sunday afternoon sketching.....

Finally got to finish off this sketch I started weeks ago.



sketch horse...........

No, it is a girl and not a horse, but I have been trying to get back on the horse when it comes to sketching as I haven't been doing it at all for some time now.  I think I lose my creativity a bit unless I keep up with it all the time...hopefully I can get back to it soon.  I do love playing with water colours....

ink, water colours

framed.................

some framed illustrations.........

les âmes soeurs..............

This is the picture I made as kind of like an engagement card, for an engagement party I will be hitting up this evening.  I'm actually a bridesmaid for it, so it will be fun times I hope! If google translate serves me correctly, then it means the soulmates...naw whimsical.

I'm going to go make myself beautiful now which will take at least a week, so good day sirs, I said good day.

Fun fun fun........................

I bought some severely fun pens today!! They are all colourful and finelinery and they are wonderful and you can use them to draw on things.  The options are endless.  Here is my first practice with them.

I think I am coming down with a cold.  How could you Mr Cold, How could you!!??  I do not wish to be sick.  I really have nothing of interest to share with you today.  It is a bit lame isn't it.  Lame lame lame, stop reading this silly blog your eyes scream at you. LOOK AWAY LOOK AWAY.

shoppetty............

I am just starting up an Etsy shop to sell all things artsy and Mr Birdy!

I'm a bit stuck on what kind's of things people would be interested in, and would love some comments from you!  I'm planning on creating and selling a lot of original illustrations, and even custom illustrations as well as prints.

Would love to know out of my illustrations the kinds of pictures and styles you like the best and would possibly be interested in!

I would muchly appreciate it!

You can check out some of the illustrations I have blogged by clicking this link.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

yada yada yada....................

Hello my beloved friends of the Land that is shaped unusually like a blog creature thing!!!

I have missed you for all of the August we have had so far! I have been having adventures aplenty, but alas blog town has never been in my reach.

Right now I am making the most delicious stroganoff known to mankind.  Some girls at work had a  Stroganoff which was basically them both cooking one and then getting judged on whose was the best.  Yes it was a strogan OFF!! GET IT!! DO YOU GET JOKES! Think about it really hard, it is a very clever joke indeed.  It made me laugh for many hours.  Anyway this stroganoff I am making is so delicious that I am a very happy lady indeed.

Just a random sketch from my new shine moleskine courtesy of the lovely Mr Stompface for my birthday.  He is nice most of the time.

Marriage times just keep getting closer and closer, I cant wrap my head around this time moving forward business!

I hope you are all as SPLENDIDLY HAPPY as I imagine a dinosaur who had just discovered a tiny singing scone wearing a beret would be!

firewire hearts unicorns forever and always.................

It was a sad day today.  The beloved Firewire was leaving my work.  On his first day at our work 2 years ago, I decided that he would love unicorns.  So I proceeded to cover his desk in pictures of them and make unicorn themed nametags, no matter how much he tried to protest it's non manliness.  

His name isn't really Firewire, that is the nickname I gave him also, that managed to catch on throughout the whole department....

Here is a picture of the envelope his leaving card was in, I decorated it hardcore unicorn styles.  It was the most magical event......

p.s. Yes that is a unicorn with laserbeam eyes.  Everyone knows that unicorns have laserbeam eyes.

have a narwhal of a time............

the obvious thing to put on a mothers day card!  a Narwhal of course!

Mr Bird is super social..........

After explaining in detail to Mr Bird the importance of social networking, Mr Bird and his opposable thumbs said YES!  Fan him on facebook (he is hot, because he is covered in feathers) or watch him tweet with his amazingly winged hand things!

scrapbook..........

just a peek at something I made for Mr Stompface.....

love & killer whales..............

I loved this message that my boyfriend wrote me so much, I decided to turn it into a picture..... Oh he makes me laugh like some kind of thing that laughs a whole lot................

The Key To My Heart.......

In honour of mine and Mr Tieheads 5 year anniversary on the weekend, here is a sketch I did a while ago.... the keys to hearts can be quite useful... very useful indeed!!

Painty 2...............

here is another....

Painty.....

I am working on some paintings to jazz up a kids room, fantasy themed. This one is loosely inspired by The Labyrinth.

Mr Bird's Adventures....

This is Mr Bird, he is a very nice bird. He lives over here.

Love tree..

I want one.. Beci Orpin is amazing.

Hoooot Hoooot!

I think owning an owl pouch would be a lot of fun.

A fox pouch would be cool too.

Beci Orpin is all kinds of cool. Her artwork makes me happy.
