Paper Doll Collage Kittens Need Good Home

These are some of the Paper doll, collage, mixed media kittens I have made. They are all originals, and need good loving homes ;) They would make good paper dolls, wall decorations, or cards. Please recommend them to anyone who loves kitties.

Re-opening etsy shop with kittens and paper dolls

I spent all of Friday scanning and tweeking every completed book I have drawn. I have to admit that I love making these books; but etsy doesn't seem like the place for them. I intend to start sending tear-sheets to children's book publishers this next week. When I look at Kitty Crayons and Pusheens, I think to myself how much I have neglected sharing my art these last three years since graduation... I am glad to have a nice website and gallery, I also realize I want to blog more. Speaking of etsy, there are two books I am thinking of selling on there as printable pdf files. One is a "How to make a Dress" coloring book. The other is a Paper doll book with 40 outfits. Please enjoy these samples.

I dislike tumblr but I LOVE the PUSHEEN

I joined tumblr but I don't like it... I had trouble uploading my photos; I couldn't get my posted links to work on my tumblr blog even though I did it through their system (add custom link option, etc); I had trouble posting/sharing content from other sites that didn't have an automatic "share on tumblr" button. Therefore, I don't think I will use it that much since I love this blog and since I already have a twitter account for sharing (and EVERY site has a "share on twitter" button!). GRRRRRRR I also logged back into my livejournal account and found it ti be even more confusing to navigate....sigh*

Aways , I have recently fallen in love with a webcomic cat called Pusheen. Pusheen is sooooo cute and plump, and I LOVE the animated gifs that the artist, Claire, draws, and the cartoons are cute too, love her &Andrew's sense of humor.
Please look at this link http://everyday-cute.tumblr.com/ and see her Tumblr blog and old comics page links- both are soooooooooooo awesome. You can even see a shop link and buy pusheen jewelry, tees, and plush.

I am uploading the free wallpaper background pic as an example of her cuteness above..
Epic Cuteness!

last sketchbook and thoughts of today

Well my last sketchbook was done and sent off a few days ago now. It was with the theme " And Suddenly..." As I had little time I went ahead and did the last half of the book in colage form. with much use of glue and scissors :)


As for my thoughts. "One should not have to try to hard to chase after one's friends, true friends meet you and interact, you are not ignored by them or tolerated by them but enjoyed. One must abide by this and without looking back."

Inspiration and horses

Well, I stumbled across the world of breyer horses on Youtube of all places. I used to play with model horses as a child and it seems that many young girls nowadays like them as well....only these kids have the notion to make little films of their storylines and such. Cute. Alas I don't have money to buy breyer horses, however that was not gonna stop me- I felt inspired- and I got out the scissors, prismacolors and cardstock and made roughly 20 horses. Here we see the mares and foals huddled together as the stallions fight.... needs a background I know but I only meant to show off my horse making skills :)

Merry Christmas! kitten card

Mail me art update

Well my bunny for November got there ok here is the link
and I made an envelope put of patterned paper and drew on it for this December one :)

news and another sketchbook

Anyways I got a email from Climate Gallery saying the opening for "der Zeit of Drawing" went well. I am gonna try to see if my cousins up in NY can visit the gallery and see my work..kind of check everything out for me.....In other art news I finished my 3rd sketchbook for the sketchbook project "Past Present and Future"and will send it tomorrow. I also have to go to Ft.Worth to see the 9x12 show......

November Mail Me Art

This little guy is on his way to England for the "Mail Me Art" Project for November. I hope he will have a good trip :)

Yeah! Mail me art made it safely -October

I Finally got to see that my October submission got to the UK alright. It is inspiring and I will be making another package to hopefully ship out this weekend :)
See me in the October Gallery of the Project http://mailmeart.com/going-postal/gallery/mail-me-art-two/?album=1&gallery=11
hint: mine is right in the middle of the second to last row.

9x12 show

These then are the 3 pieces I sent for the 9x12 Exhibition at the Fort Worth Community Art Center.
"Little Circus Kitten 2"
"A cowgirl and her Kitten"
and "Mandy"

All of these will be for sale at the Exhibition :)
they are 9x12" and done in prismacolor. The colors are richer than on the monitor and I did cover each with a coat of glossy acrylic spray after I scanned them in. It really gives a nice shine and enrichens the colors up.

Scketchbook Project scetchbooks 1 and 2

These are some scans from two of the illustrated sketchbooks that I am doing for Art House Coops "Sketchbook Project" for their Brooklyn International Art Library, set to open in 2010.

The first one is "It's not easy being green" in which a kitten has developed a passion for "painting" , much to the dismay of her human who just wants her to stay clean! , hilarity ensues.
Note: I will be adding some color to this one, but I wanted to scan the drawings in first just in case.















The theme of this bottom one is "The Elephant in the Room", I explored the theme of elephants and did finally get a mini-story involving a circus elephant and a acrobat girl .

My Maya Bunny

Kawaii, no? Look at my first maya project. I did a journal, lollypop and a plush bunny. Here are some jpegs of it. I have not learned animation yet, just rendering and texturing but it is a lot. A very big program. I really like the cute bunny, its my favorite :)

Drawings for the Drawing Show

Ok so here are some of the drawings I have been working on to consider fo the drawing show @climate gallery ....... You have no idea how hard these were to upload, I scanned them in emailed them to myself then opened the email and tryed to upload but my files had gotten "corrupted" but I could still upload them on flickr so I had to upload them to flickr then download them from flickr and then I could get them off my desktop, finally! did I metion I love flickr now? Anyways i will probably have to clean them up and maybe ink them or something......... but I actually really like leaving my drawings in black and white.

some pics from the newest few zines I've made.....they always amaze me after I'm done. i realized I love browsing flickr photos some are so dream-like...I like artwork to but you have to sift more to find the good ones. i like nice perfumes and my bangs and eyeliner.... ;)

kitten birthday

Found this photo, a little girl gave this to her grandma for mothers day, a box with four animals drawings in it . Such a cute idea huh? ^^
