blindy mcblinderson

Yep, here's a couple more blind contours, but this time, they are inanimate objects! And a twist -- I've coloured one. But I used my eyes. Not literally, I mean I looked while colouring.

A seedling

Nothing too exciting, but here's my new painting in the early stages. Looks a bit orange-y here on the computer. Up next is a D&D painting.

Lurid colouring book cautionary tale

I drew this for my photoshop students. We teach them a neat little method for colouring an inked drawing, plus get into a bit of colour theory.

Guy putting the moves on is supposed to be a "Ted," though he sort of turned out looking like a certain pet detective.

New work

Oh my it's been a while, but here's what I've been up to lately in the art department. I'm still having fun with those blind contours, so I've taken them to the next level!
Above, a lino-cut I did at the Art Marathon last week (about 9"x12"), and, below, a painting I've been tinkering with for a few weeks (about 2.5'x2.5'). I'm happy with both and plan to do some more in both media.
And I've gotta get cracking on some more comic panel paintings too; I was drawn for a Rogue show in early November (pics to follow).
