i was a busy girl and then i started taking summer school (geometry rots the brain, really) and got a job :/
i'm interning at Lip Service, a Los Angeles-based design house, doing graphic-y things. it's fun, sort of, but after a while you find that all you can draw anymore are skulls and snakes and roses and occasionally dead birds and lollypops. the other day i drew some thirty-odd bugs for a textile pattern just for some variation.

anyway, what all that rot means is that none of this is really new. much of it bordering on very old. basically i''m ******** until school starts, and then everything i draw will be fer classes. there is no winning in this world.

this is the second-or-so page of a cute little kiddie comic i did for school some time last year. it''s my favourite. it has fishies.

this 'un is the title page for one of the other comic i did last year, a mildly disturbed rebuilding of the Nutcracker story. it's a widdle womance. awww.

this is kinda sorta almost recent. this and the next two are of a set, more or less- my own original characters which can be found on Once which is pretty cool.
this is the first of 'em i did, and i love the flat colouring but i''d have had to do the background more detailed to make it actually work. but i''m fairly new to the actual background-using thing in general.
her name's Kristopher.

this is Colette, a ghost who drinks lots of coffee.

and Moira, lounging on a park bench. the bench looks retarded.

old-old. did this waay back when when i had pink hair (january? ish? or maybe some time towards the end of last year) for a friend of mine, loosely based on a limerick she wrote for me. which i couldn't rember, so i made one up loosely on the same subject.


edit:
it's small sad *baww*
photobucket doesn't like big stuff :

character doodles for a comic based on an extended rp on Once.

the girl is kristopher, stylised for ease of drawing repeatedly, and the boy is charlie who doesn't belong to me. i don't actually know what he looks like, really, and should probably check.

I like the face of the Kristopher in the slip. The way the eyes were done and the expression reminds me of Vera Brosgol's style..althought i'm not sure it's exclusively hers either. I just mean i like the look of it.

The third and fourth images on your original post remind me of the person who draws my life in blue. And I really like that last one with the carnival!

wow, thanks.
the artist of my life in blue is kind of ridiculously brilliant generally.

Love it.

Huh, I own some stuff by Lip Service.

I haven't seen anything new by them that I've liked. But I'm sure you have the insider eye on that sort of thing. XD

heh. yeah, there's some cute things going on right now, but i don't know. it's tough to reconcile contemporary tendencies with a market for cheesy hard rock stuff, which is what a lot of the designers are having to do- except, ironically, the rather-good hard rock designers who are being asked to do cheesy hiphop/pop crap.

doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
but hey, it's something to put on the resume and get credit for at school.
