Happy Gator Holidays



I feel so... giddy! The year is coming to an end, Gatordog is looking better than it ever has, I'm going to get to see my boyfriend again.. GAH! Just so happy! Drew this yesterday, a doodle that turned into a great source of procrastination while i was working on background layouts. (this is why im glad i didnt animate in flash like I did with Gladiator! Tablets are distracting!)

Off model, purposely. And i LOVE gatorgirl's winter attire, cant wait to make a model sheet for that outfit!

Alternate Zelda Universe




Where boys have horns and the boar guys are still ugly. You'd think i'd been playing Wind Waker lately or something! The design of that game really grew on me <3

I've been trying to get portfolio worthy doodles out of sketch a day, but I've realized that none of these are really up to par, and would definitely take redesigning, maybe some color and clean up, and a lot of redrawing to really count as something, but thats okay, such is the art process, something I should embrace anyways!


Yesterdays doodle after watching Lilo and Stitch, but no where near as chris sandersey as I would like. Next time, though!

Kiss me, Bat!




So I drew Catwoman again, big whoop, its not like i'm obsessed or anything! <3

things i love



Catwoman. I LOVE catwoman, I wish her and Tank girl would have a baby and it would be the most badass little chick ever.



I also love puppies, and my boyfriend Matt, who is my go to character when drawing little human boys, lol.

4 heads



Almost didn't attempt a sketch for this unproductive day, but after i doodled old retired Tommy Lee Jones up there i figured what the heck i'll doodle random ugly coach from Yahoo news article, sassy exotic chick, and then a little doodled in response to PETA's new brilliant idea that children learn to skin and wear animal skins because of super mario because thats OBVIOUSLY the issues we should be focusing on right now, because as a child of the Mario generation, as I look down at the starving puppy my mom just rescued, i cant help but think about how chilly my feet are without any puppy socks.

Oh shanty



its been awhile!

I've come to terms with it though, that i'll just be focusing on my film, despite the fact that its not terribly hard to do a sketch a day, and post little thing here and there, like this creepy dog!

Ive been avoiding the shanty land, but i sure miss it :( Inspiration, come back!

ah fail



Shantyland, i have failed you!

But not really. I did say no more dogs but.. eh, nothing cheers you up more than.. a picture of a puppy!...

woops

havent uploaded in the past couple days, I've got sketches from in class, but they need scannin'

Almost didnt do a sketch for tonight (besides commissions that I feel cheap posting) but i figured eh, why ruin my semi decent track record since the revival of shanty land.

So i drew...

Me.

Sadly, this is actually more decent than a previous attempt about a month ago done in a similar zombie-like state. One day i hope to be one of those cool kids with a drawn profile picture.
Except it'll be somehow way less lame and more stylized and colored and really portray just how awesome i really am. C: Blinkblink.

hellooooo sparta!



Errr....
So today in class i drew a little greek (grecian?) girl playing with a puppy, which I guess is why i ended up going with the "Spartacus"(man i loved that show) theme tonight, and to which I... had issues with.. Hah. Still workin' on them people skills!

I think I may revisit this time period though, i've been trying to find things that I enjoy to draw that havent been too painfully overdone lately. So meh!

I really want to get some more stuff colored to post soon.
And... i need a scanner.

Oh. and this, just now:

random wolf.

salty dog



Not really finished :(

But fun to do, I feel like i start off alright on things like this, but then sort of get jumbled when it comes to lighting and color and details, which i suppose makes up of a vast majority of a painting.

Planning to look up reference and tutorials at some point, for learning purposes.

watercolors



Apparently people dont like people who ramble on their blogs, well piss on that! I love to ramble, you dont have to read it (:

Kind of cheating, did this the other night, didnt think to scan/ save the sketches i did today.

Gatorgirls face... one day i'll get it right.

Subcats sink ships



Unfortunately my lack of scanner makes it hard to post the figure sketches I did today, or the watercolor painting i ended up doing last night (last night was a good art night for me) so i doodled Subcat again in the hopes to get settled back onto a design, as i'm hoping to board out my idea for a film about him, as well as Scarfy!

I think people assumed Subcat was supposed to be a female since i have a thing for main female characters, but I actually intended for him to be a male cat named Max or Maximus or something. Fun fact right there {:

Definitely nowhere near as lanky and smooth as the original was (Im pretty sure he's posted on this blog somewhere) so i'll be tweaking things later on.



And i drew this yesterday night? somewhere in limbo between the two days, for my mom of her great dane, who this actually looks nothing like, lol.

Welcome to Shanty Land




Look what I did today :D A banner for Shanty land!

I chose the url name thing for this blog at random, but it's really grown on me. I know i should probably have a standard Serene Wyatt one, but shanty land is like the dirty little secret that's fun to stumble across.

I decided earlier today that shanty land needed a banner (check!) and a mascot, which i guess is what led to the real sketch of the day:




What can i say? I love the swamp/bayou and all the critters that live in it, including this guy. You should just be glad there's not a picture of gatordog hidden in the background. (or is there...!)


Oh, and last one for the night, hopefully going to finish, ink and color this one. Jedi dogs.

Hello witch hazel

So i think sketch a day needs to be revived. I've had so much positive drive this semester that theres no reason i shouldn't be able to make time for a sketch a day. and hopefully you'll see fast improvement.

Did this sketch earlier today. My grandma used to call me Witch Hazel when I was little because I was such a witch. Not sure if it's from a story or something, but I got the urge to draw a little witch today, so what better fitting for a name than Hazel! I think for the rest of the month i'll doodle her here and there and develop more character/story, just for fun.
