Watercolor or mixed media

When I was at RISD years ago I developed an style that mixes watercolor, ink line, and sometimes color pencil. I've used the basic approach off-and-on ever since. I call this my "illustration style," for I developed it for that express purpose—to create illustrations. There are two broad categories that most of these pieces could fall under: editorial and art for children. I enjoy pieces that comment on aspects of society (editorial). Most of these use humor, but some are darker than others. Creating art for children is kind of like an antidote for the editorial work, a chance to shed the cynicism and sarcasm and to simply celebrate the joy and wonder of childhood. A few pieces however do not fall into either of these categories.
