Just some drawings...

I know it's been awhile since I last posted, and I would like to say that was do to the fact that my life is just so exciting and filled with fun things, but the reality is that I'm just lazy.  After having a very depressing weekend which involved going to two different wakes, I decided to try to cheer myself up by sitting in front of the tv in my comfy pants watching episodes of Snooki and Jwow with my sketchbook in hand.  For some strange reason, watching that show always does a good job of making me feel better about myself.  Here are some of my drawings I did while watching it.  I am still in the process of making vector illustrations of these drawings in Illustrator, but for now, here are just my sketches.  Hopefully I'll get my vector illustrations up within a few days...

I would also like to say that I have a few exciting projects in the works, so stay tuned!

My husband's friend just had a baby.  He's actually the friend that introduced me to my husband 10 years ago.  I went to Pratt with him, and once I started dating my husband, I also became good friends with his girlfriend (his now wife).  The four of us have remained really good friends over the past 10 years.  Anyhoo, he's now an architect and has always had an appreciation for art and has always taken an interest in my work.  I decided that I wanted to make them something for their baby's room.  Unfortunately, since my husband hates my art work, this will never make it's way to them.  Instead it will probably just sit on my desk collecting dust and it will most likely end up in the garbage in 6 months.

Here is an illustration I did while watching old re-runs of 'How I Met Your Mother'.
