Three

 

This is a painting I originally did for an album cover of a local band.  Long story short, it was never used, so I decided just to turn it into an illustration.  

Always throw away the first pancake.

Always throw away the first pancake.

Meaning: if you allow yourself to make mistakes, your future attempts will be great!

I heard this quote for the first time on the radio one morning.  I thought it was a pretty cool quote and I quickly doodled it on a piece of notebook paper during my lunch break. 

Then I thought there was a chance it might look good as a painting, so I gave it a shot.  

This is my first attempt at creating a type painting.  I have always had a love of type, so combining that with my love of painting was something I always wanted to try.  I will be doing more of these in the future (hopefully)!

I effin' love avocados!

It's true.  In an attempt to become healthier, I've be making my own 'green' smoothies for breakfast every morning.  While experimenting with different fruits and veggies, I've come to discover this amazing fruit!  I've been eating it every single day!  Not only is it delicious but it's also full of nutrients that keeps you full and satisfied throughout the day!  In fact, when I'm not eating it, I'm thinking about it, and when I sleep I'm dreaming about it.  So here is my daily doodle to confess my love of avocados!

I've been slacking with my art the past few weeks.  I do have a type painting and a pencil portrait in the works, and I'm still working on designing my new website.  Hopefully I will be able to share these projects with you soon!

 Keep on truckin'!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Here is my Valentine's Day doodle.  I scanned some newspaper in as the background and I'm kinda liking the texture it adds to this illustration!  

Sketch book doodles!

It's been awhile since I last posted on here.  Since my last post, I decided that I was going to re-design my entire portfolio website.  I deactivated my old site, bought a brandy new domain name, and am currently hard at work designing a brand new site with brand new work!  I was set back a little bit because I am designing my new site in Dreamweaver, a program I have never used before, so I was a little confused and have been watching countless youtube tutorials.  Hopefully it won't be too much longer until I can share the new site with you all!  I am also designing some new work for my Society 6 store.  In the meantime, here are a few doodles I'd like to share from my sketch book.

Meow!

Good kitty.
