Just for fun…

Sometimes I find old sketches that I want to elaborate on more, this is one of them. It ended up being a gift for one of my best-est friends in the world and I could not be happier with how it turned out – so large, red, and shiny. Although it might be a little creepy considering that the subject has no idea that his face resides in a living room in Northeast Minneapolis… I also need to give a thank you to Nick at Brand ink who really helped me out with a deadline – and the print quality is awesome.
The Hive Logo
12 Feb
A fabulous new salon is opening up in Northeast Minneapolis mid-March! It’s the Hive (I’ll include a link once it’s up and running – you need to visit these lovely ladies – they are very good at what they do!). Here’s the logo – I made it.
And also, just for fun, I wanted to show a bit of the evolution – minus sketches – I really dislike scanning…
Ingrid Michaelson

So, I had a small bit of free time and entered a contest to design an Ingrid Michaelson poster. I couldn’t resist – this girl is too cute.
Sketch of the Day – Week 1
14 Jan
A few weeks ago, I came across an adorable mini Moleskine planner (2.5″ x 4.25″) and had to have it. Mostly because of my obsession with planners, but I also thought it would be a great way to spend a little bit of time every day away from the computer and do some drawing. The small size is ideal to keep the amount of time I spend on it down and not get obsessed with the details that I normally do when allowed to zoom in 400% on a computer screen. There is no theme as for now – just random drawings, for practice and fun. Hopefully I can keep up with it. Although I don’t think the drawing will be a problem – it’s the scanning. I’ve always found scanning to be a real drag…
Time for Presents!
12 Dec
Being snowed in for the weekend gave me the opportunity to finally start getting some holiday gifts together. These dolls are for my 1-year old niece, Lola – she lives 5 hours away and I don’t get to visit her as often as I would like – I thought that she needed a visual reminder of her look-alike aunt… and boyfriend. These make me laugh – I hope they do the same for Lola.
Idea from the book, Bend the Rules with Fabric by Amy Karol. Great book with lots of fun ideas!
