by odin's beard!

i started reading American Gods recently and it is super fantastic so far. a bunch of talk of folklore and mythology and what not. so i drawed me up the all-father! got his ravens in there and everything. i think i might have to dig into some norse mythology in the not too distant future.
for odin! for asgard!

lil baby turtle

got commissioned to do a little painting of "a baby turtle and a butterfly" as a dual christmas/baby-warming present for my sister's coworker. so here are the sketches i worked through and a quick photo of the finished painting. i think it turned out pretty cute if i do say so myself. i probably could have done this painting much faster than i did but i stumbled across top gear uk on netflix and, despite my utter disinterest in cars, got hooked and marathoned a ton of it in the background while 'painting'. anyhow heres the turtle and i will be posting another quick sketch later tonight as a little bonus post and then i have some holiday projects that will be posted as they are completed.

later
