watercolor double whammy
Since WordPress was being a real piece of junk yesterday I couldn’t post the previous night’s watercolor, so today you get a double whammy! I’m trying to do one a day until I go through this ten-pack of paper, so there’s still more lovin’ in the oven.

the triforce of radness
Katsuya Terada is a damn fine artist, and his illustrations for various entries in Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda series are among my favorite pieces of all time. The scale represented can be downright overwhelming, and each one displays remarkable use of color and generous helpings of imagination. NES games looked like this to kids back then thanks to all the gorgeous artwork that assisted in broadening their scope beyond the system’s capabilities.
Here are but a few of Terada’s Zelda drawings. If you want more, it’s all but a simple search away.
Naturally, when gearing up for last night’s practice with watercolors, I used Terada as an inspiration. While the end result is nowhere near the spectacle above, I’m sure you can see where the idea originated.
the neutrinos are too cool for school
I’m messing around with watercolors this week, which means I’ll have a bunch of artwork to post that may or may not actually be successful uses of watercolor. That’s okay, because I started with the Neutrinos from Ninja Turtles last night.
