End of 2012

Hello! It's been a while since I've uploaded, but I've been working on a lot! I ended up moving from Yokohama, Japan back to Houston, Texas (where I'm currently living) and stopped for 2 weeks in London on the way home. Before and after that time, I managed to gather my time to work on Christmas commissions and some inking exercises. Augie is the last painting I did in Japan and the rest have been drawn/ painted in the last 2 weeks I've been in America. I've been busy.

In other news, this might be my last post here. Please, please, PLEASE go to my Tumblr account and follow me here: http://kellyfscribbles.tumblr.com/

I WILL BE UPDATING MY TUMBLR OFTEN!!! I hope you all have brilliant New Year's parties and a beautiful and lovely 2013! Cheers!

Dog Portrait/ Leaving

I'm finishing up with Japan, spending 2 weeks in London and moving internationally back to the US. Things have been quiet on the blog, but I've still been working. Life has just been incredibly hectic with the move. I'm debating whether to call it quits on this blog and move to a tumblr as well. Blogspot seems like a very well and dead platform, but I've been trying to avoid tumblr just because of all the art theft that goes on around those parts. Speaking of art theft, I've had my share of that lately.

On to brighter topics. Here's an animal portrait I've just recently completely.

This is my last animal portrait for a while due to the move and greener pastures. As you may/ may not have noticed... I've been directing my portfolio into a different direction. Come December, I'm grafting hard into the world of comics. This blog will either be exploding or a tumblr link may be coming your way. Who knows what the future holds?

Bentley Portrait

It's been quite a while since I've done a small pet portrait. I actually haven't touched acrylics in over a year. So, this was quite refreshing to do something traditional once more. I learned how to buy canvas and paints for the first time living in Japan (as I brought my gouache with me from America). In Japan, they size the canvas according to the traditional French sizes. This is an S0 size canvas (7"x7").

This was done for a nice lady in Houston as a present for her daughter. If you would like to order a portrait of your pet, I do ship internationally (now that I live in Japan).

Mighty Boosh Portraits

As you may or may not have noticed by now, I've become quite obsessed with The Mighty Boosh. I've done several portraits of Noel Fielding, but I really wanted to do character portraits of Vince Noir and Howard Moon. Collectively done in Corel Painter and Photoshop and took around 15 hours.

Self Portrait

It's Golden Week in Japan and that means holidays for most. I decided that it was time that I overhaul my website and work on a new self portrait. My old self- portrait was from November 2009 so I was more than over-due for a new one. Corel Painter and Photoshop (the usual). I included 2 close-ups.

Archer Illustration

Here's the finished archer piece. I painted this in Corel Painter 11 and had a blast figuring out textures and lighting. I love giving myself a little challenge. I included process pictures below it. Towards the end, I changed the archer's face completely. I felt he needed to be younger and have darker hair.

Day 30

Bus stop

バスストップ

This is the final day, my last post. Thanks to everyone for all of the support. Doing 30 paintings in 30 days was incredibly hard. I hope you all had a wonderful 2011. Onto 2012! ((I know I have a lot of ideas in the works))
