This is the last image from a short series for Menno Media for their Shine curriculum. This is in the morning by the Sea of Galilee. After Jesus had helped his disciples catch a miraculously large haul of fish (153 of them!) they roasted some and lounged around on the beach eating a breakfast of bread and fish.
This kid’s heading to the beach.
Okay, so full disclosure. I’m actually working ahead on these. You’re seeing them published on the right day in October, but I’m writing this on September 14th. I’m trying to do one of these a day, but I’m doing it ahead of time in case other work comes up to delay me or one turns out to take way longer than the half-day I’m trying to restrict myself to.
This one definitely took longer than I meant to spend. This was a two-day drawing. Mostly because it took me forever to figure out how I wanted to do those waves. I re-did them so many times. But I think I’m pretty much happy with it now.
Anyway, so today we have the prompt: disgusting. This whole drawing is pretty disgusting, right?
Okay, those waves were really bugging me. So I tried again. Much better now, I think. 🙂
It’s on shutterstock now, if you’re interested. Click here
I was playing with image composition and lighting. Not entirely happy with the waves, but a fun image to draw. 🙂
Here’s today’s work. Chapter 1 of The Genie Loophole by Paul Maguire.
Made these for Hart McLeod today. Next I’ll be drawing them some food. 🙂
Here’s a slightly soggy ladybug that I found on a rocky beach in Sister Bay, WI. It was a drizzly morning.
Aliyah, a fan who saw a previous post on this blog, requested “a cartoony crocodile lying on a river bank.” I’m not sure if this is exactly what she meant, but here it is.
