trick or treat

A book I've made

I made this about a year ago, and recently decided to share what came of it.
Things I learned for moving forward- have someone edit your writing. Use bigger paper. Higgins ink doesnt dry properly. Actually ink the lettering-don't just use the wacom tablet.
Into the Trumpet's Bell
If you save it to your desktop you should be able to read it like a normal pdf.

blues monsters

After drawing this I reliezed I drew the one in the cannon to look like how I was feeling at the time. I have a hat and googles like that. Though I don't have skin bits dangling off my chin. I would hope someone would let me know if that were the case.

sketch

So Justin and I are making a rock opera with the intention of animating it... I'll fill you in with a summary if you ask ;) Here's a quick sketch of the main character with her pet.

art beat monsters

These are some monsters I made to help out my friend Naomi with her art project (a giant balloon monster!) for Somerville's artbeat this weekend. She wanted to post some drawings folks could use for inspiration... If you're interested in checking out the fun, go to http://www.somervilleartscouncil.org/programs/artbeat/

Here's my scary (or not so scary) little monsters...

stuff from work

Here's some sketches I made at work...

Yicky Icky GranolaBars!

Firstly. I love my job. This is one thing I did today. One of my artist friends here (Keith) made a granola bar in flash for a project which spawned into seeing who could make the grossest. Check out http://bobjinx.blogspot.com/2007/05/gross-granola-contest.html" - That's Bob. Wanna eat one??

Mr.1-Arm-Penguin

My friend Bob sent me a link to a downloadable 3d animation program called Blender. I'm trying to figure out how to use it. So far, this is my penguin (I need to give him another arm- then figure out how to add color).

Cd cover part 2

Justin wanted this font instead...

new cd cover

This is a potential cd cover for Justin and I's band- I just finished it but he's sleeping so I'm not going to wake him up to ask about fonts... if there's a change I'll put the new one up!

neighbor

polar

fortune

I don't know if it's really kosher to post photocollaged pictures for illustration friday, but this is what I thought of this week... so... sorry if it annoys anyone! This is my boyfriend Justin, kind enough to let me use his face.

Snap

a threefer day!

Hide

The word of the week : Hide. Wouldn't you?

Old Art!

I made this about 2 months ago but havent taken the time to take a photo of it... until now!

Communication

This weeks Illustration Friday word (communication) made me think of being 5 and sitting on the kitchen floor talking for hours to my friend Lyzi on the phone - even though we lived 2 blocks away from each other. I think I got all of my phone talking out then, because I haven't been able to get the hang of it since!

paint the town!

I haven't had much a chance the past few weeks to make sometime new for illustration friday... but I did this week! hooray!

Weinapillar Doodles

These are Weinapillars. Flying, floating, having tea. You know you want them crawling up and down the trees on your yard. Or park. If you dont have a yard, like myself.

Buzz

I had made another image for this topic, but was disappointed with it and made another one with a creature I was doodling earlier this week (doodles to follow!)
