Rain Rain

It's pretty hot where I am today so having a little rain this way might be a pretty good idea actually. 

Practice pieces

 I didn't have a lot of time to work on much last night, so I took a few precreated items and added a few new simple shapes to create this as a quick web design idea. I really like putting pages together like this and working on my placement. I definitely need that kind of practice and it's been very inspiring so far. :)  I'd have never imagined that trying to think of a web page design would give me so many ideas. LoL!

Just something silly I created.

A few people seemed to like the mouse creature from one of my previous doodle pages so I attempted this. (The original doodle had been resized and the rain and background had been added to the smaller version, so I opened up the larger version and had to redraw everything to make it look better.) The rainbow background seems a bit off from the scene. Does it work or should it be darker and more sad/sinister? I kept the image as simple as it was in my doodle. And thinking about it now, I'd rather have the background with some sort of edging detail or pattern. So I may still revise this a bit. I wouldn't mind expanding it even into something of a larger illustration actually.

With just a chance of rain.

Just some more practice pieces. Did a couple of variations with this, though I didn't care for how it turned out like I thought I would. Guess I just need to keep practicing. ;) Happy Monday!

Rain drops keep falling...

Poor Bunny. I

'm not chinese, but I've been told it's the year of the rabbit. And since I love rabbits, I obviously am using this as an excuse to draw as many bunnies as possible. XD So hope you've enjoyed all the bunnies so far! And spring should be coming in full force soon! Yay! <3

...and then it rained....

It's been raining quite a bit this week, which I guess is what perhaps partly inspired this piece? Although it was more inspired by this talented artist I came across recently. Either way, here's what my head came up with.

Under the sea...

Well, I guess this post is appropriate, seeing as how it's been pouring down rain here today. (I'm not complaining though. We definately needed the rain.) As with most of my pics, I did this one over the weekend. I originally drew a really cute sketch of this, but seeing as how my sketches never match my final work, this one doesn't look anything like it. However, I do have a work in progress piece I started first that looks very similart to my sketch. I used the "Scrapbooking" method on it, while this is a painting I did in acrylic.

Is it just me or do drawings of octopuses look much cuter than the real thing? :)
