Another Drawing of Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon:

Drawings of Dragons

The last two are the same dragon drawn twice, because I didn't know if I wanted to color it or not. I'm still not sure if I will shade the last one, :).

Earth without Art is just "Eh"

Drawing Of Legolas from Lord of the Rings : Updated

Or the Hobbit, or whatever.

Anyway, I did this one last night, and I learned a lot about shading while doing it, :).

Update: My Sister just pointed out that the string to his bow went around his arm, and it is not supposed to... so, here is the correct version, :).

Also, it has better lighting, :).

 

How to paint with Coffee: My First Attempt at Coffee Painting

First I did a simple sketch on water color paper...

Then masking-taped it to a piece of cardboard.

I took a cheap paint brush and did a light wash with a six ounces-water-to-two-tablespoons-cup of coffee. After I made the coffee, I diluted, but I forgot to see how much, :P. 

I put a little more coffee into the cup of diluted coffee and went over her dress and hair bow.

I used the undiluted cup to do her hair, but it didn't turn out very dark, :/. 

I took a paint brush filled with coffee, and spattered it over the picture for some interest.

Her hair kept "running", so I had to watch that, and wipe it up with a paper towel once in a while.

That's what it looked like when it was done last night.

This morning, I redid her hair, let it dry, and repeated that until I thought her hair was dark enough. But, for some reason, it got lighter as it dried the last time. I think it might be because it was in the light. Also, I forgot to watch her hair, so it ran all over the page, hahaha!

I don't like the way her hair turned out, but I do like her dress! My Dad is helping me figure out how to do the coffee correctly, so after we figure it out, I'll try to share the technique with you, :). 

 

This was my first try, and I had to figure it out by myself, because I couldn't find a tutorial on how to do it. So, I'm hoping to try again sometime soon, :).

Drawing of Scar from the Lion King

Watercolor Sunset

This was my first watercolor painting that worked, :). I used a tutorial from a book called Watercolor Essentials by Birgit O'Connor, and also some help from my Dad, :). I'm planning on putting up a new Tu-Tori-al soon, but I can't decide what to do one on, :). If anyone has suggestions, those would be appreciated! :).
