Dieting tips #art

I have found myself drawing the things I can no longer eat on my low carb diet. Not sure it’s uber helpful but it’s been oddly helpful for me. 

  

I used to think drawing a pic of food would just make me want that food but not so much now. You? 

Another set of eyes. #art

My husband frequently helps me fix pieces and tells me when to move on. He also looks through my book and tells me when to revisit. While I’ve been off my day job I’ve done lots of doodles but kind of viewed them as mostly crap. He pulled out 4 pieces for me to revisit and labeled some changes for me to make. I’ve fixed one of them.

Shhhhhh, I’m hunting apocalyptic shtuff part 2 #art #copic

I posted the line art of this yesterday.  Then I transfered it to strathmore Bristol vellum 500 series. It’s my general paper of choice when working with copic markers.  Copic markers have such nice deep colors. If you pick three markers with the same first number and the second numbers all about 2 apart it’s an easy way to blend colors and get nice shadows.  I used so much g99 to get that color that at one point the marker nib was white again. I never suspected I’d use so much dark green in my life.
