Creatures & Monsters

I test different art materials by creating monsters, creatures, critters and maybe the occasional human.
These two purple hamsters are based on the same sketch. One is made using Derwent Lightfast coloured pencils, and the other is Winsor & Newton gouache.

I painted this a few years back while trying my hands at acrylics. My cat at the time ran across the palette and left blue pawprints all over my flat. Now whenever I look at this painting I think of her.

Sketch of a bear. The bear is a little worried, which is understandable. The world is kinda shit right now.

Drawn with Derwent inktense, coloursoft and lightfast coloured pencils.

His name is Peanut. Although he might not look like he does, he has a PhD in chemical engineering. He feels no one takes him seriously because of his appearance, which causes him to be angry and bitter. Let us all give Dr. Peanut the respect he deserves.

Another attempt at gouache. A proud father introduces you to his son. Despite the perpetual look of misery, they are both quite pleased to be here.

This tiny monster uses his long limbs and sharp claws to climb trees, buildings, statues, and even people's legs. He has two pairs of fuzzy eyebrows because sometimes one pair just isn't enough.
