Redo of an old piece in a new, experimental style.  Flat shapes and patterns are a lot of fun.  Also tried to go outside my comfort zone with the pallet.

Just a heads up, the limited edition look of our main line of handmade soaps is ending soon!  The labels that double as stickers are staying, but the bars will go back to their sparkly but single colored selves.
We highly suggest grabbing bars now because we are going to Anime Expo and we expect to sell out!
Another reason to stock up now:  Due to the quality of what we offer and the work that goes into it we are going to have to raise our prices by .50 cents per bar.  The new price won’t go into effect until June 15th, so you still have time to grab what you need at our current prices!
Now, we want your input!  
How are you guys enjoying the botanicals we’ve put in the soaps to act as gentle exfoliants?  Though we are switching back to single color bars, we are open to continuing with the embedded exfoliants in the soaps that currently have them.  
So, are you guys enjoying the exfoliants, yes or no?  And if only in certain bars, which ones?

Hi Guys!

Here are some pencil drawings for some of my illustrations.

This is one of the primary steps for my illustration work. I’ll tend to go through a number of thumbnails and quickie drawings, eventually cobbling them into a more detailed franken-drawing.(literally a mish mash of thumbnails, sketches and draw overs in photoshop, seriously, it’s ugly looking lol).

I then print these franken-drawings out onto 11x17 copy paper. From here I’l transfer them onto Fabriano Artistico water color paper (140lb) for the final drawing, “inking” them with a mechanical pencil. Then everything is scanned and digital paint begins. 

The final paintings can be seen here:

Harpy

The Wood Gatherer

Lady and Trolls

Valkyrie

As always, I’m happy to answer any questions :)
