Be Mused Art

Well here we have the inked version of the Ladybug FaeCat. Since I chose a square shape for the final version, I did have to make a few changes to the composition. Next step is the watercolor paint. Hopefully I will have it completed by Monday. But [...]

Well this is a sketch I worked on today. Next i need to transfer the design to some watercolor paper then ink and paint.
So much to do. And with tomorrow being Halloween we still need to carve a pumpkin or two and talk K into letting me put her hair up [...]
