Hand Finished Gallery:
Marker
Here you'll find a collection of my more traditionally finished pieces. This means they've been created using  Prismacolor Markers. These markers were introduced to me in college through a close friend who let me borrow them. I am indebted to him! The pieces are organized by completion with the most recent at the top.


"Ealaidh" A quick cool picture off of a good sketch that I made of her. I liked the pose so much I opted to finish it in marker, something I have not messed with in a while.


"Dig Crew" A revamp of my characters from the Hawkins Legacy. I opted to replace Joey with a new character called Jadi. She made things a touch more interesting. Don't fret! Joey may return someday!


"Soise, Ball of Fire in the Sky" My nephew's b-day gift. Made especially for him. I only have the scan of it for he has the original and I will make no prints of this piece ever... sigh! After finishing it I did not want to hand it over.

"Who's the stranger, Da?" It's little Rosie, the pint size trouble maker when she was mearly a ball of fluff. I was on a roll drawing session, and what a cute wee pup she makes. Figure she's only a toddler at this age...probably 3ish?

"Tavern Maiden Rose" She wants a pina colada in a pint glass...erf...ok, a bit too modern! But here is Rose. Don't let the dress fool you. She may only be a tavern maiden BUT she learned enough moves to be a bouncer!

"Kat" An odd name for a fox, I know. But her full name is Katherin Eidolon. She looks kind of sad, huh. Not surpirising. The crumpled paper in her paw is a letter informing her of her soulmate's death.


"Crude Disguise" 'Knew I shoulda used pitch.' Same critter as below...but this time he's SHHHH in disguise hiding in a tavern from the noble whom who filtched a medal of great importance. Combo technique.

"Bosun's Watch" Cold eyes stare into a colder world. Seahawk has gotten a makeover. One I'm highly pleased with. Only trouble is my computer makes him yellower. Oh well.

"Sir Bastian Dargoon"The amazing pixy hunting Bastian and his Wardogs...boy,...it sounded good, but in writing it seems a wee bit silly!

"Lannier Meddlicotte"A Celtic bard, full of all sorts of legends and stories. Of course everything's blown bigger than life...even Lannier!

"Ash" You've seen her before...but now she's new and improved! My little Sand fox, Ash looks all cute, cuddly, and thoughtful. But this critter is more than what she seems. In truth the Gungywamp Tribe is destined to do great things! Wanna know more? Than I better start writing the novels.

"Captain Draco" Wild and untamed...even after 100 years, Draco is a spacer who's seen it all through his one good eye. Civilization tends to shun this once war hero who has irreversably turned to the primative roots of his kind.Yet, his crew serves him with unyielding loyalty.

"Conchobarre of the Birach-derc" She is an aspiring warrior in the Tauth na Oirthir clan. Though amoung the younger members she excells due to her ability to 'slay the mind'. If you recognize some of the terms then you should know the RPG sytem she was built through. Conchobarre runs on the wild side!

"Mirage Revisioned" Never watch nature shows late at night unless you intend to be driven into working like mad on a new piece--or in this instance redesigning an old character. Mirage at last looks like a real desert fox, a bat eared fox to be precise.

"Time Cannot Erase" The Nightbird faces the harshest reality any soul can face...being left behind. But for her it's not just a lifetime--it is truely an eternity. 
Two of two finishes for this picture.

"Cap'n Seahawk" Lookin' fine in his 'intimidating' attire, Seahawk's acceptance of a life of piracy can be easily seen. Though...he only wears the longcoat and hat for those he intends to frighten.

"Cap'n Ulysses Kullery" A cut above the rest, Kullery is content to dress in his finery without exception. His belief that a beast can be judged by the manner of his attire insures there is never a stitch out of place on any of his clothing! Now his crew...that's another story.

"Don Qui-lypso" She's been done before, but never in marker! DQ seemed to be the perfect subject for my example at work--these markers ROCK! And they do NOT streak when applied carefully.

"Seahawk" Poor boy, seems lost to the world. One day his story shall come to light in the pages of his books...course it means I need to get my windlass in gear and get writing!

"Gyrlaird" Fierce and mighty, rarely does an enemy walk away from her savage glare. It's best to be walking on her side.

"Ealaidh" Ode to unicorns. Why are they almost always white? What fun is that! It leaves you nothing to color as an artist,...hrm, am I rambling? BTW, I like color.

"Armoan, the Warrior Gryphon" Would you mess with this guy on a bad day?...only if it's yours and you want it to be your last!

"Divining Dragon" Gaze into this dragon's crystal ball and you never know what you'll see! Created through Prismacolor markers.

"Fluffball" A cute lil' addition to Tir. She's a tiny lil' enfield whelp. Imagine the fact that a grown enfield is the size of an autumn fattened sparrow and you realize that this is one tiny lil' thing!

"Alsadair" A pine martin with an quirk for science. Alsadair is not a girl to be triffled with. She's the co-president of O.R.S. and Enfuego's partner in crime. These two critters run rampant in a friend's RPG--After the Bomb.

"Enfuego" Someone's had a makeover! I decided that a certain chihuahua just didn't look menacing enough in light tans. Not to mention she didn't really look like a chihuahua before...gee, it pays to research before you draw. :) She's the co-president of O.R.S. and Alsadair's partner in crime. These two critters run rampant in a friend's RPG--After the Bomb.

"Fox Knight" He's existed for many a year, but recently he started looking a little bit more...respectable. Yes, he has a name...no I won't tell you! Nah nah! Done in Prismacolor Markers.

"Fox Warrior Maiden" Inspired by a movie I was watching, this fox warrior came to the page quite by accident. But I'm glad she did, ever so slowly she is working her way into a major role in one of my storylines. Done in Prismacolor Markers.

"Youthful Mirage" Mirage in double image! I started by drawing the adult version when a few friends of mine asked me what she would have looked like as a pup...I added in her ill-fitted clothing as I doubt they made belly-dancing attire for such a tiny lil' thing.

"Key to Imagination: Foster Your Inner Child" Nearly unbelievably, an entire college level art class missed the point of this picture even with the name written in the far right hand corner. Ohhh well. I thought it was a creative double self-portrait. :)

"Laoch" He is a champion dragon, a Celtic warrior of old. A crude expression of disdain marks this dragons features. Another Prismacolor marker project.

"Celtic Dragon Bard" Right now he has not a name...perhaps someday he will have one. At least his grace and beauty grace the screen here.  
My first project done with my own set of Prismacolor markers.

"Enfuego, the chihuahua" Emerging from a joke while reading a role playing manual for 'After the Bomb', Enfuego <on fire> was born. A gangsta chihuahua with a passion for making things explode. Need I say more? Probably, but I'm not going to. >:)
