Marshmallow Bats

Meet the marshmallow bats. They can be found in Honduras. A few of these little mischievous guys could fit in the palm of your hand. They are another one of my pieces who originated from watching the series "Planet Earth." They looked so adorable napping on large tree leaves that  I had to draw my own version.  The little one in the center is a bit too happy for his own good. The others obviously know he's up to something. I eventually made a case for Batgirl (the Ipad2) with this sketch. It is made of felt on it. I worked on these guys mid flights. I was flying from Los Angeles to Canada before moving to Vancouver when I finished them.

*side note: I tend to name my inanimate computerized objects. After superheroes.

Alternate Love Birds

This alternate was created while searching through some old black and white photos I found. I looked at my art work and thought hmmm... I wonder. Sometimes its as simple as that.

Love Birds

My artistic style changes from time to time as you can see. Its simply because i'm an artist of course. I just cant paint one way and one way only. Here with a little change I present: My Lovebirds.

The idea for them came while spending time with my boyfriend Nick. He was sharing the series "Planet Earth" with me. An amazing series where a few more of my ideas spawned. While we were watching one of the discs on birds of all kinds I pulled out my sketchbook and started drawing. I realized I was drawing on pink paper and soon after a few different sketches I finally settled on this one to take to Batmankoff (my cintiq). I spent an entire day just working on these cute little lovers.
