Cow Animal Loonie

The theme for this month's Animal_Collective is cow.  Here is what I came up with.

Nothing like a little spring shower.  Right?  Well, err...not exactly the type of shower we were expecting.  

Until next time, it's time for me to get back at the drawing board.  

Time to Fly

Here is the lastest Animaloon Collective, I did.  It's guinea pig time for this crazy and fun challenge.

This illustration was created digitally.  Enjoy!

Until next time, it's time for me to get back at the drawing board.

Meet Mabel

So I came up with a new older character I would like to develop so without fiurther ado please meet Mabel.....

And her furry friend is Coconut.

Until next time, it's time for me to get back at the drawing board.  

Time for Postcards

An earlier post I did, I talked about how I joined the 4 Out The Door Challenge.  Where 4 times out of the year I would be sending illustrator postcards out to book publishers/agents.

Well, my first deadline came on February 1st, and I am please to say I met the deadline.  Here is what I came up with for the first quarter mailing.

And the back looks like this.

Well, again like my very first post on illustrator postcards which you can read here.  I made another mistake.  The orientation is wrong on the back.  Uggh.....  But oh well, I don't do these enough so it's easy for me to make mistakes.    Next quarter I will get them right (fingers crossed). 

Until next time, it's time for me to get back at the drawing board.

January's Animaloon Collective

This month's Animaloon_Collective finds us creating a magical, fluffy, UNICORN.

I was so happy to see this mystical creature was the theme.  I can't help but to think about Despicable Me when it comes to unicorns.  I love it when Agnes shouts, "He's so FLUFFY!"

Well, here is what I came up with.

I hope you enjoyed this illustration.

Until next time, it's time for me to get back at the drawing board.

4 Out The Door

I am excited about the new illustrator challenge I just entered called, "4 Out the Door."  It is sponsored by the SCBWI Michigan Chapter.

Basically, the main objective is to get four illustrator postcards out the door to editors and art directors.  Postcards are a way for illustrators to showcase their work with the hopes of catching editor or an art director's attention.  

The deadlines are: February 1st, April 1st, July 1st and November 1st.

With the February deadline looming around the corner it's time for me to get back at the drawing board.

This week's Animal Alphabets is E for Edward Scissorhands.

It was done in Adobe Sketchbook Pro.

I hope you enjoyed this illustration.

Colour Collective

Yet again, I am in another Twitter weekly illustration challenge-Colour_Collective.  Each week they give you a color, you can use any theme as long as you have the color of the week within your illustration.

One of the colors was Sugar Plum and this is what I had done.

The illustration was done digitally in Adobe SketchBook Pro.  

 Until next time, it's time for me to get back at the drawing board.
