Sunflower Eyes

Silly girl, she has sunflowers for an eye and circus animals for a necklace. 

You can hang her on your wall, if you want.

Any drawing requests? I'm like a drawing fiend these past few days!

Hope you're having a lovely Saturday :)

Big kitty, little kitty

Also, this girl is way too adorable.

Happy Sunday!

It's a lovely rainy Sunday afternoon. I've spent the better half of the morning drinking hot tea and drawing little animals. Here is a wobbly legged circus lion for you. Gosh, he needs a hairbrush.

ink & marker

This Thursday it'll be my 22nd birthday. Seems like a highly uneventful age, which is totally fine with me.
Also, I started a Facebook fanpage.
Become a fan, if you want :)

It's raining today in San Francisco, as it usually does in winter. Joe's foot is doing a lot better! He still can't walk, but it seems to be healing well.

Are you excited for winter? I am :)

Some strange drawings I have done recently

Fox Masque

Oil, india ink and acrylic ink on wood

Last finished piece for my show.
I start the installation today! Can't believe it's already almost october 16th.. getting very exicited :)

three birds in a rat's nest

Detail shot of the arm band. The picture doesn't do it justice, it's metallic gold, silver and blueeessss.

I took the piece of the easel to do the penwork. Here is my messy tabletop + a cup of tea.

Oil paint, india ink, and liquid metallic acrylic inks.

lots and lots of drawings

Some drawings I did in my moleskine while in Kauai

I should really wash my hair

This is my attempt to combine my drawing illustrative style with my painting style. Looking back, I prefer the work in progress of the feather girl to the finished piece. I like how it turned out, but i think I was a little afraid to leave it looking so 'unfinished'.

Oil and graphite on some particleboard wood. I'm pretty sure it's done, for now. But I may end up tweaking it when we get back.

Joe and I are going to Encinitas (San Diego) tomorrow to stay with my parents for a few days. He's itching to get back on that surfboard! I never really had the surfing 'itch', even though i've lived near the beach my entire life. I prefer to play around in the waves and make sand castles, though they always end up really lumpy and crooked, and I always get sunburnt. I suppose the beaches in San Francisco are still is pretty close, seeing as the city is basically only 7 x 7 miles, but the beaches are usually cloudy, cold and have dead seals.






Also, Joe just started a music/other things blog. He's got a wicked cool taste in music, definitely go check it out if you need some new tunes in your life :)

Any San Francisco kids out there? Tonight is Sketch Tuesday's at 111 Minna gallery, in SoMa. I'm probably going to go. It was a blast last time, just did some little drawings and posted them up on the board and ended up selling a few. It's a cool atmosphere, with some really great artists participating.

Alright, I'll be back monday! Though I may post while we're away. I have like three paintings I've started and can't wait to finish them!
