Mad Hatter Drawing

It's good to change the pace up a bit so I took a minnie break from the critter project. Changing gears helps to keep the creative juices following. I'm a big fan of the Alice in Wonderland story. The new upcoming movie is creating a lot of excitement for fans of this fairytale. I am definitely among those who are looking forward to the new movie. With that being said, I got inspired to create my version of the Mad Hatter character. I think I did a reasonable job of creeping him out. This is a 9 x 12 inch drawing on Bristol done in pigment ink markers and pens.

Do you have a favorite character in Alice in Wonderland? I would love to know what you think and what character I might be challenged to try.

Henry 10

Henry is the rooster in my flock of 13 chickens pictured with 2 hens. I raised the birds from day old chicks. Henry and the Hens is a 8 x 10 acrylic painting on unframed canvas and is available for sale at my website. I would love to see more pets for this art project. You can forward your pet photos to me at SunfluerDesigns@Yahoo.com

Art Journal

While the underpainting of the new pet portrait is drying, I made an art journal. This is a project I've been wanting to do for a while. I know I can just go buy a sketch book for journaling but why do that when I can make one with the materials I have on hand. Plus it's fun to do. I gathered up some very nice heavy card stock and cut it to size. Cut up sheets of sketch paper and put together this book. I now have a unique journal to record my art ideas.
