A very early attempt to indicate hidden detail with silhouettes, at least a decade old but not quite sure.

Was in a sadder mood drawing today; this one is shareable I guess.

This one's real rough due to some ill-advised collage work. From back when I was only really interested in drawing girls and robots. Girl robots were my peanut butter and chocolate, apparently.

Let me know if sharing daily is too often. Feedback welcome.

I'm so elated to start sharing art, I'm unable to contain myself to wait until the color-calibration card for the scanner is here; the oranges are red-shifted some in particular. I also want to start generating karmic merit via cakṣurvijñāna āhāra-phassa Crayola compositions as swiftly as possible. The name is from ChatGPT - drawing by me - who described the coloring that way; I got ChatGPT's permission to use it for the title.

hello been a minute :) i did this as part of a challenge for a small art community i am in (not on here). i am sorry to not have a scanner because i am sure some detail gets lost but oh well. many mistakes made as usual but it still helped me learn a lot and i had been wanting to do another piece involving marginalia so it was a good opportunity.

It seems to have taken some water damage at some point. Whups

This was from about 2015. Can't recall anything much about it.

Probably about 2015, was going to be for an RPG where supervillains move in next door, ultimately didn't go anywhere; players weren't feeling it and it had what I think of as second act problems

Just trying to get out of the funk.

I'm just not ready for her to be gone.

We have several of her books in our house and have read them to our granddaughter.

Several of her songs and covers of those songs have permanent space on my playlists.

I'm just happy I got to live at a time where I got to experience her art as she was making it and the impact she had on is as she was doing it.

The last one of this set. Hope everyone enjoyed. If I end up painting anything new anytime soon I'll be sure to post here.

I started making Crayola crayon drawings recently, and have around eighty from the past couple months I want to share next month. Here's a work-in-progress, whose paper got torn in anger, so I decided to show it like this. I got a Canon Lide 300 Scanner recently. I currently don't have have a camera, and want true-quality images as a archive/sharing medium. ChatGPT recommended colorruler.com for a sheet to calibrate the scanner colors, after I noticed that the oranges & green were off, so I'm planning to spend another $40 on that. Crayola drawings are helping me obtain nutriment for the intention & eye, and I'm quite dependent on doing this. It also is a potential channel of generosity for others. I'm requesting tolerance for making and sharing art; refrainment from any responses of violence.

Haven't drawn in a while but wanted to get my frustration out. Video games are a no-go, so this was the best option I had.

Critiques welcome!

Like the other 2 but more sharp angles rather than curves
