Fairy on a lily pad (complete)

Fairy on a lily pad (in progress)

Still rough drafting this little babe. I think I am going test my new water color pencils out on her wings...

New project (rough draft)

A few years ago, my friend Vanessa showed me an interesting picture someone sketched up of a fairy sitting on a lily pad with nothing but a pair of chopsticks. It's one of my favorites I thought it was really sexy so I decided to draw up my own version. I have the original on my old computer so once I can get into that I will have to post it for you to see. I wish I knew the name of the artist.

I can't think of a better model for this piece than Vanessa, herself. She is so naturally pretty with these big beautiful high cheek bones, petite frame and thick long hair, no makeup necessary with her. We don't speak much anymore but she was a huge part of my early years and responsible for a great deal of who I am today. I'm dedicating this one to you, mama fairy.*

Throwback Thursday

Sketch from 2010

Ordinary girl by day...

 Bad ass fairy by night.

I thought this was pretty funny. So I drew the picture below in 2000 and I completely forgot about it and just happened to draw the same picture (above) 10 years later. Look at the dragonfly he is even the same! It's really fun to watch the progress of a practice over the years.

Down

This is the portion of my blog where things start to get a little saucy...

Kiss

You see, when I tell you I will put any idea given to me on paper, I mean any idea. After my roommate saw "Down" she decided she wanted a piece of the action. To her request, Kiss was born...

 Unfortunately, when I showed her the end result she changed her mind and wanted something a little more PG to hang on her wall. It's okay! It's become one of my best sellers.

 Personally, I love it & I don't know about you ladies, but I can definitely relate to her affectionate gesture. I just can't help myself I guess...with the right man, who can resist?

Morale of the story: be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it...

Merry Christmas

Who is to say I am not a festive person? I get just as much in the spirit of the holidays as the next...in my own way. So I would like to present my gift of Christmas 2012 to you.

I am a booty kind of girl, so I prefer this angle. Let's just say it wasn't my most planned out piece. But for those motorboatin' sons of bitches out there, I imagine this one is your cup of tea.
