Cat Farris: Art For Hire

I love Toph. By far, she is my favorite character in Avatar: The Last Airbender. Somehow it has escaped my attention all these years to do any fan art, though. Thank goodness for Periscope Sketch Challenges!

All right, I realize that this week Periscope folks are supposed to be drawing something else, but TOO BAD.

I wanted to draw some sweet All Nighter fan art, so I did.

If you’re unfamiliar with artist David Hahn, fix that now! His awesome new graphic novel series All Nighter is coming out, and to kick things off, you can download the first issue in its entirety for FREE. Just click here! Nobody I know uses blacks as stylishly and effectively as David, so do yourself a favor and see what all the fuss is about!

HERE!

I finally finished! My Janelle Monae piece for the the Periscope Sketch Challenge!

I love Janelle. She is one of the most talented people working in music today, and her stuff often inspires me to work harder and reach for better things in my art.

Also, I’m claiming this as…

063!!

I’m sorry. I’ve been remiss with my holiday art obligations. Not that I had any, but I feel like I should have at least made a Christmas card or something. Instead, Joe Keating put out a call for artists everywhere to draw him Tin Tin for the holidays. So what else could I do?
The result was this:

I had more fun drawing this than I had thought I might. I almost decided to do it in the same style as my Wonder Woman Day piece, but I ended up staying closer to Herge’s version of Tin Tin.
My studiomate, Ron Chan, also did a piece. You can view everyone’s rendition, as well as a great chat between Joe Keating and Brandon Graham about all things Tin Tin in three parts: Part One
Part Two
Part Three
