Ok so I finished this a few days ago, but I finally gave it to my boyfriend’s parents. Sorry I didn’t post yesterday, but I had my friend Johnny Chew Awesome Kid over and I didn’t want to be rude to him : )
Tonight I started out doodling with no direction whatsoever….
Then I got to thinking about my Thing-A-Day partner Joonbugg (who IS participating and participating well, she just doesn’t post as often as me) and did this for her…
“Never was a cornflake girl, I hung out with the raisin girls…”
It’s a reference to the Tori Amos song “Cornflake Girl”. I may not have got the last part of the lyric right (she pronounces things funny) but you get my drift.
I decided illustrating song lyrics might be fun, so I went to the next one that popped in mind…
This next one is posted in thumbnail format because it has a tiny amount of female nudity, and I am a little unsure of the TAD terms & rules. I don’t wanna get kicked off the blog.
“She liked to keep her body clean, clean… She thought the world to be quite obscene”
From “Oedipus” by Regina Spektor.
And the last one, also in thumbnail format because it features a little male anatomy lesson that everyone who’s ever watched Shin Chan on Adult Swim knows… Please be forewarned before you click, lest you be offended by Mister Happy…
“To be a man you must have honor, honor and a penis.”
Well you can pretty much see every object in the drawing’s thumbnail anyway. Oops! Oh well, if you’re offended by the tiny THUMBNAIL weewee, you may just need to lighten up some. SRSLY.
(You can tell I was a little shy about drawing the penis, I didn’t bear down with the Ebony pencil near as much as the rest of the sketch. I’m such a shy little girl sometimes. Nevermind that I’m almost 25 and married. LOL.)
I did a cleaned up version of a sketch to get it ready for coloring. I like to call it No Worries! This Thing-a-day is proving to be hard. How do you guys have time for it.
I also scanned in the cover of a book I make for x-mas presents. It was a mini recipe book to go with chocolate chip cookies in a jar (pre baked). I was very proud of it, but now it makes me sad. My computer was stolen so I don’t have the original file. Sadly this is just a scan from one of the copies I borrowed from my boyfriend’s mom.
I’ve been wanting to draw dinos for a while now and this idea came to me the other day. I wanted to color it, but the day just isn’t long enough. Also, I dunno if it’s coloring material? On another note, I originally planned to paint dinos on rocks I got from the beach. I dunno if it’s Dinos I want to paint anymore. Anyone got any other ideas? I want to sell them too, so I’m trying to think of things lots of people would like. Maybe you want to buy one? what would you want painted on a rock? 
Here are the rocks to give you an idea of what I have. Most of them are palm sized. Some are smaller. And as you can see some are larger.
Here’s my first Thing-A-Day. It was kind of a struggle since my computer was stolen recently and I haven’t quite set this one up yet. I also think I found a dead firewire port while doing this >: ( Anyway, I’m doing this in hopes to make more art, and hopefully sell some of it in order to help offset the cost of buying a new computer.
