fisherman and hairdresser

I did a little drawing of two people making a living in different ways. I may explore the theme more.


Also, here is a really pretty song.

I am currently packing for a move closer in the city. It's nice to be diggin through all my old junk. Most of it is junk, but I call it treasures. Nothing like going into a thrift store and finding that one little knick knack that calls to you. You walk over, and shriek. "This is so awesome" you say to yourself. Your friend questions your taste out loud. You buy it anyway. For years it sits on the shelf. When you walk by it, you know its your little treasure.

Till next time home skillets.

gushiness


I was asked to contribute a piece to this year's Illest of Ill Artist Book over at Ringling. The theme was "Conversations: as told by Cornwell." Here is my contribution "Goodnight Kiss." Inspired by his night palettes and conversational work with an old romance film feel. Thanks Kelly, you guys are all really great.


And below is a piece I did for a friend's birthday who is a "Team Jacob" chick, she's awesome. I am sure that there are some other guilty Twilight readers, I am one, and I loved it. Haha. I still have not read Potter though, yep it's true.



I guess I am a sucker for romantic stuff.

pixies


This piece is called Pixie. Watercolor, ink, and 7 digital dots, haha. Will be in shop hizzle soon.

Some cool things going on lately. I am part of a group show at Uppercase Gallery in Calgary,AB Canada in the show And, the Typeface. A while back I was asked to contribute to the project by Margot Harrington. A bunch of artists including myself were asked to draw an ampersand for a website and other goodies-the end product being an illustrated "&" alphabet. I'd show the piece I did, but it may be a surprise. I'll post it when I can though! Anyway, if you happen to be there, go check it out. It runs through the month of September.


Also Scott brought home six awards from his student award show at the Creative Circus, so awesome!! He got a gold, two silvers and three bronze. I'm so proud, rock on Scott!

ANd here's a cool story: Last week we were out at a bar for Scott's birthday and we met the guy that sings the Free Credit Report.com commercials. Haha! SO crazy. My friend Mike got his autograph for me, he drew a flower on it. That's all for now.

I won't be so far from my blog again. It has been very busy here in Atown.
