Sketches (Syl and a mousy barbarian)

I'm still wildly determined to learn gouache. So naturally, what I‘m not doing is gouache. 😂 I'm buying stuff (hey, I haven’t bought art materials in four years!), and do sketches I may or may not paint, and I‘m absolutely doing all the mental groundwork for really, really convincing gouache paintings. Really. You'll see. 😆

I really wanted to sketch Syl manifesting on her swing, and she looks so cute here! Talking about cute, what I also wanted to draw was the character I play in our new Humblewood RPG. Humblewood is a Fantasy setting where you play little forest animals. My husband is a Raven sorcerer, my daughter is an Owl cleric, and I‘m a Mouse barbarian. He fights in the style of a Roman gladiator (retiarius, fighting with net and trident), he's 2'6'', and his name is Chervil, the Terror of the Fluff Fields. (He's actually a circus act, but his companions don’t know that yet.) He has a lot of righteous anger to make up for his lack of actual combat experience.
