It’s kind of sketchy and I think the arms look weird. Not worthy of the portfolio, but it’s still fun and refreshing. 🙂

Illustration Friday – Secret – 2
Lucky you, two Illustration Friday pieces this week. Don’t get used to it. 🙂
EDIT: This would be page 3 in the series. The next post has page 1 & 2.
Illustration Friday – Hitched
Perception – WIP
Yes, I’m still working on this one. The crowd scene is boring to draw, so I’m dragging my feet. But I thought I’d share this. This is the same character as an adult and as a child.
Illustration Friday: Jump
This week’s Illustration Friday prompt was jump. I was going to just repost my lovely swimmer children. But, then I decided to do a little more. For those of you who saw the work in progress sketches for these two, you might remember that these were not created for the same scene. But I decided to change that and combine them into one scene formatted for a magazine cover. So, I added a background and mocked up graphics for a Highlights Magazine. So, here’s the plain image and the Highlights mock-up below. Let me know what you think. 
I am not in any way affiliated with Highlights Magazine and this is not a real Highlights cover. Only an art sample.
Perception: Another WIP Sketch
And here you have the lineart for about half the final image…
Perception: WIP Sketches
A couple of bits from a piece I’m working on called Perception.
Jump In!
I think this is the final version. I’ll need to double-check the colors on my other computer, but it’s getting late tonight. I’ll just post it as-is. If the colors look a bit too bright, blame it on my laptop. I’ll make adjustments tomorrow if it needs it.
The font is a distorted, gradient-overlaid, embossed version of Komika Boo, by Larry Yerkes. That’s a free font I got from some free font site. I’d put a link to the author’s Myspace site, but I looked at it and, YIKES. Not linking directly to that. But feel free to put his name into Google and find him if you want. He goes by WolfBainX.
Anyhow, here’s the image:
