Just another case of “put a pen in your hand and see what happens.” Playing with a quicker, more simplistic style for comics and life doodles. 🙂 Not quite there with this one yet, but on the right track.

Arabella
I know I’m bombarding the internet with Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell fan art, but I don’t care. There are too many good characters in this thing. Here’s how I imagine Arabella Strange. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Learning and Ink
A little fashion sketch that I did to try to get more comfortable with my brush pen. If possible, I think I actually over-inked this one, but it didn’t turn out as terribly as I thought it would. Live, learn, and grow.
Lady in Blue
Still playing around with painting first, then sketching. Also trying some monochrome. Just used ultramarine paint and an ultramarine watercolor pencil on this one!
Coat Weather
Cute outerwear is one of the many reasons that I am glad it’s finally Fall. 🙂
Levitating Carrie
A few weeks ago, I posted a fall illustration on Instagram inspired by Carrie Hope Fletcher’s levitation video at the Dr. Strange premiere. Finally got around to doing a proper scan of it! This was SO much fun. Happy early Thanksgiving!
Messy River
Oh, River. You’re hard to draw, but you’re fun. I thought the messier watercolor splatters and fluid pose would be appropriate for the character.
Flower Doodles
Sometimes it’s good to just put a pen in your hand and see what happens.
Poldark Scene Study
Are any of you guys watching Poldark this fall? It’s so moody and relaxing to watch. I’ll probably do some more detailed character work soon (I posted a picture of Warleggan, the villain of the piece, a few weeks ago on Instagram), but this little painting was to try to figure out those gorgeous Cornish cliffs.
Ladies of Shakespeare: Juliet
“My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee
The more I have, for both are infinite.” -Romeo and Juliet, Act II, Scene 2.
It was only a matter of time before I got around to this gal, right? Trying out some new gouache and a tiny new liner brush. 🙂
