Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

Pareeee put up a bunch of art, and whilst I love doing the snake drawings, that's not the only art in my repertoire.

Senior project that I paired up with another artist to complete. We both had one half, hers being the 'colored' half on the right while mine is the 'monotone' one on the left. Her side was inspired by modern renditions of traditional tattoo while mine was inspired by the negative space and line of Henna tattoos. finished early May.


Poor picture, but this is a large wooden board with the lines burnt into the wood and then painted with india ink and water color. Sealed later and made waterproof. it's about 2 feet wide. finished at the beginning of summer.


Small picture - this was a doodle i did last summer. Was a shading practice, all pencil


This is an example of some of the other digital art i've done... Insect Anthromorphs. Red Mite on the left, wood scorpion on the right. Both are girls - the scorpion looks like a man on purpose. No sexual dimorphism in scorpions, so the 'anthro' has none either.

Re: Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

Difficult to see, but there are well over 70 creatures on this chart. All of these are 'to scale' with each other, and all but a few natural creatures down in the right corner, I have created. Those line of dots up top are various humanoids. just to compare.


More digital art of the insect anthromorphs - This one is a particular favorite despite it's simplicity. Cousins, the black and bigger one is older and showing his younger cousin how beautiful the things in the world can be.


Old pencil drawing from several summers ago. Dragon character of mine.


Kirin (chinese unicorn) a friend designed and gave to me a long time ago.


More digital art - Dragon inspired by chinese style dragons. wanted to draw a 'grr' face haha

Re: Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

Background to a digital drawing I'd done - I like it with or without the characters in the foreground, but here is just the background.


Dragon character inspired by a piebald ball python! (The tribal black markings are tattoos, not natural markings.) I created this just before joining the forum.


Recent pencil drawing of a large lizard like species that dwells in caves. These are meant to be a bit bigger than a horse.


One of my absolute favorite digital pieces... Compilation of 7 individual drawings, the '7 lords' that exist in the world I've created. this also doubles as a 'clock'. When you follow the colors of the sky in the background, they follow the times of day (roughly).


animation works, yay! This is a run cycle of that Piebald inspired dragon earlier in the post.

Re: Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

Just remembered this drawing..... This is the earliest drawing I have that i've done. Fourth grade. Compare this to the other stuff, wow I've changed...



Found pictures of some little modeling clay sculptures i'd done last year. I think they're relevant, haha



also did a wee dragon and rat. All three of these can be posed. I still have them.

Re: Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

And here is the Tattoo I designed myself and got shortly after my 18th birthday. This was also shortly after I got romeo - thus, the snake oruborous! Bad picture, and ignore the tan lines. Went to sand diego spring break earlier this year and got burnt to the point of blisters on my shoulders. yowchie.

Re: Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

just finished this. Digital drawing of an anthropomorphic pelagic thresher shark girl trapped in a fisherman's net and barely conscious.

Re: Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

Digital drawing of an odd little creature with no eyes that a friend of mine designed - here is one all curled up in a ball and experiencing a nightmare. Just some personal art to get me back in the swirl of things.

Re: Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

-blushes- thanks a lot! I know there are several other artists here on the forum... After seeing their art I think theirs' is better ^.^' but the compliment is appreciated all the same! I'm headed into college soon and will definitely be producing a lot of work for some classes...

Re: Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

Discovered some pictures of some art that I forgot about, whoops.

Stylistic realism, india ink and white acrylic on green sheet paper. Painted from a photo of a bug lucite necklace.


Tribal eagle sketch, india ink. This was for fun. Did a few different animals but this one turned out best.


I do realistic drawings too! This is one of the cats we had to give up a few months ago because we weren't caring for them properly.... Buddy the farm cat, literally.


I did odd things too - a stick person. Literally! Sticks, leaves, wire and hot glue. Absolutely nothing else

Re: Kaetlin's Art (pic heavy)

been toiling away at this for... I think two days. My hand hurts, and I'm up waaaay too late.

But i'm proud of it. Came from the dragon sitting on an orb that I posted earlier on this thread, but for easy comparison, I'll put it here too.





"Do your duty, never let them fade. Every dragon has a star to fuel and protect. When the star dies... So too does the dragon."
