White Paws by JessicaRohr
Media: Image | Category: Painting Jun 21, 2009
Description: 2007 20x16 inches acrylic on canvas The idea for the setting of this came to me in a really interesting way... The character, White Paws, I came up with a while back, but I didn’t have a background or setting to put her in. I have no idea where the idea for the setting came from, but I was in my bedroom one morning (I think maybe I'd just gotten ...

Knobby Wobby by JessicaRohr
Media: Image | Category: Painting Jun 21, 2009
Description: 2007 17x15 inches acrylic on watercolor paper This was inspired by a weird looking pine tree I saw one day in a forest. Its trunk was crooked and covered with knobs, and it only had a few scrawny branches growing near the top. Plus, the whole thing was an unusual bright red. Almost as soon as I saw it, the words “knobby wobby” popped into my ...

The weird thing about this is that the background was the hardest part and I think I ...

Description: 2007 14x11 inches acrylic on illustration board This is my version of the classic faerie-on-the-moon theme. Even though, in my opinion, that theme is a little unoriginal, I couldn’t resist doing one myself, although maybe this doesn’t count since she’s not really a faerie. For the effect of illumination around the moon, I used transparent ...

Green Elliptica by JessicaRohr
Media: Image | Category: Painting Jun 21, 2009
Description: 2006 14x11 inches acrylic on canvas This was pretty easy since it has such a simple background, although it did take a while to build up the layers of green. Green actually isn’t really one of my favorite colors (it’s my favorite color to wear though), but it seemed somehow appropriate for this painting. For the sprite, I went through a lot ...

The Cloak of Night's Call by JessicaRohr
Media: Image | Category: Painting Jul 22, 2009
Description: 2007 11x12 inches acrylic on illustration board I think cloaks and capes are the neatest garment ever, and for this I wanted to use a gothic style. Doing the background pretty much involved flinging paint around and just plain experimenting. I swirled the paint on the surface and built it up darker near the bottom, then tapped white speckles on; ...
