Finished: New Manga - Series of 9

Holy Cow! It's 2:35am!!

Manga - Series of 9 (update)

I really liked the look of the ones with the yellow background when it was just that splash of color with black and white drawings....however...I was planing to do them in full color so wasn't very particular about always staying perfectly inside the lines...so I am going ahead with the full-color plan. I may do a later project with bold background and B&W drawings later though. Maybe for my next project.

I really like the small 4x4 canvases and wrapping the drawing around the sides. They would look great hung on the wall as a set of 9, with a couple inches or more between each one so you can really view the sides as well.

Big, Bad Bunny (another update)

New Manga - Series of 9

Work in progress...3 each of a different background color...still have to draw the last 2 and paint in the faces on all of them.

Another Bunny Update

Don't let the Pepto-pink scare you...it's just an under-color!

Manga Girl, unfinished

Being a little more free-form with this one. Also, using paint more, and not just to add 2 or 3 colors. It needs to be cleaned up.

Big, Bad Bunny (an update)

It's kind of in a weird spot right now...I painted in some undertones, etc and so the color balance seems way off. But, this is where I left off today.

SF Open Studios is a go!

The latest in a (projected) series of six. Just finished coloring this one in today.

In the light of day...

Looking at what I did last night.

Two Manga drawings (on corkboard). To be a series of up to six. Two down, up to four more to go!

...should I resin over them and seal it in, or leave it functional as a cork board? The corkboard is super-flimsy so not a great functional board in any case. Perhaps I will seal with something thinner and the buyer can choose.



























Took one of my bunny sketches, and split it onto 4 boards. It is now in line for resin...


















Same for this old "perspective study" I did. Resin. Needs off-set hanging.

My LATE, LATE, evening project...

Will I continue the series or fall asleep? Stay tuned...
