KJV Psalm 91 : 4

'He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler'

This is a psalm for protection that I keep seeing mentioned and I've decided to memorise it.

I stopped doing it, so I need to get back into it, but what I do is read the psalm out loud every morning, because the same way we memorise songs by hearing them over and over is the same way we can memorise The Word.

I was thinking of Dani from Danny Phantom and how she's drawn with her beanie in human form.

I love the art style of the show and it's the main inspo behind the way I draw right now.

Part One of DP Panoramas

I keep not posting things I want to post because 'no one is gonna be interested in that' but I don't actually know that.

Can't know if I don't post and even if nobody cares, it's not like its a big deal.

The Puzzler Bunch- Cute Story Idea

I already posted the art for the characters here if you wanna see it. This one is an older draft that I've been meaning to post.

Enjoy!

I was sketching in my sketchbook, coming up with as many different character designs for children as I could. I'm working on refining this new drawing style I'm working in, you see.

I drew a trio of characters, a boy and 2 girls.

The boy was tall and skinny. I gave him curly hair, a rectangular-shaped head and slightly angular features (I used shape language a lot for my character art) One of the girls was also on the tall side. She had an oval-shaped head, long straight hair and round eyes. She looked very kind. The last girl was shorter than her friends. I already had in mind that she would be a bold and smart character (both in intelligence and cheekiness) She has a triangular-shaped head, narrowed eyes and a little smirk as if she knows something you don't know. I gave her neat braids (the simple, stylized kind) that end as a little afro puff atop her head.

I really liked this trio of characters and came up with a little backstory for them. I named them Harold (who goes by Harry), Marissa and Alice.

They're a group of friends that live in the same neighbourhood and attend the same primary school. Another thing they share in common is that they have a love for puzzle-solving.

Each of them has a type of puzzle they are best at. Harold likes word puzzles, Marissa likes mechanical puzzles and Alice likes logic puzzles, especially math puzzles.

Fellow students at school call them the Puzzler Bunch. They're known around the schoolyard for their 'unnatural' (for ten-year-olds) cleverness when it comes to figuring out complex puzzles.

------

If I were to write a story with these characters, it would revolve around them finding increasingly complex puzzles left around the schoolyard and places they frequent in their neighbourhood after the overly dramatic Anaiah (a year-mate of theirs) demands that they help her find who stole her jewel-encrusted compact.

They left a cryptogram puzzle in its place, so obviously Anaiah runs to her sweet 'Harry-bear' so he can solve it and find her stolen compact! Oh and his sidekicks can help too, she supposes (she doesn't know nor does she care about who can solve what type of puzzle)

They decide to take up the challenge and they're led around the schoolyard and their neighbourhood as each puzzle leads them to the next, getting increasingly more difficult as they get closer to solving the mystery of the missing compact.

The questions are who's leaving these puzzles, why are they leaving these puzzles and did they really have to involve 'Madly in love with Harry' Anaiah?

-----

I'll have an answer to all those questions once I do some more planning. I've also realised that I've made a lot of work for myself. I barely know anything about solving puzzles and now I've gotta create 10 puzzles for this story!

I was gonna draw patterns in her hair, but I was soooo behind already and just decided to add a bit of colour to other parts of her.

Oh, look, another nature cluster! I draw these when I'm out of ideas and out of brain power and they always look good!

Reluctant Jamette- Cover Art Front and Back

Art post #1 || Art post #2 || Here || Art post #4

This was part of my final assignment for the writing course I took in 2022.

The project was a book framework where we did a basic outline for a story. We had to outline a whole book, from the copyright page to acknowledgements and all.

It was quite helpful actually! I would have never thought to do something like that in the planning stages.

This was for my potential novel-length story called 'Reluctant Jamette'. It's about a young woman unwillingly given these demonic powers around the same time her part of the country is being attacked by these spirits called jumbies.

She and a sort of friend are trying to figure out how to get rid of the powers and end up uncovering their sinister origins.

WhOooOOOoOoOo!

Read the summary of my potential story below:

‘Shrouded in black and clownish adornment 

Her new normal she found abhorrent 

Pulled away from her mundane life 

She is forced to battle with demons that were not hers to fight’

Jumbies, mischievous and malevolent spirits have been plaguing East Trinidad for months and Twenty-three-year-old Tamika Ramsahai was the one chosen by a mysterious power to unwillingly defend against their attacks.

Not interested in protecting a public that scorns her at every turn, Tamika’s goal is to find a way to get rid of the powers once and for all. 

Through battling jumbies that carry cryptic messages and her co-worker who knows a little too much about her situation for her own good, Tamika starts to realise that these powers may have a darker intent behind them.

Daily Doodles- Day 11- 27/04/24

Wrote the wrong date. I did this doodle at 12 am. I was still awake, so why not? Also needed to catch up, because I was THREE DAY behind!

She's supposed to have bubble hair, but they also look like scales 🫧 🐉
