Zombie Blues! ART!

FLYING SEA TURTLES!

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 11:20:00 PST

Yay, new painting!

I've been getting the suggestion of "turtles" for some time now, but I never was really sure what to do with it...
Hope ya like!

Moar Leonidas and Master Chief Doodles!

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 17:37:00 PST

Here's a bunch of sketches following the process of making the Epic Painting of History that features Master Chief and Leonidas duking it out (based on the Epic Rap Battle).

These are just taken from my sketch pad. Now that I look at it, there's a lot of Leonidas...which might explain why I was so terrified of drawing Master Chief. I felt like I had absolutely no idea how to draw him! I'm very happy it didn't turn out looking like barf.

Leonidas style sketch.

Doodling Master Chief & Leonidas.

Thumbnail sketches of potential compositions.

Almost used this composition. Still really like it!

Leonidas design sketches

The black and white version, just before color.

So, I drew a couple Spartans...

Running With the Wolves - Video

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 21:04:00 PST

"Ohana means family".

Time lapse watercolor painting. If you think you've seen this before, it's because it's based on a daily doodle I'd done a looonnnngggg time ago. I liked the idea of it a lot. :D

A tribute to Cerpicus, feat. Nice Peter & Give Me Motion

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 17:02:00 PST

CERPICUS! The Guardian of Knowledge!

So, this is a tribute to Cerpicus. He was found by Peter at a yard sale, and now resides atop our piano. You can catch glimpses of Peter and Dante in this video, among other things.

Spoilers: IT'S A FOOT!

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 10:35:00 PST

Painted a foot. Based on a suggestion by gigamega4 on Youtube (ok, the suggestion was to DRAW a foot and technically this is painted. I apologize. If I were president, I would be stepping down from office at this point).

Feels good to do some anatomy for the first time in a long time. :D

Magic Mirror Doodle

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 22:22:00 PST

This drawing comes from a suggestion by TheStephiraheta-
"Can you draw a girl looking into a old fashion mirror and it looks all vintage but inside the mirror is a colorful wonderful world:)"

Moral of the story: Unicorns=wonderful world

Awkward Owl.

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 08:31:00 PST

Do you ever find yourself in this position?

Oh, owl. When will you get social skills?

Having a bit of fun after a crazy busy month at work. After all that dark, grissly halloweeness (which I love, don't get me wrong!) I decided to lighten things up with some cuddling caterpillars and an awkward owl playing the third wheel.
SNUGGLES!

Zombie Portrait

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 10:40:00 PDT

This is stemmed from a request to draw myself drawing myself. And seeing as it is Halloween, and that I was putting on zombie makeup for a softball game anyway, I might as well zombify things.
Hope you enjoy!

HALLOWEEN ART!
My favorite.

Hey, if you did your own Halloween art, or even a doodle, I'd love to see it. You can post it on my facebook wall and show it off to the world :D

Prints?! Yes please!

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 09:53:00 PDT

At last! It has happened!
I've been getting a lot of requests for prints lately, and hopefully I'll get something going for all of the paintings I do. But for now, how about some EPIC RAP BATTLE OF HISTORY PRINTS!

It's a limited run, and each print is signed by me and Nice Peter. You can pre-order them at his District Lines shop.

"I'll Shoot You a Star" video

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 06:31:00 PDT

Timey lapsey video thingy.

Based on a viewer comment that was really really sweet. Hugs all around!
Hey, the music is from GiveMeMotion, who you heard in my "Space Cadet" video. Yup. We've teamed up again. Soon we'll be fighting crime.

In other news:
I'm moving out.

I'll be leaving my current apartment for a house (huzzah!). So apologies if I go M.I.A. at all (though it is unlikely). I'll try and keep doing updates of our shennanigans.

I love you. I miss you.

Space Cadet Drawing + Bonus video coming soon!

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 11:19:00 PDT

Here's the drawing of Space Cadet.

And, just wanted to say that later today I'll be uploading a bonus video :D It may or may not have anything to do with Epic Rap Battles of History, but I'm pretty sure it does.

Oh, new ERB today too. Huzzah!!! Remind me to post the behind the scenes photos later.

Space Cadet & the Space Snakes in SPACE!!! - Video

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 16:41:00 PDT

Thanks to Dante (Give Me Motion) for the music and helping to shape the concept. And for the creepy facial hair. This most recent painting is actually a drawing, I decided. Done in India Ink with some watercolor touches.

And, as always, the drawing is going up for auction on Ebay. Check it out!

Of course, I know it kinda sucks once the bidding gets a little too high. But I'm looking into getting prints made of all my work from videos as well as some other free goodies.

Til then, you can check out Dante's pedostasche in his newest video.

Zombie Luv U!

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Mon, 05 Sep 2011 00:59:00 PDT

Hey! A new video :D Getting in the mood for September, which brings us one month closer to October, which means HALLOWEEN!

Starting the day off right.

noreply@blogger.com (Mary G) — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 10:12:00 PDT

Nothing like the smell of coffee and ink first thing in the morning (and yes, it is 10:00 a.m. here. And yes, I consider that early.)

Never was a coffee drinker before I got this job. But you know what? It's an awesome job, so I don't care. Now, off to help shoot another Epic Rap Battle today!

Alien Abduction! Give them back!

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Tue, 23 Aug 2011 09:57:00 PDT

Alien Abduction! Give them back!

This is exactly what happened to the dinosaurs. Not a meteorite, not disease, not climate change...mystery of science: solved.
It was UFOs.

And, as always, this painting is up for auction (for a short while). I'm starting it at a penny, so you can decide what it's worth to you.
Thanks!

Epic Rap - Dr. Seuss vs Shakespeare

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 14:54:00 PDT

IT IS DONE!

I'm super excited to be a part of this rap battle. The costumes were extremely fun (though frustrating) to make and as a whole it turned out AWESOME!

Our editor, Sean, did an amazing job on the background. Watching the rough cuts with the background + costumes for the first time it was like "WHOAAAA!!!! We pulled it off!"

And here's some sketchery. Is it arrogant to admit that I was inspired to do some drawing after watching the video again? The guys put on quite the performance. I also wanna do a drawing of Watsky as Shakespeare and Mickey as Dr. Seuss. Why not do a whole series!!! :P

Sorry I didn't get a video of this sketch. I thought of it about halfway through. But, I'm hoping to have more drawing time and with that time I wanna do some ERB art... So...there.

It's a Sloth Eating a Donut.

Who's Your Teddy?! Extreme Watercolor Painting!!!!

noreply@blogger.com (Mary Doodles) — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 01:00:00 PDT

Action Teddy!

"This bear is done cuddling!"

"He's done playing around!"

"Don't mess with the bears!"

"His internals may only be stuffing, but he's got guts!"

No more tag lines.

New time lapse video!

These painting videos are going to be going up every Monday now. Hope you enjoy!

P.S.

the original painting is for sale. I'm letting people choose their price, so it's up for auction here, starting at $0.01.

Mahalo!
