Dazzling Fish
You wouldn't know it from this on-line image, but I actually painted over her scales with glitter, so the Dazzling Fish is actually pretty dazzling in real life :)
Mermaid
It is not very often that you'll find people (or rather, creatures with human faces and arms) in my illustrations. This, however, is one of the few. Notice that I used the same blue drawing ink technique to show the fluidity of the underwater world.
Living Room Scene
If you look closely, you'll see how all of these animals are related to the Daydreaming Cat (see below)!
Colorful Friends
Colorful fish, Part II. Look closely though - does this look like an entirely colored pencil drawing? Even though I did try to play around with color blending to the MAX, I wanted something a little more exciting for the background: Drawing Ink! (Very similar to watercolor - same technique I used for the Seashells With Hibiscus drawing earlier) I blended the blue ink with water to lighten it up a bit, and then simply painted the background with a paintbrush. The beauty of this drawing ink is that it leaves streaks, giving the illustration a realistic, underwater feel.
Sea Creatures
Sea animals galore! This one was also a birthday card, it reads Happy Birthday! on the whale's tail.
Tree of Life
I got the idea for this drawing from Gustav Klimt's Tree of Life, however I added my own touch to it.
Seashell by the Pond
This drawing was part of the seashell series from my college drawing class assignment, where we were asked to make 12 drawings of an object of our choice. This was my first piece (ever) utilizing the charming, cartoon-like animals, with big, curious eyes.
Rainbow Fish with Turtle
One of the first drawings I ever made that showed me the amazing blending abilities of colored pencils. The first of the series of colorful fish drawings.
