Some big news for me lately is that i'm going to be in a show, with a bunch of amazing artists! I'm so honored to be a part of this show, since so many people involved have inspired me for some time! I owe HUGE thanks to Mr. Craig Harris for asking me to be part of the first show from the Nomad Gallery! (please check out his work, his girls make me drool!) If you're in the LA area on the 19th of September, stop by! buy prints! Have fun! (also i have three signed framed prints that you can buy there, nudge nudge)


Also! there are a few spots left for $20.00 commissions, this is my first one for Seth. If you like what you see email me, there's open slots my friends! <3

The Ruby Mockingbird!

A gift for my very good friend Molly Brewer. It's her character Rian Ainsley, who i adore because she always looks like she having a good time! I'm jealous of her! And, whee! i drew my own crappy patterns on this one!

Summer Sketching 2009! (part 1!)

Fun things, fun things! i love these....
Some sketches from this past summer! lots and lots of things, a lot of original characters that have been with me forever! hehe, i guess that's the theme of the summer. Pt. 2 coming soon! some of this stuff is featured in an upcoming project....TBA, stay tuned!

Skunky and Co.

Just a quick one i did of Skunky in her plain clothes, holding a skunk. Get it? Huh huh? But i really had fun with her expression. I don't know if the purple comes off as stink lines? it's supposed to be skunk funk, but i don't think people are seeing it as that. Haha, oh well. Stink lines, that's what that is.

I'm trying to get a lot of work done now, to make sure that i at least i stay productive. I'm working now, and if the job isn't in the art industry, at least i can try as hard as i can to work on my art to make up for that. (i work at a pediatricians office...wtf?) Plus i will be going to three conventions in october (baltimore, NY and boston) and i want to make sure that i'm more than prepared for them!

Matador Birthday Card

A birthday gift for a very good friend who laughed at me for saying "spicy" instead of "raunchy" or "sexy" ha!
i kind of like the goat....

Phoenix, odds & ends

My sister's favorite character, i have been meaning to do this for a while for her, and i'm glad i did. I'm a DC girl at heart, and in truth i don't really know a lot about her, (don't hate me!) but Jill is a huge fan. Anyway i had a lot of fun drawing her. The flames are the first thing i've ever attempted to draw using a tablet, but it was a good time, so no complaints, right? I figure i have wasted too much time trying to get these big wispy psychedelic swirls to look exact using ink and markers. It's good to know it's a hell of a lot easier this way!

Anyway, my original sketch: (along side some anonymous gypsy girl character i was doodling)

And just for fun a few other thing's i have been trying to work out in the nest few weeks, odds and ends, a viking (OMG a dude!) a Russian spy and quick poses (please excuse the bad scans, you know, wire-bound sketchbooks and all that good stuff.)

My first commission! Part One

I hear Immigrant Song every time i look at this one, haha

My first commission, for a crazy good artist who really shouldn't have paid me for this! Anyway i was trying to test out new things, and get out of my comfort zone, so i did the BG entirely in photoshop. I had a lot of fun with this, and i learned a lot, which is always good. It took forever and a day, but i'm happy with the outcome! I'm channeling my inner Frank Frazetta here.
There's a second part of this commission, and (dare i say) I'll have to draw a dude! let's see how i handle it...
