Otter knight/cephalophore from a nice art sesh with friends.

Trying to practice line, form, and flow. It’s amazing how often imperfect and human beats perfect. Sometimes the flaws in a thing are how we find its edges.

Inked sketch from yesterday. Trying to really analyze Dürer and Schongauer for line quality and general vividness. Amazing how alive the lines of the old masters feel.

Time to break out the woodcut stuff again, methinks.

Timelapse of sketch. The symmetry tool is incredible for blades and other “perfect” objects.

Finding lots of habits in my art that I’m not loving. Time to go back to the drawing board - literally - and get closer to what I’m envisioning.

New year, new shattered skull. I hope you have a soft heart and a clenched fist as we wade into the muck together.
