Sinbad! Eris! I really do love both of these characters!!! 🙈💕 . The second picture here is a traditional drawing I did a couple years ago. I always wanted to turn it into a full painting and so this series was the perfect opportunity to do so! 😁🙌 . Hope you all are having/have had the loveliest day so far my Whimsies!! . . #sinbad #illustratorsoninstagram #erisgoddessofchaos #illustrations #dreamworksanimation #dreamworks Happy Father’s Day to all those deserving Dads out there! 💪👊 . Figured these were the perfect characters for today! At first I wasn’t sure I’d be able to pull them off but I feel like it went much better than planned. 😅 . I haven’t seen ‘The Incredibles 2’ yet, but my whole family and I are really looking forward to it!! The only problem is that living in such a rural area means new releases take FOREVER to come to our little retro cinema! 😭 . . #incredibles2 #incredibles #disneypixar #illustratorsoninstagram #illustrationartists #fanarts #fanart Second in my series, Merida! Gosh she has the best hair, I’m pretty sure I want her hair... 😍 . Whenever I do these series’ I create a big long inspiration list and then when I sit down to paint I peruse the list and whichever character pops out at me then becomes my subject. 😊 . Merida struck a chord today inspirationally and I actually kinda tried to talk myself out of it. 😂 I warned myself, “It’s a lotta hair Mich, do you really wanna draw all that hair today?’ Apparently I did! 😄 . I wonder who will strike my fancy tomorrow? 🤔 Check back with me then! 😁 . . . #disneyprincess #disneyfanart #merida #brave #princessmerida #princesses #illustratorsoninstagram 📣 New series! 🎉I’m going to translate a series of animated film characters (Disney, Dreamworks & Ghibli inspired) into my style. I know many, many, many artist’s have done this so it’s not an original idea but each drawing will be original in my style and I think it will be fun nonetheless. 😁 . Kicking off today with Maleficent! I love her character design it truly is brilliant. 👌🏻💕 . If you have a character in mind from those three film companies that you’d like to see in my style, feel free to comment them below. I don’t make any promises that I’ll do them all but they will make up an inspiration list for me to draw from each day. 😊 . And finally, I really need to thank all of you for the ultra kind comments you left me on yesterday’s post. I didn’t respond to them but I read every single one and cried all the way through. You are loved! 😭❤️ . . #disneyvillains #maleficent #disneyfanart #illustrationartists #illustratorsoninstagram Reposting this again because it really is important. 💕 My son, @the_scrawl_hive was diagnosed with TS at the age of 8 years old, he is now 17. Tourette Syndrome (TS) causes tics that are sudden, intermittent, repetitive, unpredictable, purposeless, nonrhythmic, involuntary movements or sounds. Tics can be either simple or complex. The most important thing to understand about the tics associated with Tourette Syndrome is they are the result of a neuropsychiatric condition. The sounds and behaviours are involuntary and are not being done by choice. TS can often come with a package of other syndromes, my son also has OCD, anxiety, ADHD and low level depression. While some medications are available to help with the symptoms they do not completely take them away and there is no cure. Since early childhood his daily life has been an ongoing battle, and yet, despite this hard journey he is growing into one of the most likeable, kind, and loving human beings I have ever known. 💗A couple years ago he created an original cartoon as a way to describe what life was like for him on a daily basis. A monster lurking always attacking and ready to pounce on him the minute he woke up, the shield you see pictured represents his family, counsellors, friends, and doctors who try to help him through. My son and I decided that we'd like to try to raise more awareness for people who, like him, suffer with real mental health concerns. In addition we also wanted to try to give back to an organization that works hard to support people with TS here in Canada, tourette.ca. Thus from Hunter's cartoon I was inspired to create this painting, it is available as a print, bookmark and a sticker and all of the profit from the sale of these items will be donated to Tourette Canada. We hope you'll consider supporting us through this endeavour by purchasing one of the items or even just joining us by sharing this story, painting and products with others. Further explanation about the painting continues in comments👉 . . #dragonart #dragons #illustrationartists #tourettesyndrome #mentalhealthawareness💚
