Violet, the tiny sea dragon, doesn’t have wings but longs to fly like her airborne cousins. Swan and Duckie are the best friends ever. Duckie always rides along on Swan’s back because, well, he’s afraid to swim.

Esmerelda and the Pink Diva Bird
Esmerelda is a shy daydreamer who would love to dance ballet with a large ballet troupe and hopes to someday be a prima ballerina. The Pink Diva Bird dreams of singing opera at La Scala in Italy.

Happy Hearts Valentine Themed Sketchbook
Ok, so I am a wee bit late posting these. This hand bound, hand painted, 20 page sketchbook was a little labor intensive and most of the postcards my mom received from this sketchbook were critters without page embellishments. I just finished all of the embellishments today. Some of these may get bumped out byContinue reading “Happy Hearts Valentine Themed Sketchbook”

AEDM Day 12 – First Thanksgiving Foods
Here’s what I worked on today….just an idea for what a spread on the first Thanksgiving would have looked like.
AEDM Day 9 – It’s all about Process
Since I committed to doing a post a day for ART EVERY DAY MONTH, I am posting this, although much of today was doing research and sketches for a map I am working on and there is nothing sexy about a page full of lists. I won’t bore you with that. Plus, you’ll see theContinue reading “AEDM Day 9 – It’s all about Process”
