Easter is right around the corner and I feel the need to do a fun Easter project. It will be a photo project…using..Peeps. Peeps come in so many colors…oh it will be awesome. I’m in the process of getting my ticket to Japan. I can’t wait to get there. I know it will be hard, but I am looking forward to the challenge.
So, stay tuned for my Easter Peeps photo set.
Since my last post, I have been very fatigued and not feeling very well…thus I have not done anymore ATC’s nor have I finished my Valentine’s project. I feel unaccomplished because of this but what can I do. Starting March 1st I will stop producing art as I need to back up my studio.
On April 19th, I will be flying to Japan. I will be living there for at least a year. In my heart, I want to stay longer. I did do a couple of Valentine’s Day photos.
Enjoy!
I have just about finished my space themed year of the Rat ATC (artist trading card). I noticed I didn’t line the planet in the upper left corner. Other than that, it is done.

This next ATC I am having some issues with.

The main problem is deciding what colors to use. I want the star to appear iridescent like gem and rainbow will be the tail. I just know that the starry gem is going to take a while to do. I will have to build layers to get it how I want it
. I am using gouche and acrylic on this ATC. The red and gold are working very well for me. The border will be gold leaf (using a gold leafing pen). I will definitely use those colors on the 3rd ATC I am working on!
I made a custom banner for my Vox blog. I will be making a banner for this blog in the next few days.
The design is one I came up with several years ago. The character, Mystic Mime, was suppose to be for my main website, but I decided to go in a different direction. I am happy I held on to that sketch, because it came in handy.
I normally get depressed around Valentine’s Day. But I have found focus in doing these illustration inspired by Valentine’s Day. It is still early. Who knows how I will feel come February 12th or 13th ![]()
I think I have done all I can for the following illustration titled “Love Letter 1.”

Four down, ten to go….
