Sad SAAC Jesse: Hairy Situation

Here is my continuing series of finishing old challenges in reverse alphabetical order.

Whoa, this one is sort of current-ish I guess. It is covered with hair.

Sad SAAC Jesse: Houla Ghoula? What?

Here is my continuing series of finishing old challenges in reverse alphabetical order.

And this is a wikkid old one. So old. So very old. Which means it being a dead guy makes sense. He would have been full of life if this had been done on time, and then it also would not have been topical, which is better, because topical is for creams, not art.

More painter'ing. And way more brown that it needs to be, whoops.

Sad SAAC Jesse: Pirates! (and pants)

Here is my continuing series of finishing old challenges in reverse alphabetical order.

Today's image is: Pirate Pants. Or in my case: A Pirate Pants. Or maybe Panting Pirate. Or whatever.

You can tell he is a pirate by the ear ring. And because I told you.

Painter.

Sad SAAC Jesse: Rainbows!

I am going to try an finish all the SAACs I skipped. I am also going to try and keep them all under 3 hours. I am also going take a sip of water.

These will be in roughly, reverse alphabetical order. Starting with my most hated subject: Rainbows. I tapped into my glory days of being a teenager and making lots of pictures of clowns. Though, this doesn't look like those. No sir. Whatever.

Painter. Roughly an hour. Roughly .5 headaches. and one slightly cramped hand. Oh, and a background worthy of vomit. My gift to all of you.

Hey, a kittie, how timely.

So, I just happened to be commissioned to paint a cat at the same time there is a cat related SAAC challenge. Some planets must be aligned or something.... Anyway, here it is, my first ever cat painting:

The cat is my friend's cat Billie Boots. I painted that goddamn fur 3 times.
