I feel like all that time I’ve been practicing shading is starting to pay off.
Sitting atop a fractal surface of black holes, Tribert tries to make Adenine, one of the molecules in DNA, but he didn’t get it quite right, probably because he got distracted by the cats. Maybe next time, Tribert.
Tribert Tries to Make Life
Doodle No. 140
8” square
Ink, highly lightfast (fade resistant) watercolor pencils and paint, and mica paint on Arches 300 GSM 100% cotton paper
Dream Path, colored pencil and digital art. I woke in a dream. Stone stairs I knew not beckoned me follow. Pondering I gazed. Magic danced in the sky, evermore enticing. What venture awaited me I'll never know, awakening too soon.

It’s been a challenging month, and I haven’t had a lot of success with my gouache painting lately. So I decided to go back to my old style of doodling cats and aliens on black holes with ink and colored pencils, where life makes sense and I know what I’m doing.

If you’re a color nut like me, you know that last week, Pantone named their 2024 Color of the Year, Peach Fuzz. So for this Color Wheel Wednesday, I had to make a color wheel inspired by peach. I really like peach. It was my grandmother’s favorite and my mom digs it too. It’s warm and cheerful. It’s a color of warmth and hope. #color#MathArt#WaterColor#ColoredPencil

I’ve become infatuated with drawing flowers lately. I draw from several photos at a time in an attempt not to simply copy but to understand their structure. Then I redraw the plants using my drawings and memory of the structure of the plants. Here you can see a page of studies of various plants and a painting done from one of the studies. The scarlet pimpernel is a tiny plant you’d barely notice if it weren’t for its bright orange flowers. #watercolor#coloredpencil#botanical
