Anyways, here’s some sketchbook shenanigans:

This is for the 100th follower on my twitter, that isn’t a sandwich item. (It’ll make sense in a minute!)

When I offered a gift drawing for my 100th follower on Twitter, the user, “bighamsandwich” got the dubious honor. So as I’ve promised, here’s a sexy ham sandwich image for them.

These are some quick sketches based on the musical episode of Fringe, called “Brown Betty.” It was based on some futuristic take on the 1940′s, and it was delightful, despite being non-canon. Bonus points if you can recognize the characters I drew (badly.)

Just a random girl, a bit of a throwback to my anime-drawing days. Yes, I admit it, I drew anime.

Anyways, it’s nice to be doing a bit more sketching, and I’m starting to get used to using gouache in the moleskine again.

Anyways, here’s some art! I’ve been on a gouache/evil drag queen kick. I’ve got some cockamamie idea about drag queens in space, fighting each other in dazzling, magical girl-style battles. How amazing would that be?! (Probably only amazing to me.)

This is for all you new dads:

Adventures in gouache!

And I bring to you, the First Daily Tanya Fail! This one is of how my mother claimed she was going to “just trim your bangs a bit, dear,” and ended up chopping off a head of shoulder-length hair. RAGE!

And there we have it! There will be more to come, and I hope you enjoyed the inaugural opening of Tanya Fails!

It will also be going into my portfolio, so sorry for showing it twice.
It’s about foxes and their love of trampolines, as evidenced in this video!

I am planning on doing another fox image, as they are just too fun to not draw a bunch of them! It won’t be submitted for the Gallery of Foxes, because it will be way overdue, but it will be a fun image. I am thinking of playing around with gouache again, and we will see how that pans out.

And here’s something I just whipped up, after looking at Dice Tsutsumi’s amazing stuff.
She sort of has a Louise Brooks feel to it, I think?!

Anyways, it’s back to UFO Documentaries for me and colouring my super-secret comic book project.

By the way, that image is the most accurate self-portrait of me ever done. Here it is in colour:

It also is the start of what I affectionately call, “Tanya Fails.” They are going to be generally humorous sketches/images of myself, in various hilarious situations. Just a daily sketch, to get back into drawing for fun.

And there we have it! I promise, I’ll post more normal images soon enough. Maybe.

Here’s to a new start to the sketchblog! I will be far more diligent this time in posting (I hope.)
