Vintage Resource

I am just having too much fun playing with the images posted at The Vintage Moth. A blog where you can find old images, and go creatively nuts making art for you home, or perhaps a beautiful card for someone you love.
I would like my collage transferred to a china mug or a vase.

Elephants

Elephants are on my mind these days, so I had to do a drawing. I used a picture of some colored masking tape as my palette. The text reads: Three elephants came marching ... along the spiders fine web. From a childrens song.

Be Yourself

I was inspired by this quote on Spagats blog, and I did my own interpretation of it in Photoshop.

– Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.

Illustina

Illustina is a norwegian illustrator. I like her naïve style. I am very interested in portraits, so I am showing two of hers here. Wonderful!

Watercolor delight!

Watercolor and drawing is fun. Check out illustrator Toril Bækmark's work! Beautiful and elegant, with wonderful colors.

Lovely drawings & watercolor from Sweden

Swedish Nina Johansson teaches art and computer graphics. She post her drawings on her blog. And on her website you can even browse her entire sketchbooks. She carries with her wherever she goes, and once they are full of drawings and watercolor, she publishes them for you to enjoy!

Jill Bliss

Gorgeous, floral patterns and drawings. These designs and notebooks are so fresh and the details are beautiful. Sweet spring!

Illustrator John Hendrix

I was in the virtual gallery at www.iamny.org, where I read John Hendrix' notes from their conference. His notebook is a true inspiration. Hendrix seems so focused in his expression and style.
