It was a busy weekend for me, with the sketchfest and a houseful of people and getting ready for Christmas.
We will be taking off this year for the holidays, so I am trying to rush to get everything done this week and next.
WORK IN PROGRESS
I am almost done with my Christmas piece. I know I said that last time, but I haven't had a chance to work on it really, for the past couple of days. Here is a work in progress of it. The title is "The Star of Bethlehem" Done in watercolor, iridescent acrylics and color pencil. I just have the wings to complete and then just a tiny bit left on the background and looking at it now on the computer screen a bit on the hair as well. Hopefully, I get it done today. Reference stock from DA.
SKETCHFEST
I just had to share my sketches from Ellen Million's Sketchfest, from this past Friday and Saturday. http://www.ellenmilliongraphics.com/sketchfest/index.php I finished my very first sketch to. All in all, it was a blast and I highly recommend it for other artists. Really helps improve your skills as an artist and so many wonderful prompts, you can't help but get inspired.
Whispers of Winter
2.5" x 3.5" (ACEO)
$5 of the sale will be going to the sketchfest
Once Upon A December
Will probably either finish this in pencil or do it in watercolor/acrylics.
When I saw this prompt, I kept thinking of elves at Christmas time and a vision of a story began to pop in my head. Once upon a December day, a elf discovered a magical place, where the snowflakes glistened and were so beautiful to behold. The elf saw a castle ... well anyways the story goes on and I have a little bit more to add to the background. Stock used by deathbycanon over at DA
Well of Tears
Didn't quite get this one done. Will be part of my emotional series.

Gypsy of Sorrows
Didn't finish this one up either. Might be adding a wolf to the background.
Anyways, I hope you all have a great week!!!
