sketchfest stuff

I got six paintings done this month: three yesterday before falling asleep early, and three today. No Lorelei this month, but I introduced her pen-pal, Tanuki Jiro, who doesn't find his almost namesake very appetizing.

I tried an experiment this time, and made postcard sized prints of most of them available through the SketchFest sales system, and somebody bought one! I think I'll be doing that from now on :) You can still sponsor any of these if you want a version that's suitable for larger prints, but it's a quick way to get a copy for those who like the speedpaintings as-is.


prompt: Death in disguise


prompt: monster switch


prompt: The Masked Ball


Tanuki-jiru
prompt: Tanuki at the Market


prompt: The Cat's Music


prompt: sole survivor


Finished versions of any of these are $75. Co-sponsorships are welcome!

I love all of them, but Death in Disguise is one of the cutest things I've seen in forever.

Your sketchfest art is always so literal XD I absolutely love Death In Disguise.

>>prompt: Death in disguise

"I see things,
I see them with my eyes,
I see things,
They're often in disguise..."

(In case you're wondering: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBnXvhgrV8Q )

And, yes, I'm also reminded of Terry Pratchett's "Hogfather". :D

Death-in-disguise is pretty cute. Hee! I think I like the piano-playing kitty best, though.

For those who wonder why the short brown kid keeps laughing at them:

Jiro isn't delighted to see the soup, he's horrified. Most Asians react to social discomfort, disgust, or outright terror with nervous laughter. I seem to recall something in the early years about being unseemly, but this is the sort of thing it's best not to analyze too closely, and just take as given.
