Happy Sketch Fest Saturday!

Saturday may be wending to a close, but we’re still sketch festing the night away! It’s our 101st Sketch Fest, and you’ll find the gallery full of playful cats and fairies, and pieces inspired by unicorns, Game of Thrones, and the Victorian era.

Enjoy our featured illustrations, then take a dip into the gallery!

“Rainbow Magic” by Elisa Ferguson

Becca “Boo” Moore’s prompt of “Rainbow Magic” inspired this rainbow-bedecked unicorn by Elisa Ferguson.

“Toadstool Fairy” by Becca “Boo” Moore

Becca broke out a brand new sketchbook for this “Toadstool Fairy,” and she commented: “Warming up with a steampunk fairy!” This toadstool-appreciating fairy is on 5.5″ x 8.5″ Canson Mixed Media paper. And you can snag the original for only $20!

“From the Depth of the Ocean” by Mayumi Ogihara

Inspired by another of Becca Moore’s prompts, “Spooky Mermaid,” Mayumi Ogihara drew “From the Depth of the Ocean” from the deeps of her own imagination and this reference. This illustration is Col-Erase brown and white charcoal on 5″ x 7″ toned paper – and could be yours for $30.

“Keeper of the Last Summer Light” by Kir Talmage

This warm and homey sketch that creator Kir Talmage titled “Keeper of the Last Summer Light” well-evokes the last lights of summer. She commented, “I need more anatomy/life drawing lessons! These arms are giving me so much trouble! But I like her expression.” We do, too!

“Luna” by Maria Gonzalez

Maria Gonzalez drew the wonderfully enchanting “Luna” as a play on Mayumi Ogihara’s prompt “luna moth fairy.” You can take home the original 4″ x 6″ sketch in colored pencils on an toned paper for $16!
