Chore day and two more pictures digitally painted

I’ve mentioned the Frankentoon crayon color palette several times. Here’s what it looks like in Procreate.

Today was another chore day. On a chore day, laundry comes before art. Pruning the overgrown Oregon Berry bushes comes before art. Sitting quietly and watching massive cumulonimbus clouds form over the distant mountains comes before art. Playing with my dogs comes before art. Watching a documentary about Michelangelo for a few minutes comes before art. Chore day comes before art, and I like it that way.

I completed two paintings while doing the laundry. The picture on the left shows Jimmy embarrassed that he cannot bring himself to break his mother’s rules to please his rebellious friend. On the right we see Buddy Butterfly, the foolish friend, falling down the chimney to meet his fate. Just look at all those stylish red shoes. I’d love to have a friend who has two hands and four feet.

This is the Frankentoon Crayon color scheme I’m using for this project.
