So, thank you goes out to all MMB's wonderful supporters! MMB could not have had such a successful year without all of you!

And a big congratulations to Molly for all her hard work, passion and dedication! You've done truly amazing things in such a short time!!


Thanks again everyone and here's to another great year!!!

Food post!

I know I don't normally do this, but unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances, I don't have any art to post this week!

So... Cupcakes! I'm taking a cake decorating class currently, so it's just some practice! Need to get better!!

Now, I'm off to Niagara Falls for the weekend! I'll try to update with something from the hotel, but no promises!

Have a great weekend everyone!!

Art Demo!

So I was hired, thanks to Gary Chapple, to do an art demo at a budding artist's birthday party today!

I stressed all week about making a nice lesson plan so that the kids would have fun, drew up some random sketches and a little how-to page.. the whole she-bang. Within 20 minutes my lesson plan was out the window! Lol But in a good way!

I did lots of little things for the kids, portraits, characters, random things... I even drew Justin Bieber, which was definitely a new experience for me! But the girl I drew it for was very happy and said she'd hang it up on her wall.. so that makes me happy!!

So yes! It all went very well and the girls seemed to have a great time! It was awesome to see such an enthusiastic group of young budding artists (There was actually a Doctor Who fan in the group too!)!




One of the pages I gave to the kids. Wanted random things they could reference from different things that the birthday girl and I both liked. Most of them are just 30 second sketches. No more than a minute each. Wanted to keep the pace going!

You're a star!



I appear to have been on a roll this weekend! It's lovely! I've managed to get some things off of my to-do list!!

BUT! I have a number of little projects coming up within the next week or so, plus I'm going away on the 26th... so I will have to pull up my socks and get on it!

The one that started it all!




THIS has been a long time coming! It was my first Roski image, the one that allowed me to get to know all the lovely peeps in the Roski fandom (seriously, I want to be friends with all of them but am far too shy!)

I originally had a green and gold theme with it.. but it just wasn't working for me ... so I went more... frosty!

Something sexy this way comes...



This was a request from a friend! She just asked for something sexy... so I went off and did a pinup version of her. The Halloween theme is because it's a) coming up and b) her favourite holiday!

Wedding gift...




A wedding gift for two important friends of mine (http://stopwithoutafarmhousenear.tumblr.com)! They got married last month and I just had to do something for them.

SO! I decided to use one of their cosplay photos of them as 11 and Idris from Doctor Who and make it all… timey-wimey spacey-wacey! :D

I’m very very happy with how it came out.. especially the colours. I really hope they like it as well!!

Congratulations, guys! Love you both very much and wish you all the best.



(...Of course, upon uploading it, I realized I failed to turn on a layer when I had the file printed. D'oh. Sent the couple a fixed version though!)

You Ain't in Gotham Anymore, Bub.




Another commission!

This time I was asked to do a picture of the client's friend as Wolverine (hence tattoos) facing off against Batman! With a few other personal touches for the friend as well. :)

This took a lot longer than I had thought it would-- it was very challenging! Basically, everything that gives me trouble all rolled into one piece, lol. BUT! I like a good challenge, so I'm pleased with how it came out! And the client is happy too, so even better!!

Eep.

Life. Things. Excuses. Now art!


"R-Rose? What are you doing? We need to figure out how--"

"I just want to try something first."

Roski time! Man, it feels like forever since I got a chance to do anything Roski!!

More to come... hopefully tomorrow!
