Kitten Sebastian

Posted On 07-30-2010 , 9:05 AM

About 2 months ago a new fiend...er....feline was introduced to my home.  His name is Sebastian, and he is a Tuxedo kitten.  He was 3 months old when I got him, and pretty sick, though it was just a bad case of the kitty flu.  He's now 5 months and is the most adorable little trouble-maker that I know, waking me up every morning (and I mean EVERY morning) by either biting my nose or rubbing against my face until I get out of bed and feed him already. 

As is my custom with anything adorable an fuzzy, I naturally had to draw him.  Only fair, as I've drawn my other cats.  So, below is the adorable Sebastian, debuting here for all to worship and adore:

Kitten Sebastian

When a kitten gets sick, the way Sebastian did, his inner eyelids (a third eyelid inside his others) swells.  Sebastian's did, and though the swelling has gone down quite a bit, it never truly disappeared, giving Sebastian a constant, and slightly adorable, appearance of glaring.  It really is adorable on him because he is so tiny and fluffy, he has the longest fur of any cat I've ever had the privilege of serving. 

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy this bit of fluff to brighten up your mornings. 

Sebastian was drawn in Adobe Photoshop using the brush tool to create the basic color and shape, the Burn and Dodge tools to create the shadowing and highlights, and the smudge tool to do all the detail work (giving him the lovely fuzzy appearance....love the smudge tool!)

Pure Beauty

Posted On 07-12-2010 , 10:08 AM

Today, instead of showing off my own artwork (which I haven't had time to work on recently), I'm showing off the artwork of one of my best friends: Sayjinlink of DeviantArt.  Sayjinlink goes by quite a few different names, including Leviathan and, amusingly, Tiny.  I've known him since we were both lowly middle-schoolers.  At the time he was my best friend's little brother, though as we got older he came to be one of my best friends as well and I was honored to be a witness at his wedding. 

A few weeks ago, he created the below piece of art, titled "Pure Beauty in Meditation" as a present for his wife.  




As I find the peice incredible and romantic, I decided to share it with all of you.  If you happen to have a DeviantArt account, please log in and take a look at his other artwork or leave a comment on this piece.  If you don't have an account, feel free to leave a comment here and I will pass it on to him.  He loves hearing what others think of his art (as do all of us artists, I believe) so don't be shy with your opinions!
