Yup, it’s Simulacrum Sunday, which means I’m posting art based on real things. People, still lifes and landscapes, I guess! Hopefully my representations are more satisfactory than, uh, un[satisfactory].
We’ll start the series with some Reddit Gets Drawn paintings I did when procrastinating from AVCon stuff a few months ago. I had a short burst where I forced myself to draw each day and heading over to Reddit to find models to paint was very convenient.
I tried not to spend too long on each painting. These are a couple of my more successful attempts!
