i'm really happy with how the painting turned out! i'm not sure if i 100% caught the model's likeness but i think i got pretty close and i'm happy enough with that as i'm developing that skill

here's a really quick study of cat i did yesterday. i think it took ~45 mins? i'm really trying to improve speed and values right now. think i could've done more around the cats stomach area but pretty happy overall as i don't normally draw animals

here's a quick-ish painting i did the other day. it was mean to help me learn how to actually use a greyscale layer + multiply layer. its far from perfect but better than previous attempts that i have had that ended up as a muddy mess

Explain your username!
where i'm from, there's a pile of blackthorn and whitethorn bushes so as a kid when i needed a username for steam, i thought of using one of them for my name. blackthorn won bc i thought it sounded edgier and cooler 😎. then it just stuck around lol

Explain your username 🎤
Needed a username for the website GameTrailers back in the early 2000s. Using my teenager brain I started from my initials JD and started sounding off different combinations of words and landed on JDog. Now of course jdog was already taken so added Toocool for originality ☺️

finally free from college. yay! celebrated by doing a small drawing. normally i treat digital art like traditional and just draw & render using normal layers but tried playing around with filters and other tools this time to get the spotlight affect
