed a violent taste for croissants!
