This is very cool I was just about to draw one of these for my Native American class. Mine will look different though, I promise!
Very awesome interpretation, very beautiful

I agree, Native American spiritual creatures (aside from random animals and the Wendigo) don't get much press time. Such a shame.
I'm going to do seven or so of them, including the Underwater Panther/Lynx

This is... so cool! *w*

I like the contrast of the paper against the pretty watercolors. :3 Hope your hand is recovering, though! xD;

Awesome job! I love the mix of both tradition and realistic like elements too it. I haven't even finished one project yet. I think my next one though will be an animal related one- I've been thinking to hard about other kinds of art I've forgotten the one that I like the most! XD

And bleh. How much time do you have? We've been super rushed so far--need to start third project tomorrow. ;; I don't get why we're going so fast since there's only 12 projects...

Swooping-Puma In reply to RileyKitty [2010-09-21 03:14:25 +0000 UTC]

trying to get 6 done by january i think... but we did a lot of research over the summer. I already have a good 150 pages of drawings and concepts from that. We're also coming in on Saturdays. I think he said that having 2 projects fully done each month should give us good time.

Unfortunately my first project has to do with photography, so I can't really finish it until the photog teacher brings in his equipment. >.<

Holy f**king crap, 150 pages?! We only did 20 over the summer and that took forever
It sucks you have to go on weekends...

I'm a fast drawer? A lot of those are research photo's to i took in new york and process crap. Copying down process makes everything harder.
Battle against quality vs. quantity I guess. XD

Exactly what was the project anyways?

Thank you :3

ugghh it sucks especially without a proper board to cut it on ><

The project was basically, 'something with multiple layers.' But almost everyone else seemed to be doing collages so I guess I ended up doing more work than necessary... :'D

I recommend using natural lighting during the day. That's how I get my photos.

NutellaAddict [2010-09-20 05:41:36 +0000 UTC]

Thats really cool, what type of media did you use? kind of looks like water colour and pencil crayons with pencil outlines but then the lines are to exact and bright for watercolour, did you put waxx on the page or cut out paper on top?

RileyKitty In reply to NutellaAddict [2010-09-20 21:56:40 +0000 UTC]

Thank you ^^ I used just watercolor for this one, other than for the sketch. The white parts were cut out from a separate sheet and glued on top
