Woof

I love traveling and vending at art shows.  I love meeting people, playing with kids, petting dogs, answering questions and watching faces light up when they walk in my booth.  At these shows I lay out tons of prints and illustrations.  Big ones, small ones, animals here, animals there.  Collectively, I have prints with maybe... 100 different animals?  At least.  But all anyone ever wants to know is, 

"Do you have this dog?"

Well, here you go, dog owners.  New illustrations for you and your favorite pooches.  I'm starting a new series with all your favorite dog breeds.  Enjoy these first three!

Here's a tangled kitten for your typical Tuesday!

Look People, People!

Bet you thought you'd never see the day I did something that didn't have four legs and a tail, eh?  EH? 

Temptation (scan)

I did this guy a couple months back, but I finally got to put him through the shmancy scanner.  So, here's "Temptation," without the horrid mobile upload.

Happy Friday!

Opposites Book - Completed Spread

Here we go!  The VERY FIRST SPREAD of my almost-finished(!) children's book, The Little Book of Big Opposites.  Remember all those times I said, "Words to be added later?"  Well, words added.  More to come.... stay tuned.



Thoughts are welcome!

Overall view of my book so far. One more spread to go, then cover pages, words, and touch-ups!

Snowed in..... 20 minutes away from my scanner. Mother nature apologizes for my mobile uploads.

Book Updates!

It's gettin' down to the nitty gritty!  

I'm beginning to finalize the book.  And the perfectionism is beginning to show it's ugly teeth.  Finalizing comes with it's pros (such as adding words, designing cover pages, and finally gaining a sense of accomplishment) and it's cons (like fixing, touching up, and being a Miss Perfection Patty and entirely redoing the pages that I see fit for trash n' dashing.  Hello Extreme Makeover).  The following three images are redos of pages 1, 2 and 17.  Please feel free to leave feedback!

I know I promised no more mobile uploads, but I realized I haven't blogged a process post in a while. So here's a few from the creation of Page 3(under the direction of my favorite feline supervisor, of course).
