Description last one from the calendar!

edit: whoops totally upped the wrong drawing...


just a simple summery drawing.

dandelions are the prettiest weeds ... when they've turned into seeds.

i'm a poet and i didn't know it!


pencil, colored pencil, old paper.

and i love this! there's a lot of love in the air.

i like your style - would love to read a book illustrated in this manner one day. do you do zines or anything? (i don't really need a calendar from 2008, so.)

i've never done a zine. i've tried, and i have a friend who's always wanting to do one with me, but i don't have the motivation :T one of these days!

Do it! You could always just use some old drawings you've already done, and just splice in some prose and whatnot, that's what I do.

I love the expression on her face suggesting that she's lost in thought.

CAT STEVENS! OMG! That is the style of illustration you remind me of! Like 'Teaser and the Firecat' and works by him. Whimsical, sad, poignant, funny and phantasmagorical type of dream-like images got me through my childhood and BAM there YOU are in the 21st century.

Except you do it better. ^__^

I can't believe how clean these look. Do you sketch them out at all? It looks like you just do your thing without ever erasing.

haha yeah, i sketch them out. then i use my light box to trace them. it's almost like cheating!
