sketches
Buy art for Christmas!
Whew, this year is gonna be a liiiiiittle different for Christmas shopping, amiright?? Or maybe you already did all your shopping online, so no change for you.
Either way, it’s my artist duty to remind you that art makes a nice gift! I have a bunch of my original illustrations and poster designs up for sale on my Etsy shop. I sign every print, and include a handwritten note with every purchase as well. Because I love seeing written notes on paper – it’s so rare these days!
I just added this sunflower illustration I did recently, but if you are looking for Christmas-related prints, I also added my “A Christmas Story” character designs as well.
My biggest seller so far is my minimalist poster design for the film “Carol” (2015). As far as LGBTQ films with amazing acting go – it’s pretty high on the list!
My “Stranger Things” sketch series
One of the best shows Netflix has put out – especially if you are a child of the 80s – has been “Stranger Things”! I just HAD to draw these guys!
Can’t wait for season 2!! Barb….are you out there….????!!
Downton Abbey sketches – Part 1
WHO doesn’t LOVE “Downton Abbey“??? Oh my word we discovered it after season 1 had aired in the UK, and once we got our hands on it over here in Canada, we fell in love with the characters immediately.
We just finished watching season 4, and I decided to do something that is long overdue – draw the characters! So far I have done three of the cast members – see below. Also scroll to the bottom to see who tweeted at me after my first sketch!
Carson [Jim Carter]
Mrs. Patmore [Lesley Nicol]
The Dowager Countess [played of course by Dame Maggie Smith]
The actress, Lesley Nicol, who plays Mrs. Patmore on “Downton” tweeted at me after I released the first sketch – as a HUGE fan of the show, that was a SUPER exciting moment!
Robert (Hugh Bonneville) & Cora Crawley (Elizabeth McGovern)
Moseley – just gotta love him! (Kevin Doyle)
Now to tackle the rest of the cast… stay tuned!
