Pixie

This is an old illustration but one that I'm quite fond of. She's supposed to be some sort of a wood sprite. My first "nudie" too-although everything has been carefully censored. :) I've started on a couple of Christmas card designs that I plan to give out to friends and family. I'll be posting those for anyone to download and give to their loved ones.
~Ciao!

Tangy Specks

On my old blog, I uploaded a series of anime characters with interesting hair of different colors. Here's orange, the latest of the series. I'll reupload pink since it's my favorite, but the others need a little tweaking first. Unlike the others, this one was done in Flash. I just learned that for fancier shapes, it's better to work in Flash than Illustrator.

I really like the freckles. I added them at the last minute.

Just use gel.

I have crazy big hair. It never does what I want it to do, and it always gets in my boyfriend's face. One day, he said, "Your hair attacks me every night." I thought that was a good idea for a character. So I created this girl who literally has hair with a mind of its own. If you look carefully, you'll see it's forming the shape of a sinister hand. :) I drew in a style I normally don't use. It's almost Tim Burton-ish. Almost.
I hope to do more with her. I want to create more characters from her world, but first I think I'd better name her.
