30-something artist trying to find time to create a little (or hopefully a lot) every day.
30-something - getting close to 40-something; full-time mom, part-time art student at RISD; trying to live simply & cut down on the clutter/excesses of life (esp. toys!); constantly trying to enrich my life & become a better and more interesting person. Oh, and this bug is a spitting ground beetle, scientific name: calosoma auropunctatum, that I painted in a class at RISD. I love bugs.
I'm really happy with this one. This is where all those color mixing tests I did a while back have really paid off. When I'm not sure which color would work best, I flip through those pages and always find exactly what I want. I love how the orange overalls came out. They are a combination of New Gamboge (yellow) and Quin Sienna.

You need to send these pics to a regular editor. How about sending it to the publishing company that did Graeme Base's book (spelling?0 called Animalia? Kira, the teachers would love this book in their classroom. The heck with the calendar. We want the book, we want the book! That's supposed to sound like a chant. love ya, Lori
