24 Days of Art

Join me in congratulating Earth for making another successful orbit around the sun. Good job, Earth!

I made up my own challenge and decided to do 24 days of art last month. The goal: draw/paint something or work on an unfinished piece for the first 24 days of December, and I am happy to report that I DID IT! If you remember my post in May when I lamented over the fact that I wasn’t as prolific as I used to be, 24 days of art helped me overcome that difficulty.

With out further adieu, here is the result of December’s challenge.

All
Mars
Nature

The Aurora Mountains

Inspired by the one and only Bob Ross! I learned so much from him.

American River

This is based on a photo I took during my July trip to my home state of California. It's not finished yet, but it was so much fun to finally get this one started.

Alice of two worlds

My character Alice from my unfinished story set in the world of Sisters. What would you be like on other worlds?

Mars & Starfury

A tribute to two of my favorite things: Mars and Babylon 5's Psi Corps. The Black Omega squadron soars through Mars' atmosphere into the great beyond.

MCRN: Self portrait

Because I can, ha ha!

A Winter Escape

A fun painting that I had a great time working on and completing. A family of bears marches through the snow as the frozen lake glimmers in the moonlight.

Admiral Smith of the MCRN

A tribute to The Expanse, Mars, the MCRN, and of course Smith from The Man in the High Castle

Windy Beach

One of my first attempts at oil painting. This was a learning experience for sure!

Elf with blue hair

Something fun and different, an ode to the many elves I drew in the early 2000s.

The Picards

A sketch for a friend!
