April of Robots, Day 1 (w/ music)

(( title is a joke, I'm not planning to continue march of robots into April… but I will probably spend the first part of the month cleaning up/expanding some of the projects I didn't quite finish in a day))

040119 Commission piece that was sent off today. I have a sale going on through my Big Cartel site right now. I’ll keep the price at 30 for the month of April. 8.5x11 made on @hammermill with @otakufuel supplied Copics. Also robot 32 because I’m an over achiever...... yeah right. #marchofrobots2019 #marchchallenge #marchofrobots #aprilofrobots not quite the same ring. #nintendobot #robinintendo #artcommision #nunleyart https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvu9CVmAdyN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11mhcb825fc7m

Happy Caturday, new and old friends! I was going for robot wizardress in this speed test with my Gasenfude from a few days ago but I got a bit carried away with the black. Uh. And maybe the boobs. They were supposed to be more mechanical but uh, my focus group here at Inkshift Industries HQ didn't quite see it that way. I might revisit this concept again. I hope you're all having a lovely day/night/morning, I'm going out for a lovely night with my darling to see Princess Mononoke on the big screen! #bestanimatedfeatureEver #fightme #datenight #mydarlingrules #somuchblack #couldntgoback #lololol #icrackmyselfup #illustration #ink #copic #gasenfude #robot #aprilofrobots #marchofrobots #artistsoninstagram #copicmarkers #robotboobs #idontjudge #caturday #saturday #blue #yellow #pdx #portlandartist #portland #madeinpdx #inkshift #okbye (at Laurelhurst Theater)

Happy Tax day! Told you I was into little animals in big mechs. Here's a WIP of this li'l digging guy, working for the weekend! This was done with my trusty Winsor & Newton brush and India ink. Initially meant for March of Robots, I never got around to finishing him & I have too many pieces right now in various state of unfinishedness. I've been pretty stressed lately for many reasons (tax day one of them) and not enough drawing time/unfinished drawings only add to that stress. I'm not one of those people that turns stress into great art. So I have been forbidden by my ❤️darling to start any more pieces until I finish those. I second that very much. ✨🙌🏼 In the mean time, enjoy my little digger WIP, I promise I'll finish him soon!! Have a lovely day, all you lovely people. Go forth and be. #illustration #ink #artistsoninstagram #winsorandnewton #mech #robot #marchofrobots #aprilofrobots #whythehellnot #raven #bird #tachikoma #digger #ghostintheshell #wip #doodle #sketch #tinyanimals #bigmechs #thatsmythingrightnow #portland #pnw #portlandartist #madeinpdx #pdx #inkshift #tired #okbye (at Pearl District, Portland)

Happy Caturday Eve!! I am finishing up the pieces I left unfinished recently per my darling's instructions, so I hereby introduce you to this li'l dude who's very happy for it to be almost weekend! Ready to get down. Do the robot, if you will. Who knows what robot adventures lie before him this weekend that may or may not be mine! Like robot sleeping in! Robot watching Kiki's Delivery Service! Robot errands! Robot sitting in the backyard under his new robot patio set! Robot chillaxing on the couch with his human darling and hoping he doesn't crush her in a moment of unmonitored passion! I said unmonitored. Ha! Anyway. I hope you all had a lovely week and may your weekend be amazing! Who here has the best plans? Step forward and claim your prize of my incredulity! #illustration #ink #copic #copicgasenfude #gasenfude #winsorandnewton #brushesarewhereitsat #robot #marchofrobots #aprilofrobots #whythehellnot #blackandwhite #friday #caturdayeve #yellow #mech #dancing #artistsoninstagram #portland #pnw #portlandartist #pdx #madeinpdx #dotherobot #dance #love #dontcrushyourdarling #dontdoit #inkshift (at Portland, Oregon)

And there you have it: my first watercolour piece on this blessed day of Caturday. What do you think? I started it last night while listening to and watching the always lovely and entertaining @alisavysochina draw & colour her many witches. I learned a lot from her great live stream earlier in the afternoon so I decided to put it into practice. And practice I did. She makes it look so easy! I spent hours layering and blending and adding. Biggest things I learned that watercolour can be quite forgiving! I love erasing my messy patches with water, blending mistakes and I do enjoy adding texture with a simple napkin. My biggest problem so far I think is mixing the right colours. My values are all over the place but all in all I'm quite pleased. I need a proper palette thingie, currently using the plastic protective sheet my water colours came in. Next one I'll try and do quicker, following Alisa's example with a base coat and some darker tones. I want to achieve a cleaner and lighter look with less coats. Onwards!!#gettingoverthathump #nothingtobeafraidof #justdoit #maybeyoullfuckitup #maybeyoullearnfromit #itsok #ilovemydarling #keeponkeepingon #thanksmel #watercolor #paint #kuretakegansaitambi #robot #robots #marchofrobots #inapril #whynot #aprilofrobots #sure #blue #caturday #saturday #experiment #flowers #portland #portlandartist #artistsoninstagram #madeinpdx #pnw #pnwonderland (at Sesame Donuts)
