I may finally be over my art block. My doodles may be imperfect, but I'm drawing and enjoying it and that's all that matters.
They're being uploaded to Etsy as a digital download if you would like something to color. Follow the link in my bio to see my shop!

A paper divided into eight sections. Two sections have the title, while six others have different pen and ink illustrations. The title reads "Color my Doodles, by Kai Black" then it says "HowliteSketches" next to social media logos for Etsy, Instagram, and Tiktok. Though my Tiktok is inactive so I don't recommend it right now. The first illustration is a curled up fern with patterns around it. The second has abstract swirls and vine-like patterns. The third had abstract patterned swirls with different shapes inside. The fourth has curvy lines to mimic smoke rising, and has some different shading in the areas the lines form. The fifth has four-petaled flowers with triangular stamens and long tendrils coming from the center. The sixth and last has feather shapes with triangles and patterns inside, and shapes and patterns all around as well. A paper divided into eight sections.

The second has three wings with a dark background and feathers floating around. The third has a songbird standing on a background of leaves. The fourth has a single moth wing with shapes and textures. The fifth has a snake-like body with many scales on it and in the background.

The third has lines to suggest tree trunks and bark, with patterns resembling eyes in the tree bark. The fourth has abstract fern shapes with curved leaves and decorative spots around them. The fifth is an arrangement of seeded grass with long stalks and background swirls. The sixth and last has wavy lines to form a thick tree along the side, with wavy lines in the background to suggest waves, hills, the sky, clouds, etc. A paper photographed at an angle, divided into eight sections. It is still in progress and is the original paper I drew on. Two sections are blank, while six others have different pen and ink illustrations. The first illustration is upside down and has long leaves nestled together on a black background. The second is also upside down and has a bird skull, and some leaves and swirls around it. The third is right side up and has a black cat laying among abstract leaf shapes. The fourth is a tree and it's roots with leaves falling around it. The fifth is an arrangement of curved leaves and abstract shapes. The sixth and last has what look like Monstera leaves with veins running through them, and a black background with some curved sections that are left blank.

WIP of my latest project. I've drawn a lot of merged animals before but this one took some extra thought. It a musk ox merged with a Livingstone's Turaco. (Pictures included for reference)
I did some watercolor and will add pen and ink, and probably more watercolor after that to correct the color.
A watercolor painting in progress, picturing an animal with the form of a musk ox but the coloration of a green tropical bird. Two musk ox A Livingstone's Turaco, which is a tropical green bird found in Africa.

Some doodles from today. The anatomy isn't the best but meh. I still enjoyed making them, and with pen and ink you have to accept the mistakes.
Pen and ink doodle of a bird on a branch surrounded by leaves. There is heavy dark shading on the leaves below the bird, and the background is black. Pen and ink drawing of a moth wing with vines below it. The background is black and there is texture and pattern drawn into the wing.

Here are the final results of my 3-layer pen and ink project, it's based on the home of an OC I have. This has really helped me feel inspired again and remember the joy that drawing brings me. My long ass artists block may finally be over!

Here are layers 2 and 3 for my pen and ink project. I'm currently arranging it all and am excited to show the final results.
A pen and ink drawing. A pathway goes between some trees, the grass beside the pathway is filled with stones, and one of the trees has an ominous figure carved into it with deer antlers coming from the head. A pen and ink drawing. In the center of the paper there's a small arrangement of trees with the branches overhanging a small asymmetrical cabin. A pathway goes over a small stream and up to the cabin. The hillside under the cabin is covered in foliage.

A pen and ink project wip, there will be three or four total layers. I'm finishing up the first layer right now.
Full image of a black and white pen and ink drawing. Two trees stand on either side of a path, the ground has rocks along the path and artistic swirls formed on the ground with sticks. One of the trees has many wooden birdhouses. The previous image is zoomed in, it's a pen and ink drawing with a closeup of a fern at the base of the tree with the birdhouses.

I've never used Twitter before, so I'm not used to this social media format. But I'm excited to be here and hoping to share my art as I begin to make more of it. I'm planning to post traditional artwork, my cosplays, chainmail (which I am selling on Etsy), and other projects.
