Finished Dreaming Poodle night shirt

 Again, hello world and blog. Like I posted in my other blog, its been awhile. I know. I always say that, but I have been busy with a personal project. Hoping that it will pan out. 🙏But the way the world is right now, makes me wish I could leave the planet for something better. A planet without AHoles! I ask my self every day lately, "do I even have a future? Is there a point?" "Is there anything for anyone? "I really hope that mister constipated P is not going to wreak the whole world with his selfishness.  Rich people at the top who feel have the right to "pull the strings" make me sick!" 😡You know who you are!!! You will pay by your own hand! Then you will ask"what was the point?!"

Anyways here is how that Dreaming Poodle Night shirt turned out. Very beautifully and just what I needed. Hopefully I will get to make more of these but it seems to get harder and harder to find the time to make personal things for my self. But still going to try. 

Again, I had purchased a nice extra large magenta tank top or well, a plus size. Because I like loose for sleeping. Normally I wear an extra large for day time use shirts. I made a cute drawing of a poodle sleeping and drew some novelty text to enhance my design. Hand printed it onto the tank top. Then hand painted as well as airbrushed the whole thing in fabric acrylic. Finished it by clear coating it.Wore it quite comfortably last summer. 😊

Dreaming Poodle night shirt "The making of" Part2

 Some more lovely pics of my night shirt. They're pretty much done in these pics only some details to be added. Will be show later in the final part of the project. You can see this time there was a lot more airbrushing that was applied. Makes it come alive doesn't it? BTW I'm taking advantage of the colour that's already there for my starting point of the shirt illustration.

 

 

 

 

See previous post for how I started off with this project.  As always hope you like it. 😊

Airbrushed bed spread with dark blue Pansies design.

 Like the descriptions say here are the pics of my finished airbrushed bed spread featuring dark blue pansy blossoms. Finished months ago, only now shared. Sorry about the quality of the pic. I know its a bit dark so I fixed them up as much as I could. But you can see the pics were on the cusp of being over done. Just have to make due sometimes I guess. 

Also might as well post the previous post of the work in progress relating to this project. You can see my explanation as to what can happen sometimes when things don't always go the way you want them. 

 Pics are better in that post too. Just lighting I guess.

 Since then I also decided to airbrush the flowers on the old pillow cases too. But never bothered to take pics of those since they pretty much look all the same as a set. 

Looks even better in person. 😊

Dreaming Poodle Night Shirt origional drawings and some work in progress

 First off Happy New year. Hopefully it will be a better year to come but well you know. I'll keep out the negativity because there's enough of it to go around and we certainly don't need more of it and or around here anyways. 

Going to post some new stuff. Just a hint of it for now since there's a lot of it to show. I actually completed this months ago but I find my self always busy completing something. 

Its of a night shirt with a sleeping dreaming poodle on it. Its both airbrushed and hand painted. I decided to make one since it so hard to find one at a fair price these days. I decided to match it with a pair of I think they're shorts or capri style of PJ pants which also have a doggy theme to them. I'm too lazy to find out what they are for sure. The painted image character and text was made on to a extra, extra large tank top for plus size people for personal comfort. I prefer loose fitting especially for sleeping in. My actual size I prefer is large to extra large fitting for normal daytime use.

Also in the to do list update the links in my personal website regarding past works of holiday cards. Oh well.

Monarch Butterfly tee-shirt 1

Finally got the thing done after many distractions. Actually it was completed weeks ago but only recently got around to posting about it.

It’s a bit of an experiment. I’m using a heat transfer that I designed and for the first time I used it as a guide for airbrushing the artwork.

Pro, it was easy to airbrush light colours on a multi-coloured tee such as this tie dye tee I made a number of years ago. Con, you can’t place frisket or some other paint blockers on to already painted areas on the heat transfer image or you may run into annoyances like peeling paint. With that said with I just repainted those areas that peeled, by hand then reairbrushed the damaged areas.  No problem.  Then I added some very small gems on the antennas for that extra something.  Finally I gave it a few shots of clear coat just to make sure. Hopefully that did the trick for making it last with out scratches for instance.

Over all it looks great but just not sure if I can heat set the design. Still have to figure that one out.

I have another look-a-like in the works and hopefully I can work on it soon. 

Also can be seen on my web site soon.

Tranquil Tropic

New in Miscellaneous; Finally the finishing touches are done on this thing. Its hard to finish things when you have so many other things that occupy your time. I kind of wanted a banner for my boring door and something comforting to look at so I designed this originally in my sketch book, One of many drawings, fixed it up on the computer, blew it up to fit on a piece of cloth I bought at the store and took my time airbrushing it. I later cut a piece of burlap and sewed it on then added a few pieces of bamboo for it to hang from and wallah. Don't you just wish you could just jump in? I'm calling it Tranquil Tropic. Is it a sun set or is it sunrise? It's for you to determine that. The chair is just ready for you to add the towel and lounge in and sip that drink. I was fairly satisfied with it although I think I could have added some more shadows on the bottom part of the stone banisters at least, otherwise I'm pretty satisfied with it.
