Paintbrush



This was my first time painting a comic. Usually the medium is crayons or colored pencils, but, man, watercolor painting is just so much fun and doesn't hurt my hands. It also made block 22 look super emo. I did color the hair & skin with colored pencils and tried to do some technique with isopropyl alcohol to blend it, but I guess I didn't have the right type of pencils because nothing really changed. It just made the paper wet for a little bit and smell funny. I didn't go over it in paint again because was afraid it would bleed all crazy, and I didn't have enough perfect love to cast out that fear, so here we have a "mixed medium" piece of work. 

I'm really trying to be better at hands, too. Usually I hide them behind furniture or stuff them in pockets, but this time I really tried. Don't you dare look at them.

I did not intend make the dog look like Clifford in the last panel, but the scanner has some influence, too. 
600 dpi. 
That's what's up.

It's been a while,
