It’s that time of year—Ithacon Comic Book Convention is Saturday Feb 4, 2012 starting at 10am…Time to make some new sketches!
After working with Liz Lomax (www.lizlomax.com) I brought to life one of my Doll Factory Illustrations:
I had a drive, to recreate the Twigs logo I did years ago—in oil/digital.
The Butcher, The Baker and the Candlestick Maker…sail away in their shiny tub!
15″x 20″ Recreated Miss Muffet in Oil and Digitial on Illustration Board
Little Miss Muffet, sat on a tuffet, eating her curds and whey.
Along came a spider and sat right beside her,and frightened Miss Muffet away.
Daedalus teaches his young son to fly with care…it’s his first time with new wings while Pandora opens her legendary mistake——-these were demos for an Art 3 high school illustration class.
This last year, I had some fun again with my students’ likenesses…They even dressed up as the characters. As a thank you, they got to keep the printed banners from the Mocha Moose.
Life is always about endings and the new beginnings we can embrace. As an visual artist (and musician) there are always changes internally that evoke a strike of lightening. In my past, little lightenings here and there have brought me great insight and new visions.
I wonder when the next lightening will strike.
Life can be fun for a rabbit…when your world is a carrot. With these particular pieces, I started with no idea, just shapes rubbed from blended color—and wait to see WHAT I see…then flesh it out.
Prettylines was created as part of my MFA thesis at Hartford University in 2009. It was a marketing and illustration project that encompassed studying and targeting a young feminine market by understanding the draw of symbols, patterns, color and nature.
The Doll Factory illustrations are a collection of portraits of the young people I’ve met.
