Castiel! I both spent the most and least amount of time on it. I did more studies of Misha's facial structure than any other, finally got it, and spent… maybe three hours on it? I suppose it is less refined in some ways than the others, but I'm content. #art | #spn | #castiel | #fanart

A portrait of Misha Collins as the angel Castiel from the hit TV series Supernatural. A smudgy, rough impression rendered digitally, with a deep emerald background.

My painting of a Green-tailed Sunbird for this month's ##birdwhisperer Challenge. A5 Gouache on grey card #BirdArt #Art #bskyart #gouache

Realistic painting of a male Green-tailed Sunbird perched on the end of a broken vertical branch. His body is facing the viewer but his head is turned to the left. He has a vibrant yellow breast, black cheeks and there are some flecks of red at his neck. His head has blue/teal iridescent feathers and he has a long curved beak.

Given the amount of sunshine we've had in London over the last weeks, this green-tailed sunbird (native to Southeast Asia) would have felt almost at home #BirdWhisperer #BirdArt #CubistBirds

Drawing of a green-tailed sunbird from the side, his head and large curved beak turned towards the left, he is perched on top of a vertical branch. The bird is drawn somewhat abstractly with all areas tessellated into triangles and coloured so that no two adjacent areas are in the same hues.

Green-tailed sunbird for today’s #birdwhisperer. Once again, tried to forget so it’s kind of a mess but ah well.

The #BirdWhisperer bird of the month is the green-tailed sunbird! I used a blend of different references to render the bird this month because I wanted to get that beautiful red and green plumage along the back. :] @birdwhisperers.bsky.social #art | #Bird | #GreentailedSunbird | #DigitalArt

Around 5 hours later, it… exists! There are still some small things I think I could fix, but at some point, you have to call a work "done" and move on. The next one will be better. #art | #portrait | #SPN | #DeanWinchester | #FanArt

A portrait featuring Dean Winchester from the hit TV series Supernatural. He is facing slightly to the left, with a calm expression and the faintest smile.

Today I drew some garlic at the suggestion of a friend whom I do events with, KSGarlic. I'm happy with it! This'll work nicely with the grape tomato cards I made a long time ago! I may need to do a third food piece... Hubby suggested Basil. Maybe cheese. Mmmm! #Art #BskyArt #Garlic #HumanMade

A portrait of Jared Padalecki as Sam Winchester from the hit TV show "Supernatural". He faces to the left at three-quarter view with a grim, thoughtful look on his face. Deep navy shadows cover his face and serve as the background of the piece.

We have entered Panic Phase 1 (aka coloring and rendering), where I question everything I know for the next hour or two. I like to start working in value at this point, since the color can be distracting for me. #art | #portrait | #spn | #fanart | #SamWinchester | #wip

A work in progress portrait of Sam Winchester with the beginning of flat colors and skin tones. On the left are a zoomed out version of the artwork and reference image just above that.

Today I share a Pigeon, which are all over downtown Eureka, and hardly regional-specific! But I pushed my colors a bit and hopefully did it justice! 🐡🪶🎨 Greeting Card: coreyartusimagery.com/products/pig... Speedpaint: makertube.net/w/oomJeU6j9c... #Art #BskyArt #Birdart #BSNM #Pigeon #IndieArtist

Today, July 3rd is #WorldMeerkatDay 🎉 While not currently at risk, Meerkats play a vital role in balancing ecosystems. They keep insect populations in check and act as alert systems for predators, benefiting many other species. #Meerkat #NatureArt #WildlifeArt #AnimalArt #SciArt

Digital sketch study of a pair of meerkats. Related to the Mongoose family tree, they are described as broad headed, with large eyes, a pointed snout, long legs, a thin tapering tail, and a brindled coat pattern. The coat is light grey to yellowish-brown with alternate, poorly defined light and dark bands on the back. Meerkats have foreclaws adapted for digging and have the ability to thermoregulate to survive in their harsh, dry habitat of southern Africa

Buffy Helmetcrest hummingbird! Was watching one of @coreyartusimagery.com streams, and got to looking up hummingbirds. This one stood out with its short bill, v-neck green and blue/purple beard, black and buff head, and fluffy crest. #BirdArt #ornithology #SciArt #NatureArt #WildlifeArt

Digital Sketch study of a Buffy Helmetcrest Hummingbird, Male.
They are described as a large, short-billed hummingbird found only at extremely high elevations in Colombia’s central Andes. Adult male’s green and blue beard, black and buff head pattern, and shaggy crest make him easily recognizable within his tiny world range.
