An entry to Post-It note contest to see  Alton Brown ... which ended up being cancelled. Still, fun to do after months of all work and no art!

I was thinking what a Matryoshka doll would look like if she had no family, no children, or was infertile. And then my pen ran out of ink and I made the same face.

New pens, new sketchbook, new Main+Local Montreal pencil case, and a gift card to an art store for Xmas = lost in doodling.

The One I Call I am still playing around with watercolors and discovering what I am comfortable with. Meaning, how to use watercolors without wanting to punch someone in the face or set something on fire. So, I was listening to this song by Lou Barlow called The One I Call and painted the first few lines. It's not that great...and it is fairly immature...but for some reason, this makes me feel happy whenever I look at it. Maybe it's the watering can.

"Om nom nom" - a work doodle

[stickynotesfromtheheart]

I draw, I illustrate, I write, and I do it with honesty. I appreciate every kind and encouraging word. The invitations to participate in exhibits amaze me and I am grateful. That being said, this bears repeating : ~ Because some illustrations are of a sexual nature, this is NOT an invitation for...

It's truly sad that I have to re-blog this.  A reminder, guys - don't be a creep to women artists. Don't be a creep to women. Period.

Drop art - not bombs! September 2nd is World Art Drop Day! To quote the artist, Jake Parker, who started this beautiful idea, "we need to feel a little more connection to each other and there's nothing like the bond two random strangers can make through the act of creating and giving."

Of course, I art dropped and then it started pouring rain.  Double bagged and under some rocks, you can find a print of one of my favourite and most personal pieces. It can be found at the feet of the strongman of St-Henri, Montreal. Let's hope it is not soaked!

A little time-lapse of some sketching.

[stickynotesfromtheheart]

I normally don't reblog from my Sticky Notes site but I'm all about supporting my artist friends. Also, it is a time lapse of a sketch of my face (old hair style, I must note!).

I tried watercolours for the first time last night. This was my second attempt - a take on a previous ink illustration. I added ink to this to see what would happened. I probably shouldn't have but trial and error, am I right?! Watercolours are a difficult medium but practise makes perfect, so they say!

Still accurate.
