Pose-able Bunny




this little guy has pose-able arms, he was the toughest I've attempted yet. i sewed on the ears and legs backwards initially, which lead to some thread cutting and ripping... sewing it on the machine was really tough due to his small scale... but i learned a lot and i think i've come a long way. ;-)

Apparently I misunderstood the rules of the Contest cause mine doesn't look like it fell in the dirt, then in glitter, then rubbed out with a worn eraser.

My submission




Mine aren't as good as Alex's and Joffrey's (if i had a vote i would've voted for one of theirs...), but they were a decent attempt anyway.

Season's Greetings...

...even though Thanksgiving is still a few days away. Here was my submission for THQ's Holiday Card Contest, and though I didn't win...it was still fun making it. Oh well, maybe next year.

Sometimes I take headshots for my actor friends.
Here are a few from my latest session of Karen.



I love taking shots of my friends in character.
This is Karen as as "Ember Quinn."
These are my faves.

Hedgehog


I saw this one on the internet, so it's not an original idea... but i wanted to see if i could replicate it- it was a really good learning exercise! after 3 tries i finally got it right ;-) and now, it can go on to the collection of hedgehogs i'm putting together for my sis!

Tapir


it was meant to be a hedgehog for my little sister... this was attempt 2 and somewhere along the line it went wrong... but i'm working on another one! 3rd try is the charm right? anyway, this guy was still cute i thought, so I kept him.

Albert & Beetle Bug


Albert almost landed in the trash! Oh no! I barely got his arms turned inside out... glad I didn't have to throw him away because he's waving at me and it would have been so sad!


made it this weekend- ran into no troubles with this one. That's a first!

Sketchbook at Lulu



Yongwoo educated me about the Lulu publishing company.

Ask him all about it. If you produce random sketches and scan them, you're ready for your own slick sketchbook.

Well, Yongwoo's will be slick. Mine is what it is.

Check it out.

I love my hit counter spiking up.

Please don't feel obligated to buy. I'm the main consumer. Cool, slick, over packaged copies of my doodles. I bought 4.

Busy Bee





went to the Getty this weekend and snapped some shots... for more images, you can find them here

My most recent craftiness




I'm working on getting together a package for my little sister. She loves hedgehogs, so I'm trying to make her some cool hedgehog stuff. I knit 2 of the hedgehogs but they look kind of silly to me, so I will keep on trying until I get it right.

Mushroom Boy





handsewn softie- my first attempt to convert a drawing I did into a softie...

it was difficult to make your own pattern, but I learned a lot in the process!
1. make a prototype first with just white felt or fabric (that way you're not attached to it and can adjust and make a proper pattern off of it)
2. attach the body to the head piece first, repeat and then sew it all together
3. don't overstuff or your handsewn stitches will pull
4. plan ahead, plan ahead, i didn't allow seam allowance for the face

but all in all, he's still cute!
