Hey!  Here I am!  Look, over here!

Monster number 9 looks suspiciously like a woman I work with, only with horns.  What's up with that?

29 Faces Challenge - Day 23

February 23 was Eggo's birthday, and while this isn't a portrait of Eggo, it is a portrait of a smallish dog, kinda like Eggo but not really.

29 Faces Challenge - Day 21: Pidgey

I'm doubling up today's face with a project for another art group I belong to - the theme for that was just "Birds."

In case anyone's interested, I used Genesis heat set oils for Pidgey's little portrait.

29 Faces Challenge - Day 20 + Nibblefest!

I'm being lazy today and doubling up my 29 faces with my Nibblefest entry for this month.  Nibblefest's theme is "Moonlight":

"Reading by Moonlight"

Don’t you just hate when you’re sitting in your yard trying to read a really interesting story, and the stupid moon is reading over your shoulder?  It’s even worse when he starts making ridiculous comments and laughing at scenes that aren’t even funny.  

I so hate that!

29 Faces Challenge - Day 19

I'll be honest, I don't even know what this is.

I'm not completely satisfied with this little guy, so he's still a WIP.  But I had to post something for tonight so this is it!

29 Faces Challenge - Day 17

Pretty Kitty


Face 17
Graphite on Bristol
2.5 x 3.5


Sorry  I don't have much of anything to say about this one - she reminds me a little of someone I knew, but I can't pinpoint who.  That bothers me a little but I'll try to get over it.

I'm trying out the "new" posting format here, I'm not seeing the blue underline anymore (thank goodness!).

29 Faces Challenge - day 15

Another pastel!

This worried little deer is a WIP. I got caught up in doing other stuff tonight and all of a sudden it was 11:45 and I hadn't posted my face for today, so I had to go with it as is. I certainly hope I can find the time to finish up all these WIPs I've been posting.


This is another ACEO, pastel on Stonehenge.
