New Artwork, doll design submission and watercolor video




Today I want to share a watercolor video with you. Several months ago, I created this as a longer version for my patrons over on Patreon for the Watercolor Wallflower $10 tier. I love using watercolor pencils to lightly sketch and then activate with water. 

I have been having fun creating some new small originals and they are now up in my Big Cartel shop.



COMING SOON!!
Also watch this space to get notified first about my new enamel pin collection for Halloween. I'll also have 4 new washi tape designs very soon....2 of which have foil accents. So excited to see how they turned out.
Momiji doll design

I created this cute Momiji doll design a couple weeks ago and thought I'd share with my blog readers. I am not sure that Momiji is even accepting designs but I thought it would be an amazing learning experience if I gave it a try. I first created a pencil drawing with a brown col-erase pencil and then took a photo of that and used it as a guide for my line and color work in Procreate. The side view proved to be the most difficult as the foreshortening of the arm and back of the bird needed to be constructed flat. Definitely a fun learning experience.
Below are the rough sketches. You can tell this was a night-time project.... :-)
One of my dreams as been to have a doll created with my art. I am not sure that will ever happen. But it certainly won't if I don't put in the work. Cheers to the work and the learning that comes with it!

  1. Mindy, Scarey is so adorable!!! I hope that your dream of having a doll made from your work comes true. I can absolutely see one as a Momiji or something else.
