Been incredibly busy but had some time to make some Christmas cards for friends and family inspired by days spent at my grandmother's home during the holidays. Hope everyone is staying warm and doing well.

Time Ladies 

[ID: two digital drawings of Romana I and Romana II. The first depicts Romana I against a black backdrop lying down in a white dress with a feathered hood. She is gazing at the viewer with a look of superiority. Her white dress is flowing and iridescent. The second depicts Romana II from the shoulders-up, illuminated from the left by the light. She is dressed in a schoolgirl outfit with a dress over a white shirt and a red tie. Her hand is adjusting a straw hat and she is smiling with a knowing look. Both drawings are rendered with pencil, acrylic, and chalk-like brushes. end ID]

Short studies from retro interiors (x/x)

[ID: two digital drawings depicting a retro bathroom and kitchen interior. The bathroom is mainly green and yellow. It features a sink, toilet, bathtub, and a window with blinds. The kitchen is lighter green with a red carpet. A number of pots and pans hang on a rack. Above a small sink area is a window with blinds half-open. end ID]

When I was in Copenhagen, I discovered the 'Irma girl,' the mascot for the now no-longer-operational Danish supermarket chain Irma. Her design over the years is very striking and cute, so I thought she had similarities with a certain character...

[ID: Four digital drawings arranged in a square with a blue background. Three of the drawings depict Cirno from Touhou Project in a stylistic parody of the Irma mascot. The mascot is a full-body simplistic depiction of a little girl to the side, wearing a dress blowing to the left and holding a basket in hand, with white oulines. Each of the drawings is rendered more and more minimalist to reflect the changing design evolution of society. end ID]
