My 100th post. I have been so nervous since I realized I had hit this mile marker. I wanted to be sure I posted something good. The pressure has been on! Although, stars aligned and a few things came together. 1. my husband had given me the prompt “where do dreams come from” 2. myContinue reading “100!”

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”
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!”
Frosty the Gourdman
My friend Dani and her sister Niki made a fantastic comic for Halloween this year. Frosty the Gourdman has risen this October so you better check him out while it is his season! Given that he is such a rich character and I LOVE Halloween, I decided to make some fan art. I also wantedContinue reading “Frosty the Gourdman”
Finally the Final
And the final step, colored pencils. Next week a new idea will be up for Husband’s Choice.
Summer Visitors
I have recently realized I love drawing birds. I probably should have realized this a while ago, given that if I aimlessly doodle a little bird appears upon the page. The clarity came through with a few recent events. First were our many trips to the zoo, seeing Flamingos and learning that their upper beakContinue reading “Summer Visitors”
Rebecca’s Choice
This past weekend my Dad and Rebecca visited us. I wasn’t working on much since we were spending time together. Although, we did take a trip to the zoo and I sketched the animals because they watched Lucien, we watch General Hospital so I sketched during the show, and then they requested a painting. So,Continue reading “Rebecca’s Choice”
Tinkerbell
I just finished listening to InkHeart by Cornelia Funke. It was an epic story with a great love of books. Faeries are described including Tinkerbell, who is very different from the blue dirt loving faeries of the Inkheart world. Tink stands and gawks at her reflection whenever she can.
World Cup Final!
I had such a good time with the world cup give away I am going to make some more! 4 more, one of a player from each team again. To win comment on this post by 3pm tomorrow, Saturday the 10th, and I will do a drawing. The top four names will get one. IContinue reading “World Cup Final!”
a Trade
At the beginning of the year a friend of mine, Miguel A. Cardona Jr. posted some characterized profile pictures on facebook. They turned out to be a project of his, check them out. He has a tutorial on the process, too. Anyway, I loved them! So, we set up a trade, I would draw somethingContinue reading “a Trade”
Germany vs Spain
Today’s give away are two more trading cards. I picked players that have stood out in my opinion or are in a run for the Golden Boot. note: The white patch on Piqué is for his always having an injury on his face. To win, comment on this post about which World Cup team youContinue reading “Germany vs Spain”
