New Edition For My Coloring Book!

Celtic Knotwork Coloring Book, now available in printable PDF format!

I did some poking around and figured out that Lulu.com is a place where you can sell your books as PDFs, and I've been wanting to do that for a while because printable coloring books are a big thing 'cause you can print out however many pages you need, on the right kind of paper.

So I finally got this stuff figured out and now its available on Lulu for $2.29, which is about half the price of a print copy, but I still make just as much profit per sale so its a great way to help support me as an artist so I can quit that day job!

Celtic Knotwork Coloring Book available for $2.29 on Lulu.com:

If you want to buy any copies that's great, and anything you can do to help spread the word is greatly appreciated!

Happy coloring! :)

Angelic Bookends

Another addition to my magical bookshelves series.  I don't know why, but I think it would be really fun to do a series of stories about little statues that come to life and wander about on the bookshelves. :)

Ruined Castle

Its also available as a print, (and other stuff), on Society6!

I am immensely proud of this one! :)

You see there in the lower right corner where I signed it?  I signed it with my micron pen when I finished the outline drawing last year, and I had to paint in the year with watercolors when I finished coloring it in just today.  So I do finish projects it just takes me a while.

2018?

So apparently I did a ton of art last year.  This year I'm going to create more and better artwork.  But what does that even mean?

 Well here are the salient points:

1. My Celtic Knotwork Coloring Book has been doing really well, (thanks for buying it!), so of course I'm going to keep on coming out with coloring books.  So expect to see more coloring book pages in Celtic knotwork, acanthus ornament, and other elegant decorative styles.

2. I've been saying for years that I want to write and illustrate stories in my own medieval fantasy universe.  The stories I'm currently working on are about children who make friends with some goblin children and have lots of fun adventures even though the grown ups all want to kill each other.  So I'm sorry its taking so long, but I really think I'll be able to finish a short story or two to share with you this year.  I will upload them for your reading pleasure on this blog, and deviantart.

3. Miscellaneous artwork.  As always I will put up pictures of paintings and drawings I'm working on.  These are not always connected to a particular project but they help me grow as an artist, and hopefully you enjoy them.


4. You have a happy new year!  I'm glad that we finally finished the old year.

2017 Year In Review

So apparently I did a lot of art this year.  Here's a video I did that's a slideshow of all the art I came out with in 2017:

The music is Never Give Up On Your Dreams by Two Steps From Hell, with whom I do not claim to be affiliated in any way.

The pictures are all the artwork I uploaded to deviantart, in 2017, in chronological order:

Its been a good year for me in terms of art, and I'm going to continue making more and better artwork next year.

Thank you all for your support!

Mobius Acanthus

Another year come and gone, time to turn over a new leaf, and go around again!

Thanks for all the support this year!

More With Colored Pencils!

The top one was a Christmas present for my mom and dad, and the the bottom one was a Christmas present for my sister.  I didn't have time to finish any paintings, so I got out my colored pencils instead, and it didn't scan very well but I think they came out kind of nice.  :)

I hope you all had a very nice Christmas too!  <3
