http://srankin.artspots.com/folder/1747 SRankin's Favorites collection of images. en-us Tue, 08 Jan 2008 12:46:27 -0000 First art of 2008! Four elemental animals done as sticker and magnet designs for Further Confusion 2008, which I will be at in the dealer's room. I wanted to have some fun cool looking stickers I could sell at my dealer's table, and at future cons as well. So I picked a theme that's fun and pretty popular, and everyone can relate to and appreciate. I would like to do more themed sticker sets like this in the future, but I don't have the time before FC. The originals paintings and the sticker/magnets will all be at FC, so if you're going stop by my table! I've been working all winter break on these, so hopefully someone out there will want some stickers. ^^ Done with fluid acrylics (like watercolour) and coloured pencil on bristol Copyright to Katie Hofgard <br><br><a href="http://wolfnymph.artspots.com/image/14443/elemental-animals"><img src="http://www.artspots.com/files/image/file/14443/thumb_210/Elemental_Animals_2.jpg" alt="Thumbnail" /></a><br /><br />Medium: acrylic and coloured pencil<br />Tags: fox deer Air otter water Earth Fire elements falcon<br /> Tue, 08 Jan 2008 12:46:27 -0000 http://www.artspots.com/files/image/file/14443/Elemental_Animals_2.jpg http://wolfnymph.artspots.com/image/14443/elemental-animals http://wolfnymph.artspots.com/image/14443/elemental-animals http://wolfnymph.artspots.com/image/14443/elemental-animals fox deer Air otter water Earth Fire elements falcon http://srankin.artspots.com/folder/1747/rss acrylic and coloured pencil G http://www.artspots.com/files/image/file/14443/resized/Elemental_Animals_2.jpg First art of 2008!

You can really tell the progression from top to bottom of the page how I got more used to doing them, too. The first bunch (the row with the dachshund up) were all done in about 15 minutes each as part of a fundraiser to raise the last little bit I needed to get the 1" button maker. After that I started charging a little more and spending a little more time. I also got about 40 new copics for my birthday, so you can see how much that effected the color palette I was using.
