Based this on a Pinterest pic I can no longer find. Thought it was cute.

Been a long time since I’ve done watercolor. Transitioned away from WC to pursue a more contemporary style that fit the type of work I was pursuing—humor, pop-sensibility. And it’s served me well for this time.
But I may begin a transition back. Lots of uncertainties lately.

My brother took me to the mall movie theater in 1977 and I fell in love. Afterward, I came home and grabbed the flashlight and played laser swords for the rest of the afternoon. Ultimately, I went to see that movie about 14 times before it left the theaters.

It took me five times to get the line work close to what I was happy with.

Gotta new post up on Patreon. You can download a PDF of the opening pages of a story I was messing around with. Come get your Cold War on!

You clearly have extraordinary taste. 🧐

I’m starting it off slow because I’m just dipping my foot in the Patreon pool and it’s a little intimidating.

Be patient with me. Be gentle.

I started a Patreon.
PSD files, process vids, Q&As about work, incl. picture book illustration. I may offer feedback for those interested.
If watching an illustrator fumble thru a career transition sounds fun: complete w failed attempts, questionable artistic choices, then come hang out. Link in bio

Emu got an upgrade. Wasn’t happy with the shapes or proportions. I think this one hits a nicer balance of both.

Wow! This is such a lovely piece. The palette is wonderful and I love the character and the subtlety of the background. Amazing!

Totally agree with you on this. 👍
