Water colour

Did I Fix This Ruined Drawing?

I’m working on some Mandalorian fan art right now (Yes, again, shoot me) and I had a bit of a mishap with some water colour. Essentially, I applied water colour and it looked really bad and I nearly threw the artwork, the sketchbook, and my paints in the bin. The only reason I didn’t is because my Encanto fan art was on the back and I actually like that one. A classic artist conundrum if I’ve ever seen one.

Messing up is pretty much inevitable since I don’t know what I’m doing.. *ahem* buuut I decided to push on and keep going. And it’s the perseverance that counts right? Art is about not giving up on your dreams or something.

Anyway, this piece is still largely a WIP and I’ll let you know in, uh, a million years whether it actually ended up any good or not.

Good Evening, Mr Dowd | Art For 1950’s Harvey

| Julia H Dixon

“I started to walk down the street when I heard a voice saying: ‘Good evening, Mr. Dowd’. I turned, and there was this big white rabbit leaning against a lamp-post. Well, I thought nothing of that, because when you’ve lived in a town as long as I’ve lived in this one, you get used to the fact that everybody knows your name. And naturally, I went over to chat with him.”

– Harvey (1950)

Boy, you didn’t expect to see fan art for a film from the 1950’s, did you? I’m aware the lighting is shocking, but I feel it adds to it (?)
