Coloring on the table
Drawing of my son sitting on top of our table coloring one of those giant coloring pages. Just a quick pencil sketch in my sketchbook.

Main St in blue
My idea with this was to play around with really dark foregrounds and light backgrounds. I thought I would use sepia for the foreground but ended up picking navy blue at the last minute. Although the streets were dry at the time I took the picture that inspired this painting, the blue gives the streets…

Keep smiling
Keeping the Zoom portraits going with another one using a deep red instead of the usual sepia. Done using Derwent Inktense watercolors and water pens, along with a Uninball Eye Micro pen for the outlines. Smiles go a long way. Keep smiling all. 😃

Twisting branches
I’ve been noticing the branches of the trees here in Scotland all winter, how they are angular and curved at the same time, and have been wanting to draw and paint them in more detail for awhile.

Slightly amused (figure #69)
Keeping the Zoom portrait series going with a coworker looking slightly amused at something that was said. This one is a larger format (A4) than previous portraits (A5) mostly because I ordered the wrong size replacement. The extra space was pretty nice to work with though so happy accident I think.

Two hands (figure #66)
This is from a photo I took of my son rolling around and playing one day. I liked the angles of the shot and thought it would be good to try for practice.

Red panda (figure #65)
Breaking the mold here of human-only subjects. A little watercolor of one on my daughter’s favorite animals, from a figure she has. She wanted me to do this one for her friend back in the states.
