Hey I don't usually post here but I could really use a chill time. Here's a self-portrait I've been working on. Had to erase the eyes but it's coming along.

look! i made a pulsating bubble!

i really like how this came out.

I really like the colors you used. And with the strength of the outline and the forcefulness of the pulse it reminds me of Gak somehow.

Drew this for my GBS Goontoon thread

That's great. It reminds me of old illustrations for like, the Phantom Tollbooth and such. Very nice, vaguely mid-century linework.

I made this last night for a friend. It's her cats.

I love this. Is that ink or watercolor?

Thanks! It's mostly ink with touches of watercolor for the yellow fur and the red mock seal.

this is from a while back, but my friends made a bet that whoever's team lost a certain game, that person would have to have their portrait painted by me in the opposing team's jersey

also made this still-life recently while giving my friend an intro to painting crash course (although i'm not an expert myself!)

That�s a really good bet idea and an excellent painting

thanks! looking back i wish i had neutralized that blue a bit and sharpened the foreground images, even if they aren't the focus, but overall i'm pretty proud of it

Holy loving poo poo dude, how long did that take you to do and did he have to pose or did you work from a photo or what

I went over to his house and took a bunch of photos with different poses and lighting and worked from the best of those. I'm not sure how long it took me since when I paint I'm often taking breaks or just thinking. Several sessions over the course of a few weeks.

Cool. I really love it. The whole tableaux is really well chosen and the expression on his face & body language is perfect. Did you keep it or who got it?

thanks! the guy who won the bet who is actually a cowboys fan got it

figured noble doggos were a good byob picture.

I have no qualms about posting stuff I've done for myself or as a gift, but I always check before posting anything online I've done on commission, and I make it a rule to never post source images for commission pieces. I've found most people follow the same rules, roughly.
