Cornucopia

I'm really happy with this cornucopia drawing I did for my October e-mail. I love drawing vegetables and I did the coloring for this with colored pencil first, then finished with some airbrushing in photoshop. I love the textured and bright effect I got from this and will probably use it again even though coloring that much with pencils made my hand cramp up!

Brunhila

I did a drawing of my WOW character Brunhila just for fun and it turned out so cute I wanted to share it! This was sketched out in pencil then I used color pencil to finish it.

Mamapalooza Flyer

I put together this flyer for the Mamapalooza back-to-school event. I love the font I used for "Mamapalooza". It's so fun and funky. I'm also playing at this event at 1:00, so if you live in central Ohio, you should come see me! Lots of talented moms are involved in this event sponsored by Advanced Wellness Center and WCBE . We'll have music, food, belly dancers and mama-made stuff, and we'll be giving away some excellent door prizes :)

Halloween Hand Illustration

I created this drawing from a sketch I did in a coffee shop. I wanted to do a fun halloween montage and include some different elements but tie them together somehow. I liked this sketch because all the scary things were being scared by something themselves - namely the zombie hand popping out of the grave.

First I did a pen drawing of the illustration then on my light table I did a painting of the elements with watercolor. I scanned both sheets then put them together to create the final piece.

The Right Mama

I created a rockin' mama illustration for the Mamapalooza poster, but it turned out to be a little too rockin' considering most of our line-up is acoustic singer/songwriters (like myself). So, I toned it down a little, changed the guitar and the color scheme to go with the mamapalooza colors.

Mamapalooza

I am loving working on the graphics for the next Mamapalooza - here is the logo I've created for Mamapalooza Columbus. The Back-To-School event will be on Saturday, Sept. 25th from noon - 5pm at Whole Kids Pediatrics and Yoga in Columbus. The event will feature music by mamas (including me!) and lots of mama vendors and presenters. Come on out and support some moms who rock!

Shiah's Tree

Easily one of the prettiest t-shirts I have ever painted. I had a picture of this little girl and her tree in my "want to draw or paint" file for over a year and just kept putting off doing it. I finally got the ultimate motivation in that I was dropping off a t-shirt for her mom (a gift from another mom) and I wanted to be able to drop off a shirt for this girl at the same time. I knew it had turned out really nice, but the best part was the look on Shiah's face when she saw it and said "It's my tree!!!" Totally made my day :)
