The Waiting Room of the Black Lodge... Photographies Redo

So for class we critiqued our images and were sent off with the assignment to use what was said to improve our photographs. Here are my redos. The Striped image is a redo of an image I did not post last week, so it's new to you! The ISO on these were a bit high because we had so little light to work with, so there's some noise in the stripe photos especially. I would kill for a legit studio setup instead of the clip lamps and 60watt daylight bulbs we were using.

Sketch Tuesday-ish: 4-21-09

This is week number 9 in the New Sketch Tuesday project. And I'm a bit late considering it's now Wednesday morning. Better late than never though, right? This sketch is... well I don't know. Just an image that popped into my head.

Upload your sketches to your blog, Flickr, or wherever you post your work online. Any Etsy illustrators who use Flickr I would encourage to tag & add their sketches to the Etsy Illustration Flickr pool!

If you're on Etsy, check out the New Sketch Tuesday thread for today and add a link to your sketch.

Special Edition Striped Nightmare Snatcher!

Here is the newest Special Edition Nightmare Snatcher® , the Hugmitten style with special black and white striped fur! Woohoo! Okay, so he came out a month ago, but I still think it bears mentioning. Available for purchase at my Etsy shop! As someone who prefers to work in pen & ink and scratch board, I'm partial to black and white. The black and white stripes also make me think of Tim Burton. Most of his movies seem to have creatures and costumes that have black and white stripes as seen below. From left to right all sporting their stripes: 'Vincent', Beetlejuice', Miss Spider from 'James and the Giant Peach', Katrina from 'Sleepy Hollow', and Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett from 'Sweeney Todd'.

Sad Songs and Sweet Dreams

Here's a detail image of an illustration I'm working on. Not a finished illustration yet, the anatomy and pen work need some tweaking, need to make the grass cross over her legs etc. Made with pen & ink on scratchboard.

It's for a zine my father and I are putting together of his poetry with illustrations by me of course. If you're interested in knowing when it's coming out, join my Mailing List!
