Watercolor and pencil illustration of a juvenile Austriadactylus enthused for the discovery of a damselfly, while ants and a roly poly go on with their business in late triassic Austria.

I tried to be as precise as possible (while keeping a cute/cartoony style) in the reconstruction of this critter and took large inspiration from Fabrizio De Rossi's illustration on Pteros.com, adding only some little stripes to show its juvenile coat. I'm not sure about the environment and wether or not rolypolys were a thing... I read that plants in late Triassic were mainly conifers, and specificaly I tried to draw Aethophyllum stipulare, an herbaceous conifer plant. I am not a naturalist tho, just an amateur, so if you have any criticism I'll gladly take it!

"The last picnic of the year"

Just two critters foraging for acorns and having tea in the last warm day of autumn... This is the first piece for a series of 5 illustrations I made for a little exhibition near my hometown, I found it extremely soothing to work on it and still love the way it looks, which is surprising.

Ah, I long for this weather so much!

#arttag #atsv #ghostflower #gwiles #miles morales #gwen stacy #tried giving each one their own respective style #so miles was done with marker brushes and gwen with watercolors and pencil #also wanted to make it sort of like miles has the light and it's not fully reaching gwen cause of The Horrors #like they're not connecting or whatever #dude idk i feel so stupid whenever i try to explain the thought process behind a drawing lmao #basically just wanted to do something fun and artsy because i haven't had time to draw lately!#anyway. they're on my mind all the time and if they don't make up in the next one i'll be devastated actually

heya!!! so excited to see you use tumblr. i have a question: what’s a painting you used to dislike but now find joy in? a lot of my old art i used to dislike and tried to think of all of the ways of fixing it, but now in the present i’m starting to grow really fond of it. kinda like a “wow i’ve actually improved so much but i still like the way i did this work” if that makes sense? have you ever had an experience like that?

Hi. Great question.

I think this piece of Marion from Raiders of the Lost Ark that I did for my friend Charlie back in 2002.

I had pretty much given up on traditional art at this time. I hated my art. I hated colored pencils. I literally took 10 years off (away from traditional art) after this piece.

Charlie was a good friend and he loved Indiana Jones. So... I slapped some watercolors down on bristol paper and did a REALLY quick sketch of Marion for him... and... never thought of it again.

For the next 10 years, I worked mainly in 3D/Digital doing my webcomic The Dreamland Chronicles. I didn't touch traditional art until 2011 when I decided to learn watercolors.

I look back on it now with a sense of nostalgia as this was the last colored pencil illustration I did before that long 10 year break and even though it was just a quick little sketch for a friend... it's not that bad.
