Artist's Comments

A while ago, I had pretty much gotten brain locked with my oils that I had been doing and found that I simply couldn't paint any longer. After a few months, I decided to play around with some watercolor to see if that would unlock my mind and get the gears turning again. This is what came of it, a watercolor and ink of one of the characters I made for City of Heroes.

Medium: Watercolor and india ink on multimedia board

My first watercolor is your fave? Damn, what am I doing wrong... getting worse? :p

But, yup, this is my mane... about the only character I have time to play... but she allows me to cut lose and leave my shredded sanity and that annoying logic thing behind for a few hours... all good :)

Funny, cuz for the longest time, my first piece with my WACOM was my favorite as well.

Sometimes pieces thereafter are about stretching.

This piece just...rocks so hard. It rocks itself right out of the door of rocking and rocks its way down the freakin block. I love your watercolors #_#

Ah, thanks! She'd have to be my favorite character I've done to date (for obvious reasons) but the pose took me a little while. I ended up squatting on the corner of my kitchen counter with the timer set on my camera just to get it right :D
