Illustration commission for wedding gift

I was asked to do a commission of a couple for someone to give to them as a wedding gift. After seeing a few photos of the couple together, I did some roughs. Below is the rough that worked best, and the final colour is at the bottom. Rough is in Colerase blue pencil; colourContinue reading “Illustration commission for wedding gift”

Poussey & Taystee

Life and work has been busy, so I haven’t been able to do many OITNB sketches lately – but watching season 3 now has made me want to do the rest of the cast! Up next: Poussey & Taystee with their fun antics 🙂 I did this one digitally. Stay tuned for more of theContinue reading “Poussey & Taystee”

“Christmas in Connecticut” sketch

This past Christmas, things did not go as planned. [Such is life!] However, I managed one sketch earlier on in December, based on a classic Christmas film “Christmas in Connecticut” [1945]. Next year I hope to do a lot more based on my fav holiday films! 🙂

The night I saw Carol Burnett – in person!

  Like many, many people, I grew up watching “The Carol Burnett Show”. My parents always had always loved those comedy shows, and while I may not have understood some [most] of the sketches they did, I could not help but love this wacky, loud, fun-loving female host who would not hesitate to make herself lookContinue reading “The night I saw Carol Burnett – in person!”
