I'm happy to say I was wrong, my art does get better! Here's a bunch of stuff I did over the past few years.

Drawn from imagination (occasionally using some references for parts):

'Time' theme


'Flow' theme


'Dystopian Pets' theme


Animal merge draw-along


Animal merge draw-along


'Evil versions of heroes' theme, I think? Something like that.


I forget the theme but I called this a 'Rain Dragon' or something.


Darren the Dragon. Dabbin'.


'Dragon in a Jar' theme.


You need both sunshine and rain to make something grow. Won't grow with one alone.


Another animal merging draw-along.

Drawn directly from reference, or heavy referencing:

Sarah


A friend's cat


Sarah & Nan


Red-tailed Black Cockatoo


I think this might also have been a 'Time' theme.


FMA


'Spirit Animal' theme
(the above is heavily adapted as the original pic was a 'normal' jaguar while I wanted to get a spirit animal vibe, not exactly a direct reference but very heavy)


I forget this theme. Emotions? Maybe.

Don't dull the sparkle in your eyes! Eye practice.
