Forgotten

Do you know how hard it is to find static images now that digital television is taking over? The answer is very.

Hazmat

It's a dude in a hazmat suit. Need I say more? Yes, well okay. Here's the original from my sketchbook, just for fun:

Hazmat is one word, not two. Who knew?

Orange

This is my contribution to the print set that will be available with the Crammed Organisms book coming soon! There will be nine other artists involved, and all the art will be plush related.

P.S.: If you live in St. Louis and you haven't seen the show up at Starclipper yet, go. You're in for a real treat.

Inks

Just some funny little guys. I think they're character sketches for new plushies. I particularly want to make this one:

He just looks like such an unhappy camper, but I think he'd be fun. Of course, I'd have to make his dark cloud as well.

I wanted the black to be completely opaque, but it just didn't work out. I'm using FW acrylic artists ink, and I just don't think it's thick enough. Anyone know of something better to use? India Ink?

Kieran says he likes the texture of the uneven black, but since it's not what I intended, it's hard for me to see it that way.

Kieran Took Me Out to Lunch Again

We asked the waitress who does that song. She didn't know, but I thought I'd commemorate the event with a viking ship.

I've also been toiling away at my various Web sites. Feedback is always appreciated.

Not Sure if She's Done

Trying to learn some new techniques these days. None of them seem to be working, and I'm getting frustrated. I think I finally like her, but at the same time I think I need to shove her in a drawer for a couple of weeks before I look at her again.

Weeping Skies

I actually finished this piece a while ago, while I was reading Jane Eyre, but I forgot about it until I pulled out the pad of paper I used last night. It's inspired by Jane's trials and tribulations.

I did another shop update this evening, which includes this piece as well as the dragons from the other day. I like the way the dragons look all in a row.

Another Work in Progress

She's wearing a bear. That's about all.

I finally went out and bought some freezer paper (well, I sent Kieran to the store for freezer paper), so I'm going to try printing this image onto fabric and making a doll. If it works out, more of my character sketches may befall the same fate. We'll see. I've heard that HP printers don't work so well for printing on fabric, but I've found that printable fabric is really unpleasant to sew, so I need to find another method. I'm also planning on incorporating embroidery into my photography, as with the marionette I made. Once again, we'll see.

Here There Be Dragons

Finally! I can't believe I actually finished this in time to submit it to the Beasts! project. I got a little indecisive in the end and actually submitted a red version and a gray version as well. And now I'm tired and hungry so I'm going to take care of that before heading over to Denise Simon's show at Cranky Yellow. Hope to see you all there!

A Beastly Piece of Work

Cutting it a little close on my submission for the Beasts! book.

Also, I found out last night that the host of Chic-A-Go-Go is a fan of mine and owns a Myra & the Sasquatch print.
