Work In Progress - Wild Things!

Continuing with the botanic garden theme this week, here's how the iguana has come along so far. Working on the rest of the piece this afternoon. Some pics of the process, from pencil, to ink, to Photoshop color. And a few shots I took while taking Maggie out in the backyard. Inspiration is everywhere you look!

Medellin Botanic Garden

The hubs and I went to the Botanic Gardens this weekend. It's located in the heart of the city, and you can find hundreds of plants (native, medicinal, etc) and animals, such as iguanas, birds, and insects. Some pics of our day there and a quick notebook sketch of a friend we made.

Bird, Flower, and Leaves

Exploring some vector art inspired by the Mola patterns of the Kuna indians from Colombia. Molas are the traditional costumes worn by the women from this indigenous group. They're made with layers upon layers of fabric and completely embellished by hand.

I'm Going Back to School with Lilla Rogers!

Super excited to be able to participate in Lilla Roger's MATS (Make Art That Sells) e-course (A and B) that starts March the 2nd! I can't wait to learn, grow, expand my art-making horizons, and be inspired by Lilla and hundreds of wonderful artists who will be joining me. I will post my progress in this blog! :)
