Plush Overdose

Alrighty, with the Holidays quickly coming to an end, I'm going to take a break from making my little plush critters and re-focus on painting. There are several little guys still in my shop. Here's a peek at a few of their little faces.

See it in person!

Happy to announce that my paintings will be adorning the walls of the Nabolom Bakery Collective now through January 3rd. Drop by and check em out while picking up some scrumptious baked goods.

A Random Painting

I really felt like painting today... I haven't had much time for it lately, but I managed to squeak this out tonight.

Plush Attack!

This little bunny was a custom request. I love the floppy ears!

Another custom order, I think I love the way this one turned out enough to make some more!

This little monster looks perpetually guilty! I wonder what he's up to now. Take him home!

The latest addition to my little plush world is this quizzical kitty-squirrel. A bit confused identity-wise, it's looking for someone to snuggle. Take it home!

New Portrait in Progress

Last night I whipped out my oil paints that had been busy collecting dust and started this portrait of a friend. She reminds me a bit of that woman from the National Geographic cover.

It's a little different than a lot of what I've done, but I think this is more a direction that I'd like to pursue - a bit more dramatic/rich. I'm not quite sure how to explain it. I figure it's about 65% done at this point (I'm guessing I'll be working on it most of today and then have to walk away before I mess it up too much). One thing I've learned though, is that I love love love painting on wood. More to come!

Bendy Ears!

This little guy flew off to Canada to keep a little guy company. I plan on making more with similarly bendable ears - stay tuned!
