AMOS Showtime piece UP!

 Whoo hoo! My piece for AMOS's showtime is finally up and available for sale up on their website!

Currently, it is up on display at a wonderful gallery called Parzelle403, in Basel, Switzerland. For those following along at home, this is my FIRST international showing of my artwork! : D
(www.parzelle403.ch).

 If you are not in Switzerland, you can always check it out online here!

AMOS Showtime

I saw over on my friend Eliza's blog that she had done this amazing piece for a group show being organized by the German musician, Amos, and dropped them an email asking if they were still looking for artists.

Here's a link to the project

I was -just- under the deadline- they shipped me a blank album cover, and I got to create a design for it! I sent it off today; a day late, but then again, I just got the cover on Saturday!

It was a pretty fun project- the album covers will tour around different galleries across Europe and be available for sale in person and online.

I'll definitely post more details once they receive it and post it on their site! : D

Here are some Work In Progress shots:

Centaurette

Illustration Friday: Linked

What better to illustrate "Linked" than a pair of lovely siamese twins? : D

Trapeze girl & Goddess with hawk

Trapeze Girl

I always mix up Minerva and Diana- I love the motif of a bird (owl, but in this case, hawk,) but i am also in love with that crescent moon thing on her head. For those keeping count, Athena loves war & owls, Diana loves hunting and moons.

(I have to go out of town to take care of some family business, so there may not be any updates for the next few days...)

Bonus drawing!

Skeleton circus pony!

Another circus pony!

I used to know an old ex-circus pony named Goblin who was a tiny black fat pony up at horse camp.  Occasionally, somebody would inadvertently do a cue and she'd do a trick (bow, rear, etc), but we could never figure out what it was that somebody did to get her to do it consistently!

Circus girl

Got inspired to do a circus girl tonight- the horse reminded Damon of Bugs' horse from What's Opera Doc.. ha ha ha!  Maybe it was subconscious!

Illustration Friday "Routine"

Some might think that doing the same circus routine day after day might get old, but she always felt lucky to have the job she did.

Whale rider

Come see the magnificent Whale Riding Wonder! What I wonder, though, is how that fancy feather on her headdress stays dry!



Anyway, I'm off to San Diego Comic-Con through Sunday, so even though I'll be doing my drawings, I most likely won't have access to a scanner/computer, so updates til then- looking forward to seeing all the art books, toys, and crazy crush of humanity!
