Summer

No, it's not the topic for Illustration Friday, but it's my excuse for not doing any IF for a while. I didn't realize how much more I could get done while Sofia was in half day preschool . For now, I'm back to full time mom of two. I am working on some knitting and a birth announcement for my sister. Summer fun will be posted here!

Jungle

Acrylic on illustration board. 9.25 in. by 12 in.

I did this piece a couple years ago in a class. It was for a Los Angeles Times Magazine article about a young kid in South Los Angeles trying to free himself from the gang life.

Portrait of Two Girls Sitting Amongst the Lettuces


Acrylic on canvas board. 10 in. by 14 in.

This is based on a photo I took of my two girls at a farm this spring. I am reposting a new version on Friday 6/9, which I think is better, not perfect, but that's what practice is for, right.
