Bird samples - paper, glue, scissors, and one band aid

Some samples I did for a book proposal. These are TINY compared to the "normal" size, they are only 3" x 3".  Crazy.

Echo Halloween Icons and Sticker page - digital illustration

Here are some free down loadable  icons and sticker page (last one will fit on a 8.5 x 11" page).

Click on icon to download a large version, or click on the smaller ones to get a page of "stickers". Just print on sticker pages and cut them out. Good for Halloween treats, or for use in classrooms!

Cockroaches - digital and pencil

Here is a fun project I got to work on for a writer in Tokyo.  It was fun to draw cockroaches this way, and gave my husband and I some good laughs remembering our first apartment together. We had a few of these night time visitors in our place! (We can laugh now, at the time we didn't find it all that funny!)

Halloween stuff - digital illustration

I haven't posted for a while, I've been busy working on stuff that I can't post just yet!  Here is a little something I did for a client that I can show you. Check out her site at www.maplelea.com where you can buy a doll and lots of cool accessories.

Here is a tattoo I designed for my sister, a Leonard Cohen fan.

L.M. Falcone's New Website

This morning I got a great email from Lucy Falcone, a wonderful author that I've had the pleasure and privilege to work with on a few occasions.  She has just launched her new website and it looks terrific. Hoffworks Productions did the web design using my artwork from her novel covers. Peter Riddihough, the designer, did a wonderful job, and I VERY impressed! Go check it out! And read her books, they are fun for all ages! I love then, and I can't wait for my little ones to be old enough to enjoy them too!

Here is another little bird I did, in the same style as my living room birds. This one is for a friend who is having a baby girl very soon!

Creepy Tree - photo and photoshop

This is a creepy tree near our house, it never has leaves, been there for years.  Often there are families of crows ( in groups they are called murder of crows...which just makes it creepier) gathered on the branches.  I love this tree. Something tells me Alfred Hitchcock would have too :) 

Early - digital illustration
This is this weeks submission for Illustration Friday.  The word is early, I had done this image a while ago, and am re posting it. It's my backward proverb.
