Illustration Friday: Visitor

Illustration Friday: Visitor
Colored Pencil
This summer I was a visitor to New York City. On my trip to the Statue of Liberty, I joined everyone else there taking lots of pictures looking up at the Statue.
P.S. My sincerest apologies to my loved ones in this drawing. They look much better than this in real life!!!

Illustration Friday: Twist

Illustration Friday: Twist

Colored Pencil
I am a little behind on my Illustration Friday blog. I did some travelling, so I wasn't able to get anything posted. This week the theme was "Twist", so I drew the twist tie on a loaf of bread.

"To the disdain of women everywhere, it is swimsuit season again."


I tried drawing my husband's suit, and a suit of cards, and then I remembered that is about time to try on swimsuits ...UGH!

Illustration Friday: Your Paradise



Illustration Friday: Your Paradise

Pen

A bubble bath, a good book, scented candles, and Norah Jones on my ipod sounds like paradise to me. I couldn't quite figure out how to add chocolate in there.

This is my second attempt at this week's theme. My first one was a picture of my kid's laughing, but I didn't like the way it turned out. This was kind of a quick one because the week is coming to a close.

Graphite Pencil and Colored Pencils


For this week's theme, I drew a picture of some of my son's Hotwheels. I had several different ideas, but I didn't have a lot of time to work on it this week.

Illustration Friday: Signs


Illustration Friday: Signs

Pen and watercolor

I decided to illustrate the sign for "I Love You". If you click on the picture, you can see that the shading is made up of the words "I love you".

Illustration Friday: Citrus


Illustration Friday: Citrus
Torn Paper Collage
For this week's theme, I decided to do something a little different. I made a picture of lemons using torn paper. I wish I had spent a little more time on the lemon on the left. I am not very satisfied with the way it turned out. We are moving this week, so I should be packing. I had to give up on it for today.
