Fringe Madness!!

Hello all,

This week has been hectic and full of creative fun. The Saskatoon Fringe Festival started up Thursday the 29th, and is running until Saturday the 7th!! My boy-wonder fiancee Stefan and I are both participating, me with a smorgasbord of adorable goodness, and him with some seriously stellar photography that will wow the eyes! Needless to say the lead up caused our household to be thrown into creating chaos , with supplies and creations covering all surfaces and even creeping up the walls. :P Full pictures of this megalithic mess, our booth, as well as new work, will be posted later in week or early next, following a bit of recovery death-nap :P If you're in town, Come check us out down on Broadway!!

Also, be on the lookout for another download-able desktop from yours truly, coming up this week with Erika Brouwer's newly updated "Canvas Collective" site! Lots of fun and busy, busy, busy!!!!

Making Bones Pretty

Just a quick little rainy day post that I've been meaning to get around too...

My oh-so-charming male counterpart has been studying up a storm for his upcoming PhD comprehensives and the notebook he was using was.....well, lets just leave it at hideous. *wink*

One rough transfer drawing and some acrylic paint later.... ta da!

much improved. Happy notations champion :P

Mmmmmm Summer

Today is a GORGEOUS day in Saskatoon! The perfect sort of early summer day that is breezy, juuuust hot enough for shorts and skirts and perfect to sit outside with a mojito and watch the plants grow.

In this lazy summer frame of mind I thought I'd post a glimpse of my first home silk-screening results! Ta-Da!!!! A BBQ-ready shark! Outfitted in cheerful summer yellow or red and spatula at the ready, these bizarre summer flavoured prints will be up for sale soon at the Saskatoon Fringe Festival and maybe online as well!

Enjoy the day everyone!

Free Wallpaper!!!

My super awesome Friend Erika Brouwer, (Graphic Designer Extraordinaire), recently created a magical place called Canvas, and it is a place where brand spanking new download-able desktops are available every week by a new artist!

With my week fast approaching I found myself stumped. Quite thoroughly. So with 2 days left to go and surrounded by half-finished and discarded ideas, I decided just to let my creative slump have its way.

Check out all the fun work available from a barrage of truly talented peeps.

Hungry Bear

Sometimes, strange things happen in the night.

Ooooooh! New Stuff!

Well. Here's a little preview of a new experiment started in the winter months. What began as a decorative owl, floating around became.... snubbed? For some reason, an owl who would rather stare at a tree then make up seems hilarious to me. And I guess a bit unfortunate for the other owl.

Them's the breaks kid.

Work it out Little Mama

Well, yesterday's refreshing change in the weather has inspired me to start tackling some of those long overdue items that didn't seem appropriate during the winter months. So in a fit of feel-good spring spirit, I decided to get some exercise! And finally draw that random picture of Jane Fonda I'd been talking about for a while now. :P

And since Jane Fonda work-outs were the soundtrack to my youth, it was a pleasantly random afternoon that reminded me of home :D
