Isn’t She Lovely?
Isn’t she wonderful? Yeah, she kinda is. Last year I had the opportunity to show some work with a dear friend of mine and we both independently settled on doing super hero pinups. I already posted Mystique, but I thought that…
Pisces
And here she is; the last of the Celestial Cuties in my zodiac series. I’m actually kind of proud of this piece above all the others, but mostly because whenever I’ve seen a personification of Pisces, she’s almost always a…
Aquarius

Back in October (wow, I’m really keeping current aren’t I?) my mom celebrated her birthday, so I decided to draw her a picture. What did I draw? Was it a sensitive portrait? Was it a luscious landscape? Was it a…
