The Wooden Roses 2

I had too much fun sketching out the other WR characters to accompany Aidan in my little fantasy band. I wonder what they would sound like.

Incase you can't tell who's who, we have Lillian on fiddle, the doctor on drums, Nessa on guitar and Aidan on guitar and vocals. :)

Darlingside

Here is my fan art in support of the local band Darlingside, a string-rock quintet who I saw for the first time live at the Mayfair in Harvard Square in Cambridge, MA. I only had one short glimpse of them, but they stole my heart with their warm string-filled sound, and their energy and talent. I will definitely be there when they return to Boston.

The Grateful Crane

I did this watercolor painting a couple years ago. It was inspired by the Japanese folk tale "The Grateful Crane".

WTD: Bellying

I finally found time to participate in this week's What the Doodle on the Creative Juices Blog. The word was bellying.

The Wooden Roses

Sometimes when I listen to music, I like to imagine my characters as the singers. Weird, I know. So I did this little doodle of how Aidan might look performing in a modern rock concert. If I get any spare time I would love to: (a) do the other characters as well; (b) color it and make it into an official-looking concert poster.

Apolo

I love drawing portraits. In honor of the Olympics I did this little sketch of Apolo Ohno, the short-track speed skater champion. It took me less than 30 minutes.

Valentine

Nessa and Aidan wish you a Happy Valentine's Day (via me of course)! I had fun creating this little Wooden Rose holiday painting. I got a bunch of them printed small and handed them out at FableVision for our Valentine exchange. Enjoy!
