02 09 10 WIP - watercolor and gouache on paper - 10" x 7"
Hello colored paint, it's been a long time =)
(it's hard to make out, but there's a small white bear. the rest isn't done yet)
Screenprinting! "Dive"
More printing this weekend! Again hosted by my friend Kathy Jaller, I had a chance to pull prints of the other image I burnt, "Dive".
Fun times, I still have more things I want to try out!
"Snow"
"Snow" - ink, watercolor and gouache on illustration board- 15" x 20"
Hooray! After two weeks, this piece is finally done. For some reason I got distracted drawing bears all the time. Was very tempted to add a bear here, but decided against it.

Screenprinting! "City Walker"
I learned how to screenprint! Friend and fellow artist extraordinaire Kathy Jaller graciously set up a hands on workshop in her studio this weekend, and we all had a blast.
We had a session yesterday and today, learning how to stretch, prep, and burn screens. I made a screen of City Walker and Dive, and started experimenting on paper. Next week will be devoted to printing (shirts maybe?). I just printed the robot today, but I'm looking forward to seeing how the fish looks when I try it out next week!
Apologies for image quality, these were taken with my phone camera -
Dragon Angel
"Dragon Angel" - ink, watercolor and gouache on paper - 6" x 6"
This is a piece for the Robots and Monsters charity - source words: angelic, dragon, oriental. Learn more about the charity here.
Looks like things are going to be busy with life and work for the next few months, hopefully I can keep up!

Okay, I have a good feeling about this one.
Hand Practice
Hand Practice - ink in sketchbook - 11" x 8"
Tried to make good on my post earlier to practice drawing hands. Got off to a pretty good start, then got distracted... whoops
Ah well, I'll try again later =)
01 17 10 Doodle
01 17 10 doodle - ink and coffee in sketchbook - 11" x 8"
Had a pretty bad case of painter's block this weekend... so I went to the local coffee shop and just doodled for a while.
note to self: draw more hands, lack of practice makes for shitty looking hands.
Hey Reddit
"Hey Reddit" - ink, watercolor and gouache on paper - 7" x 10"
I posted something in a thread on reddit a few days back and got a really positive response to my artwork. I figured it was the least I could do to paint something for the community -- as a thank you for all the nice comments and bump in traffic =).
(redditors love narwhals. but really, who doesn't?)
"Spark"
"Spark" - ink, watercolor and gouache on paper - 16" x 12"
First painting of the year! This was pretty satisfying to finish... it feels like many of the techniques I've been experimenting with are melding well =).
