Kids get the Spot

I managed to finish this up last night just before I turned into a pumpkin. Well not a pumpkin but a feverish-swollen-throated lump. I was hoping today would be super productive since plans were at a minimum however, I have had to rest and stay in bed all day. At least my sketchbook and computerContinue reading “Kids get the Spot”

Drawn again and again and again

Sometimes you have to draw something again. Kelly Light has recently blogged about this in a super humorous way. Her point is very true statement. I just went through a number of bad drawings and I’m still not sure I have achieved a final I love. If you remember my first idea didn’t work, theContinue reading “Drawn again and again and again”

Flying Bike

I am trying to juggle a lot of projects right now. Somehow this week got very busy! I love busy, it keeps me on my toes and sometimes I think it actually helps me to be more productive.

Boys Being Silly

The back of the card unfortunately really doesn’t match the front or story. But, why else have a blog! To show the failures that are still fun. AndContinue reading “Boys Being Silly”

SYTYCD – Chris and Ashley

I was sad to see them go, they did marvelous solos their last night on the show. If you want these cards email me at casey.girard (at) gmail.com with the name of the dancer on the card.

Three Boys Exploring

Well today was beyond a level of heat that I could work in so I haven’t gotten more done on my kids image. I can show work in progress. This isn’t the current stage of this piece, it is one of the first stages of how I illustrate: I am pretty disappointed that I didn’tContinue reading “Three Boys Exploring”

Sketches of Dancers

This summer I am changing up my weekly themes completely. Tuesdays are So You Think You Can Dance cards or sketches until the show is over and as I said last week Wednesdays are now Kids instead of animals. I did break days and posted a bunch of new cards on Sunday. Since, I don’tContinue reading “Sketches of Dancers”
