I N S T A G R A M

Gonna be really truly gone for a few days! I'm going to my parents house this weekend, and we're having a massive garage sale, plus some family visiting later next week. So here's a digital sketch of Benny for now! - The next episode of "Dazer and Eleanor" is inked, but tragically, I won't have time to edit before I leave 😭 But I should have time to get it done next week, even if I'm not posting stuff 😊 #webcomics #comicbookartist #autodesksketchbook @autodesksketchbook #digitalsketch

To be totally honest with you all and with myself, things might be VERY quiet here throughout June. I’ll be doing some art, but I’ll also be doing a lot of work/family stuff out of town. I’ll have time to work on my comic and things, but taking pictures and writing descriptions takes time too. I’m kinda hoping to still get 2 comic updates though! And I really feel very proud of the next episode because I feel like I managed to “upgrade” my technique significantly! - These days, when my schedule gets busy, I try to remember that my comic is my product, which means it should get priority over social media. It’s tough because I don’t get the same “validation” from quiet work days away from my phone, but I’m certainly more productive. Plz enjoy this picture of Dyn bein a lazy cowboy. #watercolorsketching #watercolordrawings #characterart #webcomicartist #characterillustration

Sat in the park and painted for a bit yesterday! I tried using a waterbrush (the kind that holds its own water)... and actually I liked it! Not as much as my normal brushes, but it’s good for small work and sketches, and WAY more convenient than packing jars of water 😂 Also, I’ve been practicing using “unmixed” colors, straight from the pans. The result is pretty bright and vibrant, and I dig it 👍 #watercolordrawings #watercolorsketching #sketchbooking #webcomicseries #comiccharacter

Just inking and drinking coffee. Mornings like these are the kind when “work” doesn’t feel like work at all ❤️ Also I think I’ve finally reached the conclusion that weekly updates aren’t doable for me, but because goals really help me focus, I’m still going to try doing 2 updates a month. - What I finally figured out is that I can draw at that “level” for 2 weeks, but then my energy plummets and my motivation dries up. So it’s possible but not sustainable. But basically giving myself 10-12 days to draw 5-8 pages is much easier! 3 chapters in, and I’m slowly figuring out how to make a comic 😂 #comicink #webcomic #dazerandeleanor #webtoons #traditionalink #princesseleanor

Just a little Dyn with little flowers in my little sketchbook ✨ #webcomics #watercolordrawings #watercolorsketching #commanderdyn #comicartist

This started out as a pose study, but I decided that it would also make a nice color study! I’ve been wanting to revise Dazer’s uniform for a while now, just because I feel like there are certain elements I could add to enhance his design (without being too complicated.) - And thus his uniform got buttons 😂 😂 😂 #watercolordrawings #characterart #webcomics #webtooncomic #generaldazer

I finally gave the general a formal uniform and my life is better for it. Also considering some updates to his regular uniform... As my drawing abilities get better, I feel the need to revise my designs! #watercolordrawings #watercolorsketching #comicartist #webcomicseries #dazerandeleanor

A couple of watercolor studies from yesterday/this morning. - I seriously need to do a blog or something because I always have soooooo much to say about my stuff but I don't want to type it all into a IG description box 😭 - (But then I'd have to edit and stuff and uggghhhhh) - #watercolordrawings #watercolorsketch #cowboyart #westernboots

Editing and lettering dayyyy! But here's these two in the meantime. I'm listening to "The Chain" by FleetwoodMac and honestly it kinda fits their story. they are both caught in destructive cycles that they can't escape... at least not on their own. #webcomicartist #watercolor_art #characterillustration #primamarketinginc #primatropicals

I try to take weekends off, but it's hard when you love your work 😂 - But honestly inking is so relaxing and therapeutic for me! I've been working at a slow, chill pace, just enjoying my work 👌 #inkartist #pendrawing #comicartist #comicpagr #lineartist

A quick break after tidying up comic page pencils! My g-nib is my favorite inking tool by far, but I love these fine point Zig pens for sketchbook drawings! - #inkdrawing #comicartist #romancecomic #webtoonscomic #dazerandeleanor #lineartist

I've had this image in my head for a while now, and I feel so pleased to finally have it done! There are a lot of reasons why this piece is special, but the biggest is just that I often feel like my "serious" pieces (with lots of planning and studies) come out stiff and dry compared to my quick work. But this one is pretty much exactly what I envisioned. - But also: I like that the *idea* is simple. Literally just the characters, the fence, and flowers. I always think that an image needs tons and tons of background elements, but honestly... not always. - Anyhoo, I went ahead and put this image up on RedBubble if you'd like a print or sticker or some such thing! #watercolorartist #watercolorillustration #watercolordrawing #webcomic #dazerandeleanor

Sooo here's a simple little drawing of the general. I actually drew and inked this using Clip Studio Paint. Lots of artists I follow like the program, but I've never tried it out. I like it! - But my usual problem with digital is that I have a tendency to "fine tune" my work to death. This probably took twice as long as traditional inking ha ha! Being able to undo and zoom is bad for me... But I still like the way this came out. Who doesn't love a lil pensive fella now and then? #webcomic #comiccharacter #comicartist #lineart #clipstudiopaint #lineart #dazerandeleanor

I've been growing more comfortable with Eleanor's ultra-feminine, outgoing personality lately. She's really growing into her own character, and it's becoming more and more fun to work with her! (I always kinda feel like a director working with actors ha ha) #webcomicseries #watercolor_painting #watercolorsketchbook #dazerandeleanor #princesseleanor

Here's this finished piece at last! Something that I did differently with this piece was to focus a LOT on the linework and inking. Typically, when I plan to color something, I put the most focus on the painting stage... But I like how a stronger focus on the *drawing* meant I could just do some flat washes, but still have interesting shadows. Basically, if my lineart is good enough, I can "cell shade" with watercolor ha ha! - So there's hardly any real blending/gradients, other than the inconsistency of the mixed colors. All solid, sharp shapes for the most part! - I have LONG pursued a more graphic style of coloring, and I feel like this was a step forward! #watercolordrawing #watercolorpainting #webcomicartist #comiccharacters #dazerandeleanor #Princesseleanor

*FANFARE* Annnnd here it is! My SkillShare class has officially launched and OH MY GOODNESS I'm freaking out! My one and only hope for folks who take this class is that they walk away feeling like they can start their own comic. That's it. - If you'd like to learn more about writing and planning a graphic novel, I provided a link to the class in my bio, PLUSSSS a link for 2 free months of SkillShare! That ALONE is worth checking out, amaright? - I hope to see some of you over in the projects/community section on the class! #webcomic #graphicnovel #writingcomics #comicartist #creatingcomics

I think this one is from last year maybe? But I recently came across and I kinda felt like "Um, how come I don't paint like this all the time?" - I think the quick, loose washes with watercolor are really fun, and beautiful to look at, but I'd like to work on more bold, "clean" pieces like this too. (Don't forget to check out this week's comic episode! Link in bio!) #watercolordrawing #watercolorartist #comiccharacter #webcomicartist #dazerandeleanor

I decided to do the #faceyourart meme! What did I learn from this? Well... Dazer and Dyn have the most pleasing faces ever, and I'm glad I get to draw those mugs. Also chiseled faces are mah jam. #webcomicartist #watercolordrawing #inkdrawing #comiccharacter
