IF-Impossibility

I didn't have access to a scanner so I "clicked" this one with my webcam. Although I know there apparently are scuba diving dogs, it still popped into my head when I saw the topic. Still working on my water color skills.

IF: Legendary: I am doing two things I've not done before. One - trying to color something with watercolors and Two - posting a page from my sketchbook. The IF picture is the Legendary Codboy. Don't know what my new thing is with drawing cod but I'm having fun with it. You'll see some other cod on my sketchpage. I'm also working on some exercises from the Animator's Workbook.

Pretend: A "pub night" drawing drawn on a napkin. My parents tell stories about me sitting on my training potty with my hands over my eyes, thinking that this made me invisible, when they'd come down the hallway looking for me. There are actually photographs, but I do have my pride :)

TOO MANY WHY'S. For anyone who has children, younger nieces, nephews, cousins or has ever been in the presence of a young child, this will be self-explanatory. For anyone who has not been in the presence of a young child, you may be asking "why???".

IF - HOARD
This is a super super quick sketch just to get me back on track with posting something at least once a week. This is based on something my little brother used to do. If my mom asked him to share a candybar or something he was eating, he would agree and then, while our parents weren't looking, he'd stick his tongue out and do a big, slobbery lick on whatever it was he was supposed to share and then hand it over to me. I'm sure no one else has ever encountered this kind of shinanigans (yeah, right!!)

Illustration Friday - Excess. I can't believe how long it's been since I've posted and I sure have missed it, so here it is . . . EXCESS!

IF: Visitors: This sure looked better in my sketch book but I still like the way it's turning out. I plan to make my first attempt at watercolors with this one this weekend so I'll post it "finished" later.

Well, it's been quite awhile since I've posted but here it is! This is my IF submission for "Neighbors".

Gravity for Illustration Friday

Just a quick something to get back into the habit of posting!

Buzz - I'm trying out something a little new with these old men looking thingies.

Invention, Illustration Friday

Here are two different drawings I did for invention. . . the wheel is a wonderful, wonderful thing!

Smokie the Bear!! A late entry but an entry nonetheless. I still want to try to figure out how to "finish" my drawings.

Doodling on a new notepad is always fun and that's how i came up with this week's illustration.

I've also included the entire page of doodles I did for that day.

This is me, the goob in the band, being completely and utterly smitten by one of our football players, who had no idea I existed. Then, one day, that same football player came and fixed my computer at work and the rest is history. We've been married almost 12 years and I'm still completely and utterly smitten. awwwwwww, isn't that sugary sweet?

IF-Farm The Uppity Cow

This is a post of an illustration that my 8 year old nephew and I drew last night for the IF topic Safe. We worked on it together and he also came up with the awesome symbol KR that incorporates both of our names. I love having such a wonderful drawing partner!!

A very quick doodle to get me back in the habit of posting every week. I would very much like to move this to "real" paper and add some detail because I really like the idea.

Skyline. . . interesting topic. My ideas always seem wonderful in my head and when i try to get them on paper, they never seem finished. I'll have to keep working at it!

Well, here's Lili again. Here's our little sticky girl with her rocket pop, sweet tea, pepsi and other sugary, gooey delights.
