Project T-Scape

This blog began as the home for Project T-scapes, an artistic venture in which I visited every stop on Boston's subway system and created a small marker sketch. The project is now complete and the full gallery of T-scapes can be found here: laurawmeilman.wix.com/project-t-scapes. My blog updates will now focus on my current projects: Drawing the Minuteman Bike Path and Love Notes for Weirdos. Enjoy!

Hey everyone! I'm going to be tabling at MICE this year with the graphic memoir collective, and I'm debuting this neat little zine of collected comics, and hopefully another project or two, assuming I get them finished in time. I'll keep you in the loop and see you at MICE!

Yesterday I had the great honor of sketching a night blooming cereus as it opened, while listening to friends play guitar and sing, and keeping a sneaky cat away from our snacks. Audrey (the cereus) is a natural at modeling.

Hehehe tumblr flagged this post as inappropriate. Our robot overlords understand Audrey's sensual power.

Hello from the Andes!

Hey I might have told you about Postcrossing (international postcard trading website/forum) when I met you at Ladies Con- thought you should know there's going to be a Postcrossing meetup in Chelmsford November 10th if you are interested (and I feel like the other members would love your art cards.)

Thank you so much for thinking of me-- Postcrossing would totally be right up my alley! I am traveling at the moment and won't be back until later in November, so I'll miss this one but I'll definitely keep an eye out for future ones, and the online resources! I hope you're having a great Fall!

This round of inktober pieces got very birdy and very bonesy.

Three more inktober pieces for you.

I'm deviating from the official prompts this year, but I am doing inktober! This year is about experimenting and playing with the medium, which I haven't done nearly enough of lately.

Hey MBTA fans! I have completed a brand new endeavor that I’m totally excited about– I spent the summer drawing women music icons and I’ve compiled them into a coloring book. I’ll list it on etsy next week, but if you want to check it out in person, I’ll be at LadiesCon at the Armory in Somerville this Saturday!

Oh and I'll have some T- scapes prints and postcards also, along with zines and a few original paintings!
