We went to see "Fantastic Beasts" in late November and apparently, my hubby went Christmas shopping immediately after that. He got me the screenplay for the movie - which reminded me again how awesome...

The tree is actually still standing, and still has all its baubles. It's Joseph that keeps getting knocked over by Loki impersonating an ox. I hope that's about to stop now that I've sprayed baby Jesu...

Drawn for a friend's daughter, who sewed me a little pouch for the money that a teacher constantly has to collect.
And literally the first time I managed to nail Han Solo 100%. Definitely an o...

I decided to forget about staying light on this stupid paper, and went for gouache and coloured pencil instead to finish this up. Look at the fluffy! ^^

... and I found another paper I hate working on. Meh. It's probably excellent because it behaves like Arches, but since Arches hates me, so does this.

Resovled to paint lighter this time. I always get so dark and so bright so quickly; hope to keep it lighter now.
... I have no idea how that sentence could end. XD Not that it matters. This idea came to me full-blown together with the title, and no idea what it's about apart from the fact that it's super cute.&n...

Might as well let you see all that eye-ruining detail. ;) Painted with a magnifying glass much of the time.
Edit: Open in new tab to actual see it though. Stupid resizing. ;)
Finally!

Working with a magnifying glass again.
Also, I stopped recording - this is another of those pieces that require every available brain cell.
"Take my goddamn f***ing socks off", Rebecca told me.
I think I'm getting there.

Hey friends! Day 1 post-headcold. I got so freakingly little done this week, but here are your freebies!
I also feel a sudden urge to paint foxes. Possibly in reenactment gear. I have absolutely no ...

I'm recording this, though :)

Last Tuesday in SmArt School, our portfolio pages were reviewed - except mine, since I don't really have one! That bugged me so much that I've been putting together a new website, a clean portfolio, W...

Okay, dark clouds in watercolour definitely is something I need more practice with. This works much better now, I think.

For those of you who wondered where Loki was while I was painting - it was as I'd guessed - he was passed out on the bed.

Eärendil, Elwing, Elrond and Elros.
I want the title of this to start with "As much", so that it echoes "As little might be thought" but can't think of anything. Any ideas?

Timelapse vid for Blodeuwedd. The last fine-tuning half hour or so is missing, as both my batteries were spent by the end. >_<
