OK, back to women...but don't fret...I'll do more men in the future.

I actually drew a man today...can you believe it? After all the girly stuff I've been doing I thought it was time to draw a man. And I guess I rather like how it turned out...might have to be more of a regular thing.

Help Ellery pick a Halloween costume

So I felt it was time I do another digital paper (I've been a paper doll fanatic ever since I was a girl). Meet Ellery who needs your help in choosing what to wear for Hallween. She's not entirely programmed so I'll give you the heads up as to when she's ready but I couldn't help but give you a preview now. Stay tuned.

Free People entry

Here is my entry for the Free People illustration contest. Wish me luck! I could use some fashionable goodies for my soon-to-be post-pregnant body.

drawing for Free People fashion illustration contest

I love the clothing line Free People, so when I heard that they were having a fashion illustration contest (find info here on their blog) in exchange for some Free People goodies, I was so there. Here is the initial drawing I did using Free People clothing (an outfit I would love to have). I'm going to flesh it out a bit with some color, perhaps watercolor, but not too much as I kind of like the light drawing look. What are you thoughts?

some quick drawings I did for a family member's card project.

finally here!

I had to order my copy of Princess Peepers from Amazon and can I just say that I'm sooo excited that it's finally here! I had so much fun working on this delightfully silly story by Pam Calvert and it's such a treat to finally see it in print.

new sketchbooks = a new slew of drawings!

Princess Peepers has hit the shelves!

Go out and get it now! Or call your local bookstore and ask them to order it. Author Pam Calvert is also doing a give away on her blog so you should check it out.

Hope you enjoy!

Peepers Kirkus review

Kirkus gave Princess Peepers a nice review which you can read here. I also love the new, adorable photo of the author, Pam Calvert, reading the book with this young girl, both of them in glasses. So cute!
