Not everything I “find” on a page is an animal. The other day I found a rose, and on this page, I found a lady with flowers, her expression showing us that maybe stopping to smell the flowers and taking that moment for a quick meditation, just may be what the “doctor” ordered.

Albert
Albert was used to being on his own, living free as a bird with no worries in the world. Then he met Esmerelda.
A rose unlike any other
I still have a bunch of prepped blobs waiting to be turned into something. This blob screamed flower. I kept trying to find a creature but this flower kept saying “me me, draw me!” So I did.
Long beaked Cardinal
Another Imaginary Creature pulled out from the page. I drew the beak long and almost erased it, but left it because it isn’t supposed to be representational anyway. There’s a lot of angles to this guy. He uses them to hide in oak and elm trees. I also included what the page looked like beforeContinue reading “Long beaked Cardinal”
Georgie is about to have a bad day
I have a few “prepped” homemade sketchbooks with patterned backgrounds that I use for characters. Sort of like a staged background. Today I used the background to randomly “find” a character. This guy almost jumped off the page. But then he looks very terrier-ish so that would be normal for a terrier. Georgie is aContinue reading “Georgie is about to have a bad day”

Jenny
There, hidden in the palms! Jenny saw another creature, just like her! This is an abbreviated version of what I just wrote about Jenny. Jenny is already, unexpectedly, becoming a story. Yeah, she’s weird looking and could potentially be scary But looks are often deceiving, aren’t they? This is an Artist Trading Card sized art.Continue reading “Jenny”
Carmella
Just hatched this morning, everything was new to Carmella. She looked down at her feet. “Wow, what are those? Can I eat them?“ This is an Artist Trading Card sized art. ATCs are traded between artists and they have to be 2.5 x 3.5 in. I prepped a few ATC sized pieces because I canContinue reading “Carmella”
