Illustrator, art teacher, foolish nincompoop. Currently teaching kids art classes on Outschool https://outschool.com/teachers/Christache-Ross?usid=uKKj9aD5&signup=true&authTrigger=follow_teacher&utm_campaign=share_leader_link
Really fun to be back teaching after a long holiday break (while we moved to a new house, new town, new life on Vancouver Island) This is the full week of drawings we did in class. The kids had great suggestions and it was awesome to see them again! (finally got asked to do Asterix, on of my favs!)
Here's another character from the Twist of Fate DnD podcast illustration project. This dude is Fennec, A disillusioned Asimar cleric, touched by divinity, on the run from his past, never far from his bottle.
Really enjoyed the choices the kids threw at me today in my Outschool cartooning classes. Lumiere, Metal Sonic, a minecraft zombie riding a chicken, Goat with a Jetpack from Goat simulator 3, Kirby, Daphne from Scooby doo, and Grim Matchstick from Cuphead (my nemesis!)
Here's the drawings from today's 3 Outschool drawing and cartooning classes with kids aged 9-14. Some fun choices today, Bart Simpson, Bluey, Charizard and Deku in profile.
Todays drawings in my Outschool kids cartooning classes. Chill guy meme is taking over, lots of requests for him recently. Murder drones characters continue to be popular, and kids are really looking forward to the Dogman movie. Thats it for the Gen Alpha report for the day.
Another character I illustrated for the Twist of Fate Podcast project. This one was really fun to try to push a nice extreme pose. Andromeda is fearless Orc warrior, who's a combination of barbarian and Barbie. Finished art and initial sketches.
Really fun day teaching more cartooning classes on Outschool. These kids come up with some great ideas. Mimiku, a Minion, Hatsune Miku, A chubby monkey, Snoopy dressed as Joe Cool, Snake Puppy, Nyan Cat, Pikachu, Spongebob, Moriarity the Patriot, and one of the hardest Pokemon I've drawn, Ceruledge.
Great full day teaching kids cartooning classes on Outschool today. Here's the days projects. Uncle Fester, Kirby, Minecraft Zombie, Gnarpy, Symbiote Spiderman, Gigantomax Blastoise, Cyan from Rainbow Friends, 'This is Fine' Meme dog, Cat Kid, Gir, Phrog, and Uraraka from My Hero Acadamia.
Second character design for the Twist of Fate podcast project is Val, a haunted, introspective paladin who appears human (but isn't) Final illustration and concept thumbnails.
Looking forward to it!
Cool projects in yesterdays Outschool classes. The kids chose kid Yoshi, Kirby, a cute baby dinosaur, Cuphead and Mugman and Sokka pulling a goofy face.
good reminder, i've been meaning to watch this for years and havn't get around to it yet. Bumping to top of the list.
I ordered a bunch of stuff in your most recent kickstarter round. Looking forward to being able to hold your art in my hands!
With the 'Twist of Fate' project I was also tasked with doing 7 character illustrations of the cast of the show. Here's the first one, Sazey, a haunted wood elf searching for her abducted daughter. Here's the initial sketch and final image.
Illustrated logo of a sword with a parchment wrapping around it with the words Twist of Fate.
Had a great time designing a logo and illustrating some characters for a new DnD podcast called Twist of Fate. Here's the selected initial thumbnail and final design.
Some of my best memories of Vancouver are work less party related. Epic parties, naked bike rides, the church of pointless consumerism. And the core message of a 4 day work week is good policy!
Fun 3 classes this morning. Kids chose bowser Jr. Alphonse Elric and Sukuna. They also taught me this joke
q: Whats the leading cause of dry skin?
a: Towels
I was also late to the game with Sleeping Beauty. Probably as a kid had a kneejerk reaction to it being very 'princess-y' as an adult I can see how its really top tier disney, at least the animation and backgrounds. The making-of film is on youtube and worth watching www.youtube.com/watch?v=DW2r...
Great day teaching kids drawing classes. Really liked the students choices today. Hawkeye, Princess peach in fight suit, Leon from Brawl stars, Iago from Aladdin, Baby Garfield. Wings of Fire Dragon, Lots of cool ideas.
A couple drawings from recent Outschool classes. Drawing with these kids is so much fun.
Been really loving teaching youth artists drawing and cartooning skills on Outschool this year. Here's a few of the fall galleries from my Tuesday classes. Since every drawing is by request of the students themselves, It's a peek inside the minds of what Gen Alpha is most into in popular media.
Ok bluesky, let's play.
