My latest piece Stronger Together 2012.
Just finished it this morning and entered it into a poster competition for Don't Panic which looks pretty cool. It's one of those voting comps, but lovely people will vote for me. It only takes a second!
Happy Weekend everyone ^.^

So lovely lovely Doodler's Anon are having a new comp for a coloring book they are putting together. Of course, one of my absolute FAV things are coloring books. I spent most of my childhood filling them in with my pristine crayons and paints. Really love them.
Anyways, I know that this is an old drawing, but I couldn't resist. I simplified it down, changed it to black and resized it according to their specifications. I will never get tired of this drawing. It was a massive break through for me, and boosted my confidence right back to where it should be - quietly humble, but strong.
For the purpose of the comp. I titled it Roisin's Magic Hat, which is exactly what it says on the tin. Again, thanks to Ros for being cool and letting me draw her. Thankfully I have awesome friends who don't mind me drawing them.
Fingers crossed this makes the cut. I would be so honored, happy, beside myself with glee if this got chosen. I shall keep you updated!!!

New work

Two new drawings Im working on.

This was started last night. As you can see, it is in the earliest stages of development. I was encouraged by my dear friend Jane to try to have more then one piece on the go. I have taken a break from madam underneath because she is "finished" but doesn't to me feel finished. So I have stared a bunch of drawings and Im going to juggle them, which feels nice. The others are much rougher then this one, so when they have come on a bit, Ill post them here of course!
I am very excited about ^^^^^ this though...cant wait to see where she takes me!

someday soon I shall finish this drawing and hang it on my wall.

it is getting there...slowly slowly...

Every so often I get the bug. When it bites, there's very little to be done only to give in totally to the loose plannings and processes when took up much of 4 years of my life. Once I get into it, Im quite happy, and  like the results...then wonder why I don't let myself get carried away like this more often.

Anyway, Eoghain, dear darling baby brother, often gives out for various different reasons. One of the things he barks about is clothing...the lack of originality. The price of clothes which are quality...and a bit original. Etc...So I said that I would make t-shirts for him.

That was a couple of months ago, and honestly, I have been thinking about them, and doing little sketches for them, but hadn't really sat down and done anything serious until yesterday.

Now, today, the Sketches made it onto fabric. Exciting times, I know. If the final result is worth showing, it will be here first. Fingers crossed !

I might get the repeat pattern professionally printed...might...maybe :)

This is my newest work in progress, and as of yet has not settled with a name. It keeps changing. Something pops into my head and I think, "Yes, that fits"...then it doesn't anymore, and I change my mind and want to keep that title for something else. Anyhow, this is coming along quite slowly, but Im happy thus far. Might get it finished by monday...hopefully.
Also, working of print designs for a few t-shirts Im doing for my little bro. Just sketched out one, and I must say, it looks a bit wicked. I think he will be well pleased, and might even honor me by wearing it from time to time :)
