A selection of Backgrounds from the Steven Universe episode: Island Adventure
Art Direction: Elle Michalka
Design: Sam Bosma
Paint: Amanda Winterstein, Jasmin Lai
Ahh, these were fun to draw. The large drawings of the island are laid out so that we could zoom all the way in on specific locations. The little geode in the last image is the one that you see fullscreen sized when Lars, Sadie, and Steven are cooking.
As usual, Amanda and Jasmin make me look a lot better than I am. The painting they did on this particular episode is bananas, and I’ll be stealing from it for my own means for a long time.
For Giant Woman - This episode was the last one I was able to be a full bg painter on before taking over as art director - It meant a lot to me to be able to paint this gorgeous location. Sam Bosma designed the BG’s and Jasmin Lai helped me out with additional BG paint and also some amazing zip pans which are an art in and of themselves (you all should all go ask her to post them for you to see!!)
My MS Paint compilation of my fav Pokemon art I’ve done so far. Happy 20 years to the game that defined my childhood.

This guy in my art class forgot his paint brush so he just cut off a chunk of his hair and taped it to a pencil.
I feel like he has more commitment to fine art than I do.
according to my art teacher i have a really aggressive drawing style????
use this to your advantage, kill the rest of your art class, paint with their blood, leave no survivors, use the change you wrangle from their pockets to buy mcnuggets.

I THOUGHT WE ALL AGREED
TO NEVER BE CREATIVE AGAIN

Hot Topic is known amongst artist groups as one of the worst offenders of art theft in U.S. retailers. I know artists are important to What Pumpkin, and I’d imagine multiple cases of art theft would be a very big deal. The most well-known of the cases were stolen fan art from independent artists, which is the same demographic the Design Contest was aimed to. I’m an artist myself and I wouldn’t want to support a store that steals from my peers.
The people running Hot Topic have zero respect to artists and to copyright law. They’ve been ripping-off independent artists’ storefronts, and continue do so. The whole company really should have been shut down long ago.
If you support artists, independent, fan artist, or any kind, you should oppose Hot Topic and MSPA’s association with them!
Tell What Pumpkin to kick Hot Topic out of the Design contest RIGHT NOW.
We have so little time left to stop this please tell them that it is completely unacceptable to do any sort of business with petty art thieves.
Even if you don’t know what to say, or if you think it would compromise the contestants; It won’t. Just please voice your thoughts in anyway you can put them. Don’t let Hot Topic get a dime out of Homestuck.
holy fuck
wow
Oooh Noooo, Say It Ain’t So 😔
STARGAZING
Christmas Gift for my best bro @bluesnowbelle
