Drawing Challenge Day#3

Today’s drawing challenge was one I particularly liked… pick an inanimate object that you wished could talk to you.

As many people know I didn’t even have to think about this.

I have always wanted to talk to my car. I want her to be like KITT but sassier. And I want to her stop crimes or whatever talking cars do.

 

What would you want to talk to you?

ps. I can’t draw cars… maybe its good I didn’t try to be an automotive designer.

Groundhog Gangster

Today is groundhog’s day.

It’s a time when we watch Bill Murray movies, and think about when we can wear shorts without freezing our butts off.

And although science, and weather people on TV are all like “El Nino is gonna get you… tonight” like a Gloria Estefan song…

Punxsatawny Phil is like… “Whatever whatever, it’s almost spring.”

Do you feel confused about this too? Now, who should you call about this? Maybe Bill Murray directly and not Ghostbusters… they are like ladies now or something.

Mermaids with Style: Elisa Edition

I have been trying to improve my drawing abilities… because why the heck not.

And to combine that with my penchant for drawings Mermaids… and you get…

Well, you get more mermaids… just drawing with eyes instead of my signature beady-eyes

This one is a shout out to my homie Elisa and her uncanny ability to always be on vacation or planning one!

Right now she’s planning our vacation to Greece! We are going there this spring and it’s going to be amazing. And we are going to do what we do best, drink, laugh and look at buildings and stuff. I feel like I should put that on my resume…. so someday I can be professional looker at buildings, with an emphasis in laughing and drinking.

The New Fashion

I feel like since I have been working in retail design that now I have an official opinion about fashion.

And because I saw seasons of fashion just thrown into a junky room full of screens for like 9 hours a day for like… every weekday I can say things with an authority or something.

  1. I will never wear a see through skirt to work. I am not Bridget Jones. And I do not work with Hugh Grant. See through skirts = creepy notes on linkedin… from guys who don’t look like Hugh Grant… or Colin Firth for that matter.

  2. And I don’t want to wear overalls. I get really bad flashbacks of all the clothes on “Full House” that DJ Tanner used to wear because I can’t chance my loose drapey overalls falling off showing that I own an embarrassing amount of polka dot underpants:

  3. I don’t want to look like I mugged Indiana Jones on my way to spend a night out on the town
  4. And I definitely don’t want to look like a snake:

Because then Indiana Jones will never ask me out to the Spring Fling Dance.

 

Happy 2016,
