At the end of today this will be apart of a ten foot billboard for Salon Hush!

A work in progress

I did this when I was out of my head one night.  I found it today and I must have completely forgotten about it because I had no idea it existed. It was in my work notebook? 

I want to do something more graphic with it and incorporate water colour (with lots of colour). Woooo

I AM TRYING

I just got the internet in my apartment! CYBER! Jk

If everything goes according to plan, I will be painting more in the next few weeks and buying a new camera at the end of the summer.  You know what that means!? Hot photos!

Friends: I am also trying to spend some much deserved time on myself as I think I was lost for a few years there.... Not to worry, I am back.  That is all!

P.S. Sorry for the lack of illustrations in this post. I feel like a bum.

girl you have no faith in medicine

I suppose this one is a bit Egon Sheile inspired (at least the legs). She is leaning against an imaginary wall and sitting on imaginary steps (for the record). Enjoy 

A Nude

Most of this was done with graphic pen but the eyes and hatching were rendered by tablet!

A doll and dear

This is for Sarah of acuriousseamstress.blogspot who posted a wicked photo of an actual doll with two little toy dear...and then I fell in love and then I couldn't put my pencil down! (Photo below)

CUTE!

I am finally alone in my new apartment in Saskatoon for the summer. I feel like a spider because I have a lot of work to do, all on my own. I will be doing some illustrations this week and posting them hopefully by the end. I made this for my friend Shelby who just got into the Rhode Island School of Design and I am VERY proud of her. It's also a little reminder for the blog that I will be back! :)
