Renn's Fingerpaint Art! 👉👈

[Firesquids]

Found a nice small canvas, my acrylics, and turned on some Studio Ghibli music today. Anyone recognize the movie this is from?

I guess I can add pet portraits to my list of accomplishments! I made a transparent signature for @hestu (without the gray background):

I can't even see the stats on how many hours it took me (once again, ran my iPad until it hit 0% battery), but I'm fairly proud of the end product, considering it started from a sketch with no tracing. Thank goodness Hestu had so many reference photos!
And at the encouragement of @mocha. I tried out new brushes (I usually stick with the default HB6 sketch, followed by studio pen for lineart and inking, and the default round brush for color and airbrush for shading)-- so I ventured out with the watercolor options and they are great for this feathered effect!
I started an art instagram, and wanted this to be the launch image, but realized the proportions wouldn't display well on insta... boo...

These are both stupid gorgeous.

These are both stupid gorgeous.

I totally appreciate the kind words! I gave away all my canvas paintings at my old job, and now I wish I had them for my office wall when working from home. Gotta start over!

Hit a wall recently on how to improve my work.
I am in over my head on a project I promised for the hubby and it is delaying the commissions I have here.
sneak peek:

he loves fire emblem heroes and wanted me to draw his team with the specific headgears he equipped them with... that game has stupid gorgeous art and it has been a bear trying to draw in my style and feel satisfied.

Art trade with @0ni

We were talking about the street fashion vibe from the refs

Spoiler: references

And I have to say, the color palette for their fashion is beautifully vibrant and stylish. I had fun experimenting with different brushes (and have basically decided not to touch the gouache brush ever again). Thanks for letting me paint your rep!

I'll say it again here - THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL I love everything about it, you've completely made my day here, I'm so happy and I can't stop staring at it. Thank you so much

Just amazed by your talent

I just realized nobody will see my flag entry unless they are on the green Froggy Chair team. Check it outtttttt:



I finally figured out how to make that fuzzy lineart all the cool people have: use the charcoal or marker brushes! Duh.

I'm also attempting to draw a green villager everyday for the cheer thread. You can see Admiral, Annicotti, and Big Top so far (along with anything else I make in the future for TBTWC) here:

Aww that is so sweet!
I haven't opened a shop because I'm very far behind on art trades / projects and I have no idea how much to charge. It depends how complex of a drawing you want, but I'm probably booked until June.

 

[Rowbowkid800]

Ok well then can you add me to a waiting list?

For sure!

For @Snowifer , a fanart of Simon from her comic, Island Beginnings.

I tried a bunch of new techniques in this one, and for once started with the background instead of the main subject. At one point, I was debating whether to make Simon a chibi or not:

Spoiler: chibi vs. full proportions

I learned how to make the forest scenery very quickly from

Derek Dominic D'Souza, who has great reels on scenery techniques in general.

Some details I like:

Teehee, Simon's little blushy blush for beetles!

The beetle's shiny butt as it flies through the light:

The amount of detail you add in your art always astounds me ♡ I absolutely love your most recent piece!!

 

[jadetine]

Last minute birthday present for @mocha. ! I couldn't link the profile comment.


I'm not a master of anything, but I find it really hard to deal with chibis for some reason. They are just so much cuter when made by other people! Knowing that I fear these, I've started grinding them to level up... lol.
Best wishes to my bud, mocha.

 

[mocha.]

You are just the loveliest person.. the amount of time, effort, and thought you put into each artwork astounds me every time! Also I think chibis could definitely be a new venture for you I think you got everything spot on!!
thank you once again for making my birthday that little bit extra special ️️

Are trade with @Aquilla ! Click for full-size image.


I was toying with the perspective tools in Procreate. They are not bad, but the result is still not quite what I was expecting.
I also tried some post-processing with the colors to try to give a more sunset feel, but I'm worried it looks too yellow and like... Jaundice-y. hahhaha

Some of my favorite deets:

The bouquet!

I don't know how @airysuit makes such lovely floral pieces without going insane. What a struggle!

The eye-lights!

I've been seeing lots of chibis with irregular (star or heart shaped highlights) in their eyes, and I think I'm gonna make this a thing, even if it's not realistic.

Peekaboo! Your custom drink machine is cute and I should've put it in front of the snack machine:

Also, I started with the Tetris path and it was a sign I was procrastinating like the Spongebob episode...

Renn, that looks soo beautiful! I love the details you did! Also, your chibis are so cute, especially in their own way.
