Just a little sneak peek at a personal project I'm working on :)

Portraits

Here are a couple portraits I finished recently.  Sweet little boys :)

Cake Topper Commission

Jane and Justin asked me to do a portrait of them to use as a wedding topper.  Such a cute idea!  It has the gears rolling in my head now for sure...

I started by designing an illustration with some simple trees in the background:

Then I sent it to them in two separate file so that the couple and the trees could be cut out separately and put on the cake.  

  I didn't make the cake or physically make the topper, but I did take the photo as I was also their photographer :)

What do you think, should I start marketing cake toppers?

Jade Forest

So I started this a year ago.  Time flies when you don't sleep?  Anyway, here it is!  Feels good to have it finished, I like it a lot.

Winter Portrait

This was an art trade with my lovely friend Amanda.  She made my girls the coolest little dragon toy :)  And apparently her boyfriend is impervious to cold!

Raspberries and Vinegar Cover

Here's the front cover for the upcoming novel Raspberries and Vinegar by Valerie Comer.  It's been released in August from Choose Now Publishing.  It's my first book cover and I'm very happy/excited about it :)

I'll post about the design process later this week!

To Write a Story

An illustration of my mom and her kitties for the header image of her new blog To Write a Story.

Happy Easter!
