  • Here are two color studies I've done over spring break!

    They're both done in technical pen, with a splash of acrylic ink. Both 9"x8"

    There are many many more to come. These are just two out of twenty!

    Enjoy!

  • Grey Days Illustration No. 2!

    Acrylic ink, watercolor, marker, colored pencil, technical pen and salt.

    The scan got really muddy, so TRUST ME, it looks much better in real life.
    Enjoy!

  • I failed to post these two other illustrations from the past!
    They're both 22"x30", watercolor, acrylic ink, pen and colored pencil.
    They're about 2 different desires, one inherent (to appear attractive to a mate) and one learned (to exercise)

  • Oh mannnnn,
    I'm freaking out.
    It's 10:57am and at 11:15 I have my junior review. I have no doubt that I will do well, but I have those down to the wire heeby-jeebies. NNGG.

    Wish me luck. Then again you'll most likely be reading this when it's over. Then I will give an update about how it went.

    Love,
    A very anxious Mary

    edit:
    The review was AWESOME! :D

    White base with the pattern on front and back. Magenta ribbon with a little bird tag attached with black ribbon.
    The bag is about 7 3/4"x9 3/4"

  • It's been a while, and I literally have two three illustrations that I have yet to scan and get onto my computer. So I'll have those up as soon as I get them back.

    But for the meantime, here is a pattern that I made for a baby shower gift bag:

    I mocked up the bag itself last night, so I'll snap a picture of it and put it up on here soon.
    Enjoy this tiny shred of what I've been working on lately!

    Love,
