*Mailed out all the Print Giveaway prints. Thanks everyone, they'll be arriving soon!
*Finished up my 4-month-long 32-page kids activity book for Amtrak (waiting to hear if there's revisions! Fingers crossed! Pictures to come in future months.)
*Drew this medieval/Game of Thrones inspired sketch:
This may or may not be Sansa acting romantically tragic in the Red Keep...
During the last month of working on the Amtrak book I had a huge desire to draw for fun, but literally had no time. My illustrations & lettering for the book are verrry crisp and clean, and after sending in the last pages and relaxing a little, I decided to take some time to mess around with the new photoshop brushes and textures and create a new brush.
This image came together pretty haphazardly using a nice texturey brush I created (and some additional textures on top). I didn't plan anything out, I just wanted to GO. It felt good.
Plus, I learned i can draw a lot faster if I'm using a textured brush (I don't have to clean anything up!!) so I'm thinking of trying it out more in the future. What do you think?

lovely kali! great colors. the textured brush will save you so so SO much time!
I think it's delightful. Looking forward to more!
Love this!
This is wonderful, Kali. You never cease to amaze me. You have a way with working digitally that I can't even understand. And the light!
I'm loving that you are doing Game of Thrones inspired things. Your take on Brienne of Tarth was spot on in my book. The more I see, the more I want! Keep knocking my socks off.
It looks lovely!
I thought it was her Mum at first, but it makes sense as Sansa, too!

Beauutiful!
There's something about that front round tree which is supremely satisfying!
Beautiful brush! Its amazing what you can acheive with a nice brush. How do you normally work? With vectors and texture applied over the top, or layers of colour you modify with a mask? Im interested... :)
