Little painting of Pluto and Charon :)

A triumphant return

Was inspired by some of JC Leyendecker's early medieval paintings. It's always nice to take a little break and study.

Anyway so I’m going to make it my crusade to try and at least speak with someone about the Col-Erase availability thing

I really think a lot of us are missing out on a product I know a lot of people used professionally and as beginners

Maybe we can even make a swap program or something if it doesn’t go anywhere. I have a lot of colors that I just don’t use and would be totally willing to trade

Either way I’m trying to get their attention on my insta so if you want to see that nonsense my @ is adderstonesart

Yeah

I went on Prismacolor’s website in their Col-Erase listing and the comments are just other professional artists begging and pleading for them to sell singles of every color again. Ten to twenty poor souls in the same predicament I find myself. I have never felt so connected to strangers on the internet so much I feel this in my soul. I went to Ebay like some of the comments were suggesting and did manage to find a couple greys, but not black. Please. Please almighty Prismacolor bring back the Col-Erase pencils in singles again. In my youth, I could walk into a Michaels and buy them without another thought. Now I can barely find them on reseller sites.

Tuna loves my scanner, she always hops onto the desk to watch

I was quite literally drawing the last line 🤧

[adderstones]

been really into older fairytale art lately

[adderstones]

Sometimes. The art has hands. ✍️

A saga of trying to bring this set to life. Digital, trace + ink, watercolor, ink-wash, destruction. The last pic is how I started over with charcoal in a much smaller format, with some changes. I haven’t drawn Lady Olwen with her mail hood up in a long time so that was fun. I need to study armor padding sets more as well, in order to accurately portray armor I think.

I am happy with the charcoal pieces though. I hope i can finish them and move on. Some of my favorite pieces have just been in that little sketchbook. The process is no fuss, fairly quick, and the medium portrays a lot. Lately I am not looking to make any masterpieces

Finally able to use dip pens again!!

side by side comparison of these two. a good reminder that progress and improvement aren't always linear
