Once In a Blue Moon

I just love the way this illustration turned out. I was imagining a group of friends lazily flying in hot air balloon up into the sky and traveling through the universe on an adventure. Not knowing what they would encounter they were in awe of the activity that was going on that most earthly beings never see or can even imagine.This trip will be something they will always remember and will cherish the memories.

Homemade Christmas Gifts

 

These are some drink coasters I made as Christmas gifts. I drew them on stone tiles with prismacolor pencils and ink, then sprayed them with a clear satin acrylic sealer. The colors turned out very vibrant...a funky spot for your coffee or beverage of choice!!

"Perfect Harmony"

This is a large beach rock that I decorated using prismacolor pencils. The beach rocks work the best for colored pencils because they are so smooth from the many years of the waves washing over them. I wanted to depict how everything in the universe is interconnected and how one act can affect everything else...the perfect world would be where everything lives in perfect harmony. If you look closely you may be able to find the "alien" hidden in this piece...as you may know I have a thing for them.

This rock is on display at the Rahr-West Art Museum

now until Sept.26 2010

"ONE UNIVERSE, ONE WISH"

This is a piece I did to inspire World Peace. I believe we should teach our children how to understand each other and accept someone as they are. We should explore the world around us and maybe make a new friend. It only makes the world more interesting when people are different and our differences should not seperate us...but bring us together in harmony and understanding. So wish upon a star and pray that one day there will be world peace...teach the children acceptance and tolerance.

"Aliens to the rescue"

This is an alien themed piece I did with prismacolor pencils and ink. I like using aliens and other weird themes in my art.
