Flourish

I did the sketch for this about a year ago. The sketch sat around in my computer folder until last week when I decided to tackle it and turn it into a daily doodle project. What was supposed to take only a day to finish up turned into two days, then three, and then finally a week. I guess I seriously got sidetracked while working on it!





I tried out using halftones for this piece, and I think the results were decent.

I've come to realize that I've been hopping onto new/different projects too often. Working on different pieces simultaneously isn't as effective as I thought it was, so I'm going to try to focus on one piece at a time.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Here's my attempt at a Valentine's Day themed illustration! Ravens are monogamous :v






This piece feels like the first piece that I've finished in a really long time. Lately my personal projects have been piling on, but I haven't prioritized well on which projects I need to finish first; I would work on one project and when I happen to sketch out a new idea, I'll start working on the new idea a little more and the old project stops progressing. At the moment I am simultaneously working on 3 pieces that I've been working on for quite awhile, so hopefully I can get most of them finished before the end of the month!

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!
