Those eyes!

Alien
This little alien seems a bit fearful to me.
That Schnozz
It seemed like such a masculine creature, until I gave it eyelashes.
My Version of The Blob
My imaginary creatures are looking less and less like the ones from that class I took from Carla Sonheim. That’s good, though. They are becoming more and more my own creations.
Fancy N
This is the beginning of an Imaginary Creature painting. I really like the way this flows, though. I can’t make myself paint over it. I guess it’s done, just the way it is.
Imaginary Creatures, Class 5
Day five of Carla Sonheim’s “Imaginary Creatures” online art class.
Textures, And, no, they are not exact.
Revisited the blob paintings. Added a few details.
Didn’t add a lot to this little guy. I didn’t feel like he needed much.
This one is sooo my favorite. I love they way it turned out!
Imaginary Creatures, Class 4
Day three of Carla Sonheim’s “Imaginary Creatures” online art class.
These are the “scribble with intention” drawings.
And more. I was drawing from the book “Diving in the Indian Ocean”, consultant Jack Jackson. It has some wonderful pictures.
This is coming along nicely. I especially like that red.
This one is my favorite.
Imaginary Creatures, Day 3
Day three of Carla Sonheim’s “Imaginary Creatures” online art class.
Just some textures from in and around my home.
This is a “line and smudge” drawing.
This is a “side only” drawing of the same teddy bear. Have I said how much I don’t like working with charcoal? It’s just too messy for my tastes. I like the results, but I swear that charcoal gets on everything!
Carla gave hints on how to get to a point where we could see figures on the paint. I had the figure running, but had to mess with it some more to get what it was running from.
Had to mess with this one, too. But, I like the results.
Imaginary Creatures, Day 2
Day 2 of Carla Sonheim’s class.
Blind contour drawing.
This is one of my cats taking a nap.
This is a contour drawing of a stuffed bear.
This is the best of the painting part of the class.
This one has such potential!
Imaginary Creatures, Day One
I’ve been wanting to take Carla Sonheim’s Imaginary Creatures class for a number of years now. This last time she offered it, was on my vacation, so I finally got to take it!
Part of the lesson was to do continuous line drawings. I did PAGES of them. Too much fun!
Here’s an elephant.
Here’s a lion.
Here’s a cat face.
The last part of the lesson was with water color paint and pencil.
