The gift of music...

Who doesn't like receiving 'the gift of music'? I dubbed a CD for my co-worker today and decided to make it a bit more formal by creating packaging that goes right along with the self titled album "Go Sailor". I love these blank white CDs, perfect for illustrating. The case/bag is made from cotton fabric, complete with metal eyelets for string closure. Leia is sure to enjoy this one...

So, Comic Con was fun...

Oh sweet Comic Con... how I love thee. Thanks to Jeff, I was able to check out the madness and score some free schwag... I know you are jealous of my green lantern ring. 

                   

Vintage things that inspire...

On an outing to the Long Beach Antique Market yesterday, I found some unique treasures. Vintage hats and trims will surely inspire a new dress or two. I also found an old View-Master, complete w/photo slides of Costal California towns in the 1960's... by far the best $3 dollars I have ever spent.

Summertime...

I recently made these bright hair accessories for Summer! Silk flowers wired to hair clips, couldn't be easier.

Don't eat the Octopus...

Let me start by saying that I don't paint very often... I was inspired to do this piece in hopes of entering it into an 'underwater theme' art show at the 'Echo Curio' in L.A. last month. Turns out 3 days was not enough time to complete it.
