SOME NEWISH STUFF

two styles i love working and have been trying to make my own: lineless, color shape cartoon minimalism, and subtractive ink imitations (the first one was a wee present for my sister Fiorella and her fiance, Kosuke, and the second was the need to draw something pretty)

RESURRECTION

i have finally decided to try and stop being so picky about sharing any of my sketches and works on the terrifying internets, so i this is me coming out of comfortable hobbit hole and finally learning to put things on display. the sketchblog will LIVE! (i'll try not to do too many double posts from facebook, but at least for the beginning, no guarantees...)

annnd with that, here's the first batch!






























































fox and raccoon sketches from concept and production project, grumpy looking painterly face, many many tiny tuckers, and a collage of the most recent blog illustrations for the GR-based band Simien the Whale!

lazybones



















i've neglected this poor little blog. in reality, i draw almost everyday and am just extremely picky about what i post anywhere. the multitude of my drawings are hidden away in dusty, charcoal covered sketchbooks. here's something slightly old, maybe a few weeks, but that i greatly enjoyed doing. i'll try to upload things more often.

COLD WEATHER SKETCHES



















it also makes me look even smaller.













i could not live without my heated blanket, or my tucker
















who i would love to dress in little people clothes, but people tell me it's wrong...


















year-round, but especially when it starts getting colder, i love dressing like a boy

















especially in my favorite newsie hat.

LET THE WILD RUMPUS BEGIN



















halloweeeeeen drawing! i realized that it was eerily similar to the one i did last year, so i flipped it around. sneaky photoshoping! i'm way too tired to color it right now even though i want to, so i'll work on that later. the actual size of this is about 3X4 inches cause i draw so friggin small...

anywaaays, it parallels what I and my own wolf-man are being for halloween. Axel is Max from Where the Wild Things Are, and Clouds is Coraline from Coraline (which might be my new favorite movie of the year; previously Wall-e). she even already had the blue hair! she's also showing him how to be a proper wild thing. he, as usual, is perturbed by his mate's oddness. it pleases me that Axel already had a wolf tail + claws so he cut those out of the costume!!
