Cat rackham!

CAT RACKHAM by Steve Wolfhard is the best comic you should be viewing with your eyes if you are not already viewing it. I love it and it's amazing and so I decided to make the character out of clay because he is adorable.

Here he is after being freshly baked

paint time!

All beautiful and colorful.

Ready for adventures!


I kind of forgot to sand him down after I baked him, so he isn't as smooth as he's supposed to be, but still decently cute. Measured he is 2 inches tall! He's having a great time hanging out on my desk.

More sketchbook dumpings

"dumping" is probably not a great word to describe posting pictures from my past sketchbooks but we'll go with it for now. Here are a collection of sketches!

This is a little sketch that I plan to refine and maybe do some paintings of.

Super old sketch for an Alice and wonderland project in a Black and white class in college. I did do a finished piece but I have no idea where that went. I want to redo this in color, because I actually really like this sketch for some reason.

Back of a guy in my class during a critique

And a little drawing to test out this new ink pen brush I got (it sucks :( )
I like to draw lots of hair.

MOLESKINE COMPLETED

I finished out my moleskine sketchbook, so here are some drawings from it!

I like her face for some reason

This drawing got messed up from some marker bleeding. I need to re-imagine this as a painting

Stippling! This also suffered some bleeding problems, but faintly.

Illustration Friday: Chicken

My quick little watercolor drawing for Illustration Friday. My family actually owns chickens (we don't have a farm... my parents just thought it would be fun to have some chickens so now there is a little coop in the yard) and this is a "portrait" of one of them. He actually was killed when a fox broke in to the coop a year or two ago, poor fellow.

Cabin on the Ocean

Summer 2010


I should have done this post back in summertime when it actually occurred, but I was too busy living a vagabond lifestyle.
But I'm sure these pictures can still be enjoyable now.

cottage times, right on the beach!

Squeaky room

Antique store

Sorry buddy :(

seashell shop


beautiful beaches all over the place

Did I mention this was on Cape Cod? Spent a week in a cottage on the beach in a town right next to P-town. I've been going there since I was a little rosy-cheeked young girl.

This one's for you! Android embroidery

This shows that I fully accept and support all of your geekery ways. Even though you being on your phone all the time is extremely annoying.

But... it is a pretty cute character.

I couldn't find my fabric marker so this is all freehand...... A little wonky, but I think it came out OK.


Robuts?


PS thanks again for the embroidery scissors :D

spring 2010

Spring is here! I base this not on the calender but on the fact that I saw flowers for the first time today. So I decided to go walk in the woods, and I took my camera along with me.

I love the natural patterns on this stump

even the slimy mucky pond is pretty today

trash :(

ahhhh.. this makes me want to go swimming.



I'm glad that it's finally warming up.. this was such a nice day compared to the week of rain that came before it. I hope that it continues to stay nice, I want a long spring!

Its been a while..

I need to post regularly! I actually spent a long time not even using the internet except for email and an occasional search. It had a lot to do with being busy, and having a computer that was so slow from 4 years of junk. But it's been wiped clean, and I am ready for action once again.

So commence with images!

"Hydra" mixed media collage

Contact sheet from class. Digital printed on gloss

Unfinished drawing. mechanical pencil

And a picture of my studio! (a small little table at school.) This shows my paint pallet, and a painting in progress, along with a few other experiments

polymer clay LEDs

I had fun trying to replicate LED lights, and a LED board. It's all made out of different colored polymer clay, with only a few pieces of jewelry wire as the prongs on the individual LED lights. The board is an actual replica of a board I saw online. I have no idea how it actually works, or what it does, since I've only ever soldered a board once in my life (very successfully though)

quick art post

Very busy... but here's something I've done recently


"lobotomoptopus" illustration for children's alphabet book. full double page spread. Not the final,
there's another version that is cleaned up, more detailed and with text. Gouache


And then here's an old painting I did, which I found on my old flash drive. Goes along with the children book theme.

I like the bear the best. watercolor and ink
