Old and New

Look at this: A ridiculously beautiful nook off a country road in Napa, where people have trees hanging from swings, and fall colors extending out their back window. I had a great time seeing all the magical places and beautiful colors.
Decided to take this painting back with me. I forgot how much I liked it. Maybe it'll go into my portrait show.
The mural I did in my friend's studio. Had a lot of fun and kind of got carried away. Painting can be obsessive!

Drawing, no big deal

Did some more drawings... thought I'd share. Here they are up at the Drawing Board Gallery in Yorba Linda, CA.

P.S. I went to the SCBWI Illustrator's Day last Saturday and had my mind blown! I am always so inspired when I'm immersed into an environment of illustrators and publishers. It makes me what to work harder! More info on that and the great people I met later.... happy day!

Progress bro

Making progress! Finally painted with Mellissa some more, and worked on the portrait of Sean--- it's much better after this round. I'm becoming quite happy with it.

I love painting. You never know how it's going to turn out. Paint is so unpredictable, I think. That's why I love it.

Working on getting things ready for a boutique faire and an art walk. It'll be a BUSY week, but very worth it. Sometimes I'm baffled at how much I'm doing with my art now a days. I'm so thankful things are working out. Progress!!
