Birthday

I was working on this the first week of August for Birthday and hurt my back,  so I am posting it late.  It's kind of sad that I came up with the prompts and end up posting mine late,  oh well.   Muscle relaxers relax me a little too much, my brain too.  I couldn't "do" anything.  Yuck, I hate it when I hurt myself !

Lost at sea

I did this quite a while ago...It was just a random illo for my portfolio. I think someday I would like to make a picture book with these people as characters in it.

My book's trailer

My new book is due for release on Saturday. The publisher had a trailer made.

For your viewing pleasure: Smoky and the Feast of Mabon

Please help spread the word. :D

Still working on goaty pirates.

Fishing with the Jellies


You won't find these in a real ocean. Jellyfish. How
can something so beautiful be so deadly?

Oceans

I love oceans - which is partly why I live on an island.  This is a picture I've been wanting to make for a while.  Months ago I saw a pelican circling just off shore and thought it would make a nice story - a girl and her pelican companion having adventures.  Where will they go?

Happy Birthday


Happy Birthday Watercolor Wednesday!!!
This illustrated was inspired by one of my favorite illustrators, Mary Blair.
I love her work. She has such a great influence on my work.
I really enjoy her color palette and subjects matter.
Happy Birthday WAWE and many more!!!

Happy Birthday!



I joined Watercolor Wednesday about 20 months ago, not too long after it was formed. I love seeing all the new contributors and the old. What a great place to play together. Thanks Linda Kay, for creating this, and Happy Birthday!

Family Stuff

I am so excited to be apart of Watercolor Wednesdays! Between traveling and my summer internship, I have been swamped with work, but here is a piece I did for family Stuff (and my first official post). I can always tell who's home by the shoes that are left near the front door :)
