Journal Pages

I've been trying to really hard to draw in my journal everyday even if I don't feel up to it. I think doing something is better than doing nothing. It is hard though being the perfectionist that I am, so I'm trying hard to lose those control issues and just draw.

Ode to Yuko Murata 'Not My Friend's Rabbit'

'Not my friend's rabbit' is an appropriation of Yuko Murata's 'My Friend's Rabbit' 2004.
I couldn't resist creating an adorable picture of a rabbit, it's like Easter came early. So freakin cute! I've included an image of the original work below and just click on the post title to see more of Yuko Murata's amazing work.

Dreams

I had this dream that I was standing in this department store in front of a display case which had bottles of perfume in it. The display case was one of those 'when opened alarm will sound' types and I was agonising about if I should open it and get out the bottle of perfume I wanted. (Even in my dreams I'm worried I'll make the wrong decision.) I eventually decided to open the case but when I did the perfume had freakishly vanished and all that was left was some crappy knockoff. I guess like in life if you wait too long for something you really want you might not get it at all or you might be left with some cheap imitation of what you thought you wanted.

Powerless

Self portrait I did last night.
I showed my husband he said 'it was good but I made myself look a bit chubby in the face'.
Bless him.

Resolutions

Was thinking of the new year and what 2011 will bring.

Hope, opportunities, broken promises???

We will see.

Life Drawing

Went to Dr Sketchys Caberet Life-Drawing in Byron last night, so much fun! The models were absolutely wonderful, so talented. These are just some rough sketches but I plan on do some more 'serious' works based on these. I got plenty of inspiration from last night, which is just what the doctor ordered. Can't wait for Dr Stetchy next month and next time I plan on getting hubby to drive me because as much fun as it was a few cocktails could only add greatness to the mix. Bottoms Up!

Bye Bye Birdy

Mr Fox

Been awhile between posts...

Started drawing more animal pics, this is Mr Fox.

I Said Ladies

Watching Miami Ink last night, there was this awesome tatt of a pin up girl, it got me all inspired. This is not my usual style, my works are usually more agressive and marks more harsh. This is not to say that this isn't very pretty all the same.

If you Leave

Another girl...

A goat, a rabbit and some birds

These are some designs I've printed onto calico bags. The 'follow the rabbit' design is my favourite.
