Ribbons

various ballpoint pens.

Scribbled my way through some insomnia during the dark hours of the morning with a black pen. Came back and added the rest of the color & background later in the day while watching poorly made television movies. In all honesty, not too much brain activity went into this.

Choose your own adventure. What happens next? Minimum 100 words.

Entangled

blue BiC pen.

...I don't know. I don't have an explanation, really.

My pen ran out of ink before I finished.

Tentacle Spectacular

blue BiC round stic medium tip.

Did this to waste time. I can't sleep.

Anyway, I miss the Dior Boys of seasons past too. I do love a good planky boy here and there. (Nicked the pose from the new SS07 DH campaign.) Thought I'd do a pseudo-throwback to SS03 ...but underwater with a giant octopus.

Continuing the underwater theme, because I've recently been kinda fascinated by things with scales or tentacles. So, between the Krakens, Giant Cephalopods, Leviathans, Charybdis, and all that, I doubt I'll ever run out of fun sea monsters to entertain me. Mmm... yay.

Submerge

graphite.

I watched Discovery specials on squid and jellyfish the other day. Très intéressant.

Favorites from Milan FW07: Alessandro Dell'Acqua, Costume National, Moschino, & Burberry. (men.style.com) Thoughts?

Harvest Moon

acrylic on canvas board.

I cropped out the ugly part.

A Krill Lick

both (mostly) matte acrylic on 8x10 canvas boards.

See? I'm still alive. And instead of doing something useful, I painted these.

Come on, the peacock is sort of guy quota, right? It is a boy because it has a pretty tail.

The look in the second one is a little bit Salvatore Ferragamo SS07, but not really. ...moreso the girl than the giant snake with cow horns.

It's That Time of Year

Felt pen + Photoshop.

2006 Holiday CD cover art. Comment or e-mail me for tracklistings.

Merry Christmas (or Chrismahanukkwanzika, should you so prefer), and I wish you the best for this upcoming New Year.

In other news, I have noticed that I have fallen dreadfully behind on guy quota and have made a note to be better about it henceforth.

XOXO! Love.

No Chair

graphite.

sit.

Hey guys, Man cardigans!!! You have no excuse to not be stylish. Ha!

Llamaface!

graphite.

I like llamas.

Cosmic

felt tip pen, rollerball ink pen, graphite.

The Dreamweaver Demo today in class was just so fascinating.

Twinkles

Graphite, Photoshop.

Yeah.

It's been kind of crazy lately. Did some things I shouldn't have. Just being a stupid girl, I suppose.

Squishy Squishy Squishy

Graphite, Photoshop.

It's a little sloppy, but Forest, this one's for you. It seemed like it would be fun to draw. (Velvet minidress by Jovovich-Hawk)

I don't like commenting on my own posts, even if replying to previous comments.

In order to get married, I'd need a man.

Sassy

graphite

Finally got my scanner. It's pretty sweet.

Thanks to Jenny and Ashley for being my elbow models. (I left that stumpy wrist for you, Jenny.)

Wedding things this weekend. Very exciting.

Stalemate

Photoshop.

This one is so emo that it hurts. Disgusting, isn't it?

Hideous

Photoshop.

I now unleash this ugly on each and every one of you. Someday, I hope you may find it in your heart to forgive me.

Due to my nifty dry throat, tea has become my new best friend. Well, tea and slushies.

Fields of Gold

prismacoloredpencils.

I am very blatantly wasting time.

Homework is the suck. I blame you, Jan Tschichold.

Summer Scribbles

Illustrator.

I saw Little Miss Sunshine on Friday. I highly recommend it.

Nothing else to say really. Nothing else I feel like sharing, anyway.

Textures

Corel Painter Essentials.

No scanner. No pencil sketches for you until I get a hold of one. Just speedy tablet sketches. Paint effects are fun.

He Has No Butt

Col-Erase.

It's true. Sad, but true.

I'm totally sketchdumping. Hope no one minds too much.
