Artfully: Day 16
So… I was writing. And I had no inclination to leave the house, so I didn’t. And I figure out why I’ve been topping out at 5K words a day, which means tomorrow I’ll be experimenting with where I write, as my desk and laptop as it’s set leads to pain after about 1K words…

Artfully: Day 15
Halfway through my challenge to create new art every day in December. I will come back to the bunny vs. dragon story, but I’m still working on the second challenge that’s been meshed with the first. In order to learn the new camera better, I was challenged to work in RAW format, and use only…

Artfully: Day 14
I’ve been challenged to stretch my camera skills by shooting with only one lens setting in a day, using RAW format, and testing what different lighting does. But because today was a very odd day, that went… sideways. I did manage to do some shooting. But I didn’t manage much if any post-processing, with one…

Artfully: Day 13
Today, for my mother. Mom mentioned she hadn’t seen a lot of photos of my hometown, and I realized I tend to focus on the little things when I look through the camera, not the bigger pictures. So while we were out this morning, I took a few shots. I’ll do more when I have…

Artfully: Day 12
Today’s dragon was created with Adobe Illustrator, which is… I don’t know if I like this. Oh well. Work has been progressing nicely on Dragon Noir, I’ve added 3800 since yesterday, and plan to do another 2000 tonight. Wizbun drew a sigh of relief when the flames from the tiny dragon stopped, and then dropped…

Artfully: Day 10
In between exams today, I took the time to walk by the river and bother the ducks. It was starting to flurry, but the exercise and time to unwind was worth the effort and cold.

Artfully: Day 9
Continued from yesterday… Wizbun stood staunchly, gripping his staff tightly, as the bright red box began to smoke slightly. At the lower corner, the paper turned black, and then burst into flames. Frantically, Wizbun aimed his magic staff at the conflagration, extinguishing it with a quick blast. But now the box let forth an angry…

Artfully: Day 8
I doodled this, and then started to ink, while I was studying for today’s exam. It comes with a story. I’m not sure how I’ll finish off the art, yet. Might take it into Illustrator and give it some depth, just inking will not be great for the wizardry and smoke coming out the…

Artfully: Day 7
And today I did get to paint people! It was cold, but at least the sun was shining. There were songs, and jingle bells, and me, with cold fingers, making spirits brightly visible on faces.

Artfully: Day 6
Today I was hoping to have painting with a different media to show you, but it was bitingly cold and not many wanted to have their faces painted. I solaced myself with the camera, and so you have a montage of photos to look at, instead. And now I’m going to try and finish warming…

Artfully: Day 5
Now you will see what I can do with a digital painting, still working on the idea for my son, this is Rex, the golden retriever. Based on the Little Man’s description, he’s being bullied at school, so he looks a bit insecure. It’s the beginning of a new school year, so there are lots…

Artfully: Day 4
On the fourth day of Christmas, I gave to my true love: five dogs, and a cat. I’m sketching dogs for my son, who wants me to illustrate a story he’s trying to write, about five dogs who are in fifth grade together, a cat who is their friend against the odds, and another dog…
