Did some watercolour doodling and ended up painting this.
It is now available on Etsy as a digital file.

Sometimes I’m All Over The place
Finally I made a drawing that I prefer to the sketch that preceded it. I usually find the lines of the sketches more flowing. I used a dark brown PITT Artist Pen for the lines and then coloured with promarkers and watercolours (eyeballs and shirt).
My Designs at Spreadshirt
I’ve dusted off my spreadshirt acccount and updated it with some new designs. I added a T-shirt section in the Stuff Store.

A Dress for a Arachnean Female
Did some sketches of outfits that I would like to wear but do not dare. I like the way this one turned out. It’s done with coloured pencils in my sketch book. She could be a comics character; killing villains in secret by sending them black boxes with poison gas or spiders or something. The dress is far too nice to be given to a bad character….
Make Comics Not War on my handpainted Tee
If all generals had their own webcomic with weekly updates this planet would probably be a lot nicer to live on.
I’ve had some fun making my own handpainted T-shirts. So far one for my daughter and one for me. I used pens for a central drawing and then paint to splash all over.
First I sketched with a pencil in a way that I won’t mind if it doesn’t wash away. I then used Giotto Decor textile and Milan textile pens. It’s hard to get a clean sharp line and the felt tip gets looses fibres quite quick. I used Panduro’s Palette to paint with. It’s thick and nice like gouache but I diluted it with water to make it easier to get that Pollock effect. The effect I ended up with was a bleed. It’s really difficult to get it to mix with water. My next project will probably exclude the pens and water and just use the paint as ink.
