draw a creature based on this description

this is a fun little game to play when you can't think of what to draw, you write down a simple description, thats limiting and not limiting at the same time, containing maybe 5 - 10 things you are gonna put in the drawing, i came up with this:

4 arms, 3 eyes, insect wings, arms longer than torso, reptile tail, elepant legs, claws

then i promised to stick with it, and set my time limit at 20 mins to come up with a design and simple color pattern, i made 5 and then got bored

2 dean cornwell value studies

2 studies from paintings by dean cornwell, i tried to see the values for what they were but i was pretty off in some places. doing master copies is possibly the best way to learn art. you get more intimate with a painting then is possible by simply looking, you start to understand process and relationships

dean cornwell is one of my favorite artists ever.




i used black and white acrylic paint and black and white pencil on paper
