Illustration Friday: Leap

My submission for Illustration Friday's "Leap" is from one of my Marisol Greeting Cards and it stems from my having worked in an office when I was younger. It takes a leap to live as an artist and believe in yourself.

Illustration Friday: Multiple

My submission for Illustration Friday's "Multiple" is a dimensional painting called "The dish ran away with the spoon" and deals nicely with the subject of multiple dwellings. I have constructed the kitchen idea a few times and each is slightly different. One version was called "Sinkronicity" and was part of a show called "Five Easy Pieces". I love making kitchens and scenes that require furniture. It is made from wood, foamboard, salt, string, clay, acrylic paints and resin. Happy Illustration Friday everyone!

Illustration Friday: theory

Thank you to everyone that watched the "Home" video and to all the wonderful people that left such nice comments, it means so much to me and David Tobocman! I really love the song a lot because it is so hearfelt. If you missed it you can catch it at the bottom of this post. Today for Illustration Friday's "theory" my submission reflects that according to the theory of Chinese Feng Shui, there are 8 types of auspicious houses that can give people solid financial status, harmonious family relationships, good public relationships and happy marriage status. Tea house and cup made from clay and glazes.

Illustration Friday: "choose"

Most of the time I seem to choose the right illustration to post for Illustration Friday. I think the person who was decorating this room couldn't decide what to put in these frames, so many choices! But I do choose to unveil this youtube by my good friend, musician David Tobocman featuring my artwork. You can see the video here. Enjoy!

Illustration Friday: blanket

My submission for Illustration Friday's "blanket" is from my 2002 HomeMade calendar and the title is "TreeHouse". She often thought her little garden looked like a small brown blanket laying on top of the grass carpet under her umbrella tree.

I am late with my submission today because I went out for an appointment this morning and a young girl crashed into me and my car. I truly felt that my trusty old metal car was a blanket that wrapped me in safety because the impact was so hard it blew all the glass from the window all over me. Sadly my beloved 89 bmw looks bad and I hope it can be fixed... But I'm happy to be back home.
