Scheming, cunning, deceitful. That’s what’s used to describe fellow Princess, Rival AND Cousin Majesty. (Above). Princess Royal (In brown hair) better bring her A game.
Princess Maddie Lilly and Rodger - A handfull by =ronaldhennessy
One wants to be read to (Rodger)

Babysitting can be BRUTAL when face the “Brat Pack”.
Back to my original artwork after gunning a deadline for shirt designs. Enjoy.
Princess Version 1.5.5 by =ronaldhennessy
Nothing crazy this Saturday. A small character update.
-Princess now reflects the 2012 look as my other characters. Most notably, the lineart is no longer black.
-Skirt is a little shorter in length and more simplified.
-The hair accessories used to make up her pigtails are more simplified.
Princess - Were all a little crazy sometimes by =ronaldhennessy
Some days will end up tearing your soul. If you can’t take it anymore, just lose it.
Just don’t lose yourself in the process.

Well, what a strange trip 2011 has been. I joined the site in 2005 and was a lurker, faving stuff every now and then. At the time, I didn’t have any inkling of posting artwork. I had a lot of…um…personal issues that prevented me from doing so. Also, I didn’t really draw at all. Towards the end of the decade, I decided to start learning to draw. I primarily read about drawing around 2009-10 and started to invest in sketchbooks and eventually got me a tablet. From 09 to around late 2010, it was a time of experimentation. I had some ideas floating around in my head for awhile, so I did some original stuff every now and then. For the most part, I drew stuff on paper as I wasn’t yet warm to drawing with a tablet. Needless to say the small Intuos4 I invested gathered dust. (I was drawing in an 8x11 paper sketchbook and on a much smaller tablet. I couldn’t get used to it.) Coupled with my anxiety over doing artwork in public and no direction, I didn’t create much in 2010.Forward to 2011. I began to “reboot” my approach to drawing. I invested in things that I would actually use. I sold the intuos4 small and got me a Bamboo which was larger and suited my drawing style. I went away from using Sketchbook Pro to Photoshop CS 5 for my primary work (I still use SBP from time to time for some sketching). I also started to work on making more original characters (some which aren’t “ready” yet, see my scraps), drew a LOT in my paper sketchbooks and dabbed in some Fan Art. Speaking of fan art, as you all know, Ponies are cool these days. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is awesome and you should watch it. My date of friendship infection was in February and never looked back. I eventually met some “bronies” in the flesh this May in NYC and saw it turn from a small gathering of animation/video game nerds who happen to like cute ponies to a growing convention where the people involved in the show are now attending. My social life online and off has never been this 20% cooler. Much of my views and faves this year comes primarily from my MLP:FIM artwork. While I have a strong preference towards my own original art and wish it had a little more exposure, people are going to gravitate towards what they want for better or for worse.These are the 12 pieces of art that I feel are my best in 2011. Feel free to take a look at them and don’t be afraid to comment. After all, I’m still learning to draw.I’m just getting started.Gallery featuring all 12 artwork.

Princess - Whip My Hair Back and Forth by =ronaldhennessy
I originally wanted to do this last year, but I didn’t feel that confident in my art. It would’ve probably made more sense on a pop-culture level to do it while the song was popular, but I don’t care.
Thanks to the many free paint splatter brushes out there on DA to make this look easy for the most part.
