Sleep Under the Petals
Pencil and Photoshop

I’ve been squeezing in more time personal art between my graphic design work!

I finished the line art for this piece a few months ago, and then it sat patiently waiting until I had a mental breakthrough on how I wanted to color it. Photoshop won over ink or watercolor, I felt it needed strong, graphic color that I’m better at pulling off digitally than with traditional media.

I had to include a detail shot of her face, because her freckles get lost in the full image.

Prints, etc. are available from my Society6 shop!

Vector Art Practice: Flower Icons

I’ve been making a real effort to improve my vector art skills lately. While I was able to learn Photoshop by just using it, I’d never quite found my comfort zone with Illustrator. Time to change that! I’ve been enrolling in online classes through Skillshare, focusing on courses that involve using Illustrator. I just completed my project for Basic Geometric Shapes: Illustrate a Series of Icons or Badges , taught by Dominic Flask, with pretty good results, and a much better handle on vector art. If you are a a beginner and want to learn some Illustrator basics, I would highly recommend this class.

My project theme was California flowers that attract bees, and I created an icon for each of 12 flowers. As an extra, I also put together a masthead graphic – I’m hoping to set up a webpage with the icons and useful information about the flowers.

New Prints available in my Etsy Shop!

The artwork for this year’s Dia de los Muertos poster is complete, with a few tweaks since the original version that I shared. The posters will be available November 2nd at the event in Garfield Park in San Francisco, but if you want a print of just the artwork from the poster, you can get it here, now!

My six-eyed jackalope is also available as a print, and makes a great pairing with the rhino beetle print!
