My Art from Inktober 2022 (Part Two)

Click here to read part one. 

Hello everyone, 

It's now time for part two of my Inktober series, so let's begin. 

The Official prompt list for Inktober: 

Day #11 Eagle. I used this as another way for myself to practice drawing birds, since I've really wanted to get back into the habit of drawing them. 

Day #12 Forget. I drew Oceana again, I had drawn her before last year for Inktober as well. The reason I associated her with the idea of forgetting, was because I wrote a song (which I will post later) that she sang called "Forget." Here is a sneak peek for it: 

Smell the salty perfume of the ocean, 

Forget your long-lasting devotion, 

To the place you called “home,” 

For to the ocean you are to roam. 

Day #13 Kind. I took this to mean "one of a kind." So I decided to draw this character I came up with a while ago, who is a unicorn-girl in her unicorn form. She can switch back and forth between being a unicorn and a human. Here's the post where I first created her.  

Day #14 Empty. Mediating came to mind, since the leader of the mediation I'm doing often talks about emptiness when it comes to meditation. 

Day #15 Armadillo. I decided to take this literally and draw an Armadillo. 

Day #16 Fowl. Similar to the one above, I drew a Guinea Fowl.

Day #17, Salty. My thought process for this one was that the sea was salty, therefore it would relate to pirates. In the end I drew Long John Silver from Treasure Island. 

Day #18 Scrape. I didn't really interpret the prompt as written. Instead, I drew a handkerchief-- a scrap (instead of scrape) of fabric. 

Day #19 Ponytail. I decided to draw Elm. This one is a mixture of ink and watercolor. 

Day #20 Bluff. Given that my D&D character, Jinx is a rogue so obviously a liar, I decided to draw him for this prompt.

Some Textile Art Pieces

I have recently started doing embroidery, it is a way for me to de-stress. I found when I do it I focus on what I'm sewing and end up forgetting why I'm stressed. 

A small update, you may have already noticed (since I did put it on my sidebar), I created a second YouTube Channel for my artwork (ex. Art, embroidery, and animation) called "Quinley's Art." You can check it out here 

But back to this post...along with photos of the art pieces, I will be posting videos of them, too. The videos will basically allow you to look at the art in different ways. 

Let's begin: 

This art piece is a mixture of embroidery, COPIC markers, and figures from pre-existing art pieces. The red haired figure is from John William Waterhouse's painting "Ophelia (1894)" and the other figure is from A painting of a girl and a unicorn. As far as I know the artist is unknown, but the model for the girl was Giulia Farnese. Anyway I put those two figures together in a forested scene that is different than the scenes they were in previously. My goal in this is to tell a different story with these figures, than the original paintings presented.  

Also, here is the video I made of the art piece.  

This I made for an embroidery challenge. I was given the fabric beforehand, so I didn't get to pick it out. The challenge was to how to use this as a backdrop for embroidery. So, I decided on a scene of a dragon and a castle. 

I'm not entirely sure if it is completely done, but at the moment I am done messing around with it.  

Here's the video of it. 

And lastly, this piece I made before the first one. I was experimenting with embroidering on paper, I had previously been writing in a note-book when I decided to embroider on the pages which then gave me the idea for this piece. 

I first drew in the circles, then embroidered the flowers in them, and continued till the page was full of flowers. I really like how it turned out in the end. 

Here's the video for it.

August Drawings (It's Been Awhile Since I Made a Drawing Post)

Hello everyone, I realize it's been awhile since I've made a drawing post. So I thought today was the perfect day to make one. So, let's begin. 

Here are the drawings: 

A drawing of Florence from Death in Paradise.

I hope in the near future to draw more drawings of the characters from that TV show. 

I like the way this drawing of Rapunzel turned out, I tried to make her outfit look a little like it looks in the TV show. 

A drawing of Merida. I like the way it turned out.

Annabelle's hair in this drawing is a little bit more curly than I normally draw it. 

A drawing of a mermaid, 

this is the first time 

I've drawn a mermaid with scales on her face and skin. 

This is a drawing of a character I made (that I hope to use soon), who can shape shift into a unicorn. When she is human she tends to have rainbow hair (like her mane when she is a unicorn) and a horn, though it can be rather awkward when she is close to people and accidentally bumps them with the horn.
