Miss Cravat

Watercolor on Bristol, pastel and metallic pen for highlights! Could be another interesting book!

The Birch Forest Witch

While creating this image, I kept thinking of folklore and fairy tales and thought this could be a really great children's book- therefore I added the title to the image. It was done in a series of steps, both running ladies were painted in different mediums and techniques as well as the "witch" on the right. The Birch trees were painted leather on a watercolor background and everything was composed in Photoshop. Was quite fun and I can imagine the image coming to life!

Decorative Profile

This is actually a thumbnail from a composition w/ faces done in watercolor and pencil as I was talking on the phone - well the color was added after, ha ha!

Red Hat


A combination of many techniques - watercolor and colored pencil on bristol, watercolor on cut leather for the hat, Photoshop for the outline and composition, and plain old No. 2 pencil on the face!

Sadness


Watercolor wash mixed w/ pencil on bristol - playing with variations of pigment and directing the flow of water!
