And here’s my finished piece! I like the colors in this illustration. I feel like it’s really refreshing and calm reflecting the transition from summer to fall, but still also vibrant, youthful. It was definitely a lot of fun to draw. Hope you all enjoy it!
I love the fall, ice cream shops and gossiping girls! New promo piece I printed as a postcard. I think I’ll do a some more in the same vein with different seasons. I love drawing cute outfits – initially I had planned for an entirely interior scene, so the I had drawn the two gossipy girls in the background full length with cute leggings and boots. But then I decided I liked the idea of separating the characters, making the two in the forefront more private and the girls in the background, even more gossipy because the boy and girl are so wrapped up in what they’re doing they can’t possibly notice they’re being talked about.
Sending out new promo postcards – and here’s the final for one of them! Love the way this one turned out. I love doing girls back to back, and doing two opposites like this, I thought was really cute. And I think my coffin locker was pretty creative, n’est pas?
I wanted to draw a tire swing and couldn’t decide between a fall or summer setting. So I settled with the cusp lol. The last days of summer, by the lake, on a tire swing. Can’t say I have ever had this experience, since I don’t like lakes. Why – you ask – because lakes are dark and deep and who knows what’s in there (exhibit A: Pirahnas 3-D)! But I digress – if I did ever jump into a lake, and swing on a tire swing, at some fabu summer camp, this is how I imagine it would be.
I’ll be coloring it in, prolly late tonite, or sometime tomorrow. I love it when I get a chance to draw baref eet btw!
Sketching is not my thing – I never felt like my pencil sketches looked anything like my finals, and therefore don’t look like what I’m imagining in my head. I’m working on some new pieces and this is a sketch I did recently and I thought it was pretty dang cute – which usually pumps me up for the coloring phase. Anyway, I rarely share my sketches, and that’s why – but here’s one that I felt pleased as punch with the cuteness. And I also rarely, RARELY draw backgrounds – that’s something I can usually just knock out on a computer, so 90% of my sketches are just people, and any objects that might be in their remote area, lol.
I love working with Maru and Friends, they’re a line of dolls that come with illustrated story books. The dolls are beautiful, and the projects are a lot of fun. I’ve put up a couple of portfolio pieces in my gallery, be sure to check them out!
Recent illustration for Girl’s Life magazine, Guys section! It’s out on stands right now. I love the illo assignments for GL, they’re always really cute and girly.
Super cute, was perusing Ningyoushi today and came across these cuties. I’m just a kid at heart. And I really really like owls – they’re like kitties with wings! Best of all, these Owlets are plushies – ahhhhh squuueeeze!

Ooo yay, my boston terrier portrait was included in a gallery of boston terrier thingz on Etsy. Cute and exciting!
Kristina, she’s one of my fave clients! Love working with her, she always has fun projects. Recently I did a “wedding tree” for her brother’s and future sister-in-law’s wedding. Had a crazy amount of names to accommodate, but I like how it turned out. I have to admit, the design wasn’t my idea, it was based of something Kristina found; I did make my own tweaks though to make it more unique and “wedding-y.” I’m happy that she’s happy with how it turned out.
