Water. Water took me months.

Water is my nemesis

And every time I think I have the hang of it, along comes another water scenario where everything is completely new and different and I have no idea how any of it works

Inking some water now and I think I’m in way deep over my head, what am I even doing~ 🙃

I am obsessed with water. It breaks my brain and I am a sucker for that punishment.

i love water caustics!

way easier to replicate in 3d with soft body physics & light 💡 photonics & animated cameras 🎥 than sketching ✍️ 💦🌊🐳… & mesmerizing in motion!

Ferns don't work. They're lazy.

It's like a tree.... but there's no trunk or branches. The leaves just POP out of the ground on their little stalks, like prehistoric flowers.

Thanks for going through the trouble of learning how to draw the jungle scene and doing your best with it instead of turning to the machine learning algorithms. This is what it's all about: Seeing something you want to do & then figuring out how to do it. 🩵
