Photoshop Sketch-Lioness Portrait

I need to start updating this more regularly, so I'm going to start uploading things I don't normally upload, like photo shop sketches I do when I need a break from what I'm working on.

Photo Reference Used Most Definitely

Intuitive/Surreal

I just opened up photoshop and started drawing without thinking and somehow finished with this. Yay surrealism.

Zoo Scribbles

Went to the artists day at Como Zoo on Sunday morning. Here are some of my better sketches of the animals.

African Lioness
First attempt at watercoloring at the zoo. I need way more practice with that obviously.

South African Penguins

Lesser Kudu

Purse Lioness

"Dad, which one is the Mama lion?"
"The one with a purse."

The things people say at zoos never cease to amuse me.

The Pink Lioness Digital Painting

Drew this sketch of my character The Pink Lioness(TPL for short) during Honors Western Civ.

Then painted it in on Photoshop after class since I kind of liked it and I needed the digital painting practice. I'm not too happy with how the sky turned out but I foolishly painted the stars and moon on the same layer as the blue sky and didn't really want to fix it since I have many other things to work on, so I made it work. Otherwise, kind of happy with this I guess.

And I also made the header/banner for my blog during Honors Western Civ(heh, I can't help but draw in that class...it's so boring, it's making me understand why people do not enjoy learning history). I'm quickly realizing I need a better scanner...the one I have now is a piece of crap and makes everything blurry. Gah, just another thing I need to get. :/
