2019 The Little Mermaid #Artsketch Series ‘ERIC’ #AtoZChallenge

Thanks for joining in today.  Before I continue, I wanted to share that yesterday evening I added a second post, Dudley in living color.  I’m not sure what’s the best way to get the word out there. Perhaps, you have a suggestion, if so feel free to offer your thoughts in comments. You can find all previous A2Z links in my Little Mermaid Art sketch series easily under Latest Mews in my side menu.  ☞ ☞ ☞

Okay, moving right along to today’s illustration – Prince Eric.  To transfer my pencil drawings to the computer, I use my iPhone camera to photograph and then upload the file. Unfortunately, the lighting balance in our home isn’t equal enough to do this job well which doesn’t do my sketch justice. Hopefully, you are enjoying my shares despite the image quality.

In the step-by-step directions on how to draw Eric, the illustrator drew the Prince with a toothy grin.  I couldn’t get that nailed and it didn’t translate well when I photographed it, so I changed him to have a closed lip smile.

What can I say about Eric, except he’s a hopeless romantic and shy around girls? That’s why he was reluctant to kiss Ariel in the ‘Kiss the Girl’ scene. 😉

I don’t know when I’ll offer a Prince Eric in living color but as soon as I do, I’ll either add it to the original or do a separate post like last night.  Which way do you like best? 

[tweetthis]Celebrating the 10th anniversary of the #AtoZChallenge with my 6th-year participation in the April #blogfest. Join me this month with my #TheLittleMermaid characters #artsketch theme. E is for Eric. #pencildrawing #Procreate #illustrations[/tweetthis]

I want to squeeze in the Friendly Friday fill-ins hosted by my good buds, Ellen and Lorraine.
 
1. The highlight of my week is participating in the A2Z hop each day. Seriously, what else did you think I would say? 🙂
 

2. Only 16 more days until Easter. I thought about counting the days down till Christmas but then I figured it’ll by fast enough the way it so why wish the days away, right?

 
3. I believe I was born to be an artist but didn’t learn this until much later in life.
 
4. Age is an indicator of how long you’ve been doing stupid stuff. Hey, we all know by this stage in the game that age is relative; it’s what you make of it. You either feel old & act it or you feel youthful & alive! Don’t let life pass you by, make the most of each day beginning now!
 
The weekends generally mean I’m MIA in Blogosphere. That sometimes includes Fridays but not today. So, if you’re new here then don’t worry I will get around to all return visits as long as I have a breadcrumb to follow to your place. 
 
I’m heading off to link up with other fellow AtoZers and you’re invited to come along.  You’re invited to return tomorrow for the next installment in my Little Mermaid Art sketch Series! X💋X💋, Cathy
