1. A Nervous Pig

Here's another spot illustration. It's done in gouache but I tried to retain the line more, I did this by building up thinner layers of gouache. Here's an interesting quote from Lisbeth Zwerger " I think pictures should be mysterious, because it makes you want to look at them again and again, to solve the riddle." ( from American Artist Watercolor magazine, Fall 2005)

2. Thimble Witch


This is something a little different I wanted to try. It's water colour and pencil on hand made paper with paper and thread collaged on. I was inspired by the work of Gretel Parker and Lisbeth Zwerger, I wanted to do something with more subtlety and a looser feel. The paper has a slight greenish tinge and is very absorbent, both things that I had to contend with to make the picture work. The title, Thimble Witch, comes from a book by Holly Black called Valiant.

3. Check it out! We Got Our MiniVan 'Wrapped!'

Karen arranged to get the minivan 'wrapped,' which means it's covered with the Lemonade Mouth cover. We're thrilled with it!

Check out these shots:

   

So here we are with our lovely 'new' van! We can't wait to get going on this tour! Two days to go...! :-)
