This Drawing is Just Right

Another drawing for you today, Goldie and Baby Bear.

 Had such a fun time doing these recent two pieces that I am planning a few others to add to my “Fairy Tale” series. Unfortunately I won’t have time to color them for a few weeks but I will post the sketches for you all. :)
I also want to start on a Nursery Rhyme series. I’m still figuring out what I want it to be, but I’m thinking I might do the girls with stuffed animals. Like, Little Miss Muffet, Little Bo Peep, Mother Goose, etc. Still thinking about it though…not sure how much time I have.  

Thanks for reading.

Red Riding Hood and the Not so Big or Bad Wolf

FINISHED! All done coloring Red and Little Wolf.  Really like how it turned out.  
I’m working on a sketch for another one with Goldie Locks and the little bear, should have photos tomorrow :)
After this, I think I’m done with the new sketches for a little while so I can get a few pieces colored, then I will be taking some time to work on another Book Cover for my husband’s second book in his Winston and Baum series.
Working on the cover is going to take a few weeks probably but I will be posting progress pictures along the way, so keep checking my blog.
Thanks for reading.

PASSED!!!

PASSED JURY! I have been accepted into the Dragon Con Art Show in September! :)
Unfortunately this doesn’t guarantee me a spot, they have so many participates, that sometimes they don’t have the space for everyone. So fingers crossed, the Myxies get to attend their favorite Con this year.
Only a little over 4 months to get all the inventory I need ready for the show, that isn’t long at all, I need to get my rear in gear. Speaking of gears, I will be working on a bunch more Steampunk Dragon Pals AND their New Friends, the Steampunk Myxie Pals, for the show. Along with brand New Myxies, New Prints and New Paintings. So much to do, so little time to do it in. Wish me luck everyone. :)

Thanks for reading!

Steampunk Gotham Girls

Okay so I’m starting on a new little project…a few years ago I did some ATCs(Artist Trading Cards) of female versions of Batman’s, The Joker, The Riddler and The Penguin. Well I liked the concept and thought I would do a larger print of them, AND since I am SO enjoying Steampunk-ifying my work right now, I desided to combine the two, for a Steampunk Gotham Girls series! It’s gonna be fun :D  
Anyhoo, I am almost done with my sketch of The Penguin, need the fill in her stockings and I’m adding a border…trying to think of a good one. Hmmmm…
Sorry the picture isn't great, this is 11x17 so it wouldn't fit into my scanner.

Thanks for reading.

Helloooooooo Operator!

Enjoyed doing the “Mind if I smoke” Steampunk girl sketch from last week so much, I decided to do another one…and I am planning at least more. :)
I call her “Hello Operator”

Funny side note….I googled “old phones” for reference material for this sketch, so I could get the telephone right, but Google mostly brought up slide cell phones and flip phones.
Considering I still have an “old” cell phone, I realized, if Google is calling me old now, it must be official LOL

I am going to be doing a few more sketches so keep checking my blog for updates.
Thanks for reading.

Anyway Here is my Steampunk Dorothy and her little....gun too :P  See the Emerald City in the back, it of course will be all green and shinny once I color this piece, along with those big ol’sneakers, they will be RED-Rubyfied. :)



I have been working on inking a few of my newer sketches so keep checking out my FB page and Blog for updates.
