Still Afraid

This piece is still rumbling around in the background while I do some other work. I had a false start this weekend from the sketch I posted a couple of weeks back. It made me decide I needed to take a whole new approach to the image. Here it is:

Purrcasso!

After some encouragement from Renee I pulled myself together and took advantage of the extension to submit artwork until November 4th. Keith Zoo wraps up well what Purrcasso is, shares his submission, and gives some links to other awesome artists who are contributing! Here is a link to the Purrcasso site. It’s not too lateContinue reading “Purrcasso!”

Painting with Fall

They say the season you love best will be the one you are born in. I was born in the spring and always loved spring until I moved to New England. All right it helps that my husband is a huge pusher of fall but, the changing of the leaves is magnificent. Every year IContinue reading “Painting with Fall”

Angry Giraffe

In July I was sketching animals to put in my Sketchables interview. Thank you Sketchables for hosting me! Giraffes are kind of my signature animal. I figured putting a giraffe in my interview as “what I draw” would be very appropriate. However, as I sketched nothing was coming out and none of the giraffes whereContinue reading “Angry Giraffe”

The Full Recipe

Over at They Draw and Cook my pumpkin recipe was featured last week. With more recipes being posted everyday, They Draw and Cook is a fantastic resource for some fun recipes to try at home. Check them out! And to wrap up the husbands choice where I teased you with the finished image of theContinue reading “The Full Recipe”

Spooky

The comic finished! For more spooky check out my previous post too!

Stuff Made!

After a stirring blog post by Dani I sat down this weekend and tackled some art I have been planning to make for Halloween since July. No more being completely absorbed in crazy books-although, I did finish book 2 of The Hunger Games-or family things-even though Matt mandolined(sliced) off a sizable piece of his thumb-wouldContinue reading “Stuff Made!”

Need to Stretch!

If you didn’t see yesterday, the Odyssey by Gareth Hinds is now in bookstores near you! Go get a copy!

Frog Afraid of H2O?

I haven’t finished this image up but, I have some character sketches! This idea hurt my brain before I started drawing, it is SO illogical.

Process on Rue

Another piece of Rue, this time her in her element. I took pictures of my process during each stage. Update: Here is the sketch I did too: Pencils Gray Watercolor Shading Final Watercolor layers Photoshop darkening I am probably going to go back and do this piece again. I am happy with the painting but,Continue reading “Process on Rue”

Rue – Beneath

SPOILER ALERT!! If you have not yet read The Hunger Games and want to, do NOT read my post today. The image is part of the spoiler. Okay, I may be sick today and I was trying to take the day off but, I have this image in my head that I had to putContinue reading “Rue – Beneath”

The Hunger Games

sorry for a lack of post thus far today. I finished book 1 of The Hunger Games and I need a day to digest it. I have a couple of images in my head from the book I want to put down on paper too. I am working on those, but nothing is coming outContinue reading “The Hunger Games”
