Hope you've had your insulin, cause it's that sweet! http://linzarcher.deviantart.com/art/Tea-for-Two-95817828 This is a second attempt at this concept. The first one, I did not have proper reference for the teacup or pot till I realized that I had inherited the set depicted here from my grandmother. Unfortunately I liked the fairy better in the original, so I photoshopped the old fairy on the new picture. After doing the second ink I was intent on printing the ink out on watercolor paper, but my printer would not cooperate, so I printed the second rendition onto the Bristol Board and went for colored pencils instead. I've found that scanning the ink and saving it separate, means that I not only have the line art, but if I mess up I have not lost the original and can try again. It's been a nifty discovery, that apparently other artists are also doing these days.

This drawing, I completed for the cover of Catacombs and Photographs, written by Brandy Schwann. It is done in pencil on Bristol Board. The book can be found here. http://www.apexbookcompany.com/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=39

Okay, so lesson learned... I thought that I was proficient enough with the color pencils now that I could just use normal paper and expect it to turn out the same. I was WRONG. So it's not up to par, *pouts* when the paper stopped responding like I wanted to, I just sorta quit so it's not as finished as it should be. Anyway here it is, Codex, Felicia Day's character from The Guild. The Guild http://www.watchtheguild.com/ is a webseries written and starring Felicia Day, who is teh awesome. You may have seen her in Dr. Horrible http://www.drhorrible.com/.

Drawn in graphite on 9x12 Bristol Board. I had the hardest time naming this one. The desire to pun was far too great, but I only made a slight illusion to what I wanted to name it. This was not an illustration for anything, but it seems to want to tell a story, and I like that about it. The female model was a pic of a young me. I don't remember where the horse came from. The background was inspired by a drawing done by Larry Elmore http://www.larryelmore.com/ called approaching storm, but as I do not have Larry's patience, it's not nearly as well executed.
