In Mythographic Wild Summer illustrated by Joseph Catimbang

Legend says that where the river meets the sea lies a hidden beach that appears only to those with kind hearts. Its golden sands sparkle with enchanted gemstones, each one glowing with a tiny bit of magic. At the water's edge, a mermaid sleeps peacefully while playful otters stand watch, protecting her dreams.

Medium: gouache paint

Don’t talk l about the bleed through from the previous page ☠️☠️☠️

I think I saw a similar colour palette for the kitchen somewhere but I can't remember where. anyway, these were fun! I was also happy to see that this technique already inspired some of you to try it yourself! :)

I found this one a little tricky. Overall I think it works.

I’m glad that I didn’t mess up the water because it was kinda hard creating the waves with white acrylic gel pen. I need to work on my sky coloring skills. Any recommendations which color combo you normally use for blue sky? TIA.

Hello everyone,

Great to be here! The work here is mind blowing!

Here's my first full page completed with alcohol markers!

Also my first time using alcohol markers! :)

How did I do?

I wanted to try to color hydrangeas without taking too much time…😅 But again, I was super entrained that ended up coloring for more than 2hrs.

Book: The Catto Club.

I always struggle when it comes to the sky especially when the background takes up a lot of space and you have to follow the marker lines constantly until the end. I’m not very good at blending and stuff like that, I want to make the top of the sky a bit darker and kind of blend down in this picture, any tips for getting it to look good and not like I just whacked some dark blue at the top? Also why do my sparkles not look very much like sparkles lol? I just went over them with white pen but they don’t look very nice.

I tried to practice the glass effect with alcohol markers. I did okay... ish. Still need to get the hang of it and doing the highlights.

Advice is appreciated. I'm still new to alcohol markers. I have the Ohuhu brand Kaala B Illustration set (60).

Decided to sit back and relax by doodling Woody Woodpecker! I think it came out decent. Not the best, but that is what practice is for!

I know there are some parts where the ink from the lines smudged into the colors which sucks 😞 this is also my first post on Reddit!!! This was just me having fun nothing too serious :)

Have you ever had Superman ice cream? 🍦

Probably should have stopped at the second picture

Found an old sketchbook (well over 10 years) of some sharpie art I did, back when I got the full set of regular and thin sharpies in every color. Miraculously, with the sketch pad, I also found a bag with most of the sharpies in it, and I tested them all and all but like 1-2 still work! Havnt touched them in over 10 years! Lol anyway here they are. Sorry about the grey sky, I know it looks bad lol Sharpies aren’t really ideal for larger areas 🤷🏼‍♀️

Also I was super into “zen doodle” and the like , at the time. Hence the designs inside each object lol.

Only my 3rd page done with my alcohol markers and 2nd time trying water textures

I really love colors. I'm not a trained artist in any way; I want to learn more about color and drawing. Do you have any advice to improve this doodle? Thank you!
