girl with flowers...2

I was told by a fellow illustrator that she felt this image to be too orange...perhaps she is right. However that was what I was going for...oh well, I decided to scan it anyway even though I am still working on it. I love her face though. Here is a close up of that.

Perhaps I will make a b-card of just the face (hmmm....)
Oh, got to go. Have a wonderful day!!

girl with flowers...

Just to show you that I have been making art, here is a ink and watercolor that I am going to send out next week as a mailer.

Nice Roommate Brownies....

I am working on myself. I think all people should. I don't want to call it a New Years resolution....but it is like that. I just want to be better. Share more, be more friendly. I cleaned my room, left the door open- wide open for anyone and everyone to see (yes, no hermit today), and made Nice Roommate Brownies- what makes them so nice? One word, Ghiraradelli...and walnuts, ok maybe two words. yumm. The brownies may have also been the result of late night sketching, Gilmore Girls, and a sudden desire (yes desire) for chocolate, nuts, and good old warmth and smell of home baked goodness.

hmmm....I can smell them now. Will have art for you soon!

Bon Appetit!

new project...

This is a new project I am working on; I told you that I would be making my paper people. I just haven't figured out yet though how to make my sewing look exactly like my drawings. The sketches still look better then the final product (which I am still working on by the way and is not shown) I have been looking at a lot of Red Nose Studio art to get an idea of how I can make these paper people come to life. It has also made me iching to try out polermer clay. I really need to get my act together and start selling my stuff.

I also found a really great link the other day on http://escapefromillustrationisland.com/ that had 150 great resources.

Enjoy!
