Happy 4th of July
Happy Independence Day,
What a great holiday, it not my favorite as Christmas and Thanksgiving occupy the top spot as far as holidays go. The 4th is still a great time to spend with family and friends. With lots of great food and activities such as Fireworks, baseball, concerts, cook outs and just general time off to relax and get together with loved ones.
It's also a time say happy birthday to a great nation, Happy birthday America. America is not perfect but you can't deny the awesome amount of freedom that we enjoy. I have a little time to enjoy seeing my parents and endulge in one of my favorite hobbys... art. So I tried to do a patriotic art piece one of three that I have planned. It is also a salute to the USA military, by air, by sea, by land. The frost piece is a salute to the Air Force.
The second piece is a dragon, a dragon from a book that my Dad read maybe 30 years ago. It must of made an impression on him because he made a photocopy of the picture and kept it all these years. He asked if I could make it with color. It's a very detailed piece it, it's pretty awesome looking. I wish I knew who the original artist was because I don't like posting it without acknowledging who drew it but we don't know who the artist was or remember what the name of the book was. It is not an original art piece from me but this is prob very close to what an Inker would be paid to do is take the artist work from pencil and turn it into colored page or panel. This is not uncommon in the comic industry, comics are usually put together by a handful of people. In my local comic shop they have a artist dedicated to the shop and recently he has been working with another artist on collaborations which look great, so again I'm not claiming this as my original art but you can see the progress and hopefully some time soon I'll post updates and a finished piece.
The Jets and Flag are done on 11x14 watercolor paper with watercolor, and the dragon of course you can see I'm working on the iPad in Procreate with an Apple Pencil
