More, more, more

But still not enough. And only a week to go.







Could someone please send the art fairy to my house this week?

Something old. Something new.

Nope, not getting married. Just getting organised.

It's taken me weeks to get a decent scan of my final piece for the group show that's been and gone and is all but forgotten! I was in the throes of a mild obsession with chickens (ever seen the book Extraordinary Chickens?) when I illustrated Fox:



So now that's out of the way, I can focus on Christmas.

I've been toying with an idea about using candy canes in a different way. Slightly cabaret. Slightly burlesque.

By the same token, I'm cautious about being too blatantly risque with a Christmas card image as this may not be the merry message everyone wants to send!

So 'Candy' may be sexy, but she's also keeping herself nice:



I've popped her in my Etsy shop as a single card, pack of 5 and pack of 10.



Have a great weekend!

Almost done

Amazingly, it seems to be under control.

I bought frames this evening and am furiously - ahem, I mean carefully and elegantly - framing my art for next week.

Here's the latest piece for the show. She's still untitled, so I'll have to think fast over the weekend.



I'd JUST finished her off (at work) and was getting a photocopy for my moleskine/mini art folio when my boss walked in on me....and bought her!

As stoked as I was, there was a moment of blind panic when I thought I'd have to put together a replacement piece overnight. Instead I'll put her in as planned and just have her priced as 'sold'.

Too tired to draw any more. Must watch Project Runway and go to bed.
