What's on my workspace Wednesday......working digital today....

Hi Everyone....since last week I shared with you all some pen and ink sketches in my Sketchbook....this week I happen to have this cutie on my workspace right now and I am working on some colour variations of this piece....so I thought it was perfect to share what I have on my workspace this Wednesday....

I hope you are all having a super inspiring week filled with all kinds of fun creative projects and I hope that you will all pop back often to see how this latest work unfolds....

My process is pretty simple....I always work with a pencil in my sketchbook....when I create what seems to be to my liking...I then do an ink version of the piece....scan it and then work with Illustrator and Photoshop to clean it all up and make it happy.....Sharing this with everyone over at WOYWW.....a fun place to see what people are working on.....love it!!!

Happy Wednesday Everyone....and Happy Creating!!!

Illustration Friday - "burning"

As soon as I read the theme this week....and since it is breakfast time here...I immediately thought of something I hate...burning toast....

so I did a quick little 5 minute sketch and these guys came to life...

meet Sally the Toaster....she always thought way too hard when she was working and sometimes she really burned her friends Larry and Moe....needless to say it wasn't a good way to start the day.....but after some scrapping and a JAM session....things were back to normal....

Happy Friday Everyone!!!!

p.s. Illustrators....don't forget to start thinking about your 2011 Marketing ...you can have a jump start and get a really cool deal from this project!!!

Illustration Friday - Proverb

As you sow, so shall you reap.
-- English Proverbs

I always try to do nice things so nice things can happen to me.....hence my take on this week's IF...

what you do comes back to you--you get back what you give out. I try to always have good intentions and my symbolism is sowing the pretty flowers...so one can enjoy their beauty....

Nothing like a cool Auntumnal evening to make you run home!!!

This week over at MMM the theme is cool it down...so I wanted to share one of my first ever published pieces....this is an old piece but I still love this cute little witch....she is a little scared as she walks by the cemetery as a cold breeze is upon her....I also love that I am seeing so much Halloween inspired art lately....so I thought this would be fun to share....

As an illustrator I love looking at some of my earlier work...you can see how much your style changes over time....and you can learn from the past....

Happy Monday!!!
