I Do More than Just Doodle!

I do more than just doodle! So far, I have only posted my drawings and paintings. But I also have a little experience with graphic design. It is not my strongest medium but I still love it! This work is from a photograph of my beloved dog, Maisie. I used Illustrator in order to create this piece and let me tell you, it was NOT easy! I give graphic designers SOO much credit for what they do. Even though this is not one of my stronger works, I am happy to say that I am proud of what I created :)

An Oldie!

So I was looking through some old paintings, trying to find some canvas that I can recycle since I am too broke to afford new ones and I found this one! I'm not sure if I should recycle it and paint over it, or leave it... What do you think?

Color, or Black and White?

So someone previously requested that I add some color to this drawing... Well there ya go! :) I'm not sure which is more appealing but let me know what you think!

Good vs. Evil

Once again Tim Burton has given me inspiration. This painting is only a part of the entire work. I decided to focus in on this part because of the comedic atmosphere. Jack Skellington is hanging onto the cliff by a thread as his evil other half points and laughs. I'm interested in hearing who you think the woman on the right should be (or stand for)...so what do you think?

An old drawing turned into new!

When I first created this piece, it consisted of only the girl in black and white and half of the hummingbird. This drawing sat in my sketchbook for about two years! (Like most of my work) Finally, I decided to finish it! What do ya think?

Finished! :)

Finally finished! The photo does not really give it justice lol but I'm happy that I finally finished a piece.

So frustrated!

For weeks now I have been going through a serious "artist's block" and cannot come up with new work. I have tried EVERYTHING!! From looking at old artwork, googling images, and looking at other artist's work, yet I still cannot come up with any finished pieces. This drawing is as far as I have gotten. Once again I'm in need of some help! Someone suggested I draw a tattoo on her arm which is an awesome idea but I would love to hear some other ideas. PLEASE help me out! Thanks!
