I have rebuilt my whole portfolio. It has nine new images and each of them are watercolor and color pencil on wood boards. I have taken into consideration their reproduction of course. They are a size that can be scanned. When I spoke to my friend in production about my new plan he gave me an cold stare. Until I explained their size. Then we were friends again.
The new pieces are three series. Two stories of my own, A Visit from the Wild Side and My Monster Friend(current titles, they will most likely change) and one classic, Goldilocks and the Three Bears. My hopes for the pieces from my own stories is to complete one of them into a dummy book for the dummy book challenge. I haven’t yet chosen which one. So, you can vote your choice at the bottom of this post!
Here is the line art for page 7! Things have been so busy my sketchbook project has been languishing in the sidelines. I decided to warm up by drawing this page. I will add in the monotone later.
It has been a wild 5 days. On Friday I was featured on Behance Network’s front page! As of today I am on page 2 of their featured projects. I am beside myself with the recognition my Animals in Alphabet has received. Since then a few other websites have picked up my project, Plog(they actually posted a couple days before the Behance release), Abduzeedo.com, chuk*num, blogyst, and Don Serifa. I have been doing my best to keep up sending thanks you and responding to questions. Thank you everyone for sharing my work. I appreciate all of the comments. The response is so encouraging. I want to get to work making more art.
If you have popped over here and are wondering, the X is missing but, is planned to be completed in February. That is when I will have time to finish it.
This week is full of things to do! Lucien turns 3, he had a first dentist appointment, I went to the first Crafty Biz meeting of 2012, and I have been preparing like a bad woman for Arisia As I have been preserving specimens some of them have not cooperatively moved into their vessels. A couple have ended up in strange places around the house.
But that has always been the kind of house I wanted to live in so I have no problem with it! Just like There’s a Wocket In My Pocket, which has always been a favorite!
