A couple days behind, but I drew Jamtober Day 20 today: BUTTER.

My first sketch was butter melting in a fry pan, but then I decided to do a tower of butter sticks. If this had a title, it would be "butter lovers."

Jamtober Day 19 was Allegro.

A little tricky to come up with an idea, but I do love the violin so this was fun to draw.

Wish I knew how to play that instrument.

Oh and Day 18 Jamtober: Ebb

Tbh I wasn't as excited about this word of the day, but am okay with the result.

Jamtober Day 17: Facet

I did image searches of gemstone cuts & decided trying to get this 100% photo-realistic would be too time consuming, so opted to simplify what I saw instead. Very fun to draw!!

Still playing catch up --
Jamtober Day 16 was Juicy!

so obviously I had to go with chewing gum, right?

Jamtober Day 15 was Doll.

I didn't want to draw some kind of spooky doll, so I went the route of paper dolls instead. Does anyone else remember these?

Jamtober Day 14: Torpedo!

I actually really enjoyed drawing this because I do sometimes enjoy fishing... from a boat... in the summer... on a lake.

and it's so cute!

And a second concept with a more organic approach.

I added botanical illustrations around the lettering.

My latest #lettering piece of the line that Viktor says in S1 of #Arcane: "In the pursuit of great, we failed to do good."

First concept w/ a futuristic feel of points in time, new timelines, and breaking connections.

Love how this turned out!

Ope, forgot to post my other dinosaur piece --- Here is "Deinonychus curious"!

I really couldn't give up trying to draw claws. I'm glad I kept going!

#dinosaurArt #illustration #digitalArt #deinonychus

I titled this "I tried to draw a raptor, but gave up and drew a hadrosaur."

... because that's exactly what happened 😅.

I spent hours on fkn claws and hands and was like, "pffft hoof hands it is!"
