New Moon Bear set

Now out New Moon Bear set. I actually finished this one months ago but just decided to share it now. I decided to delay sharing this version because of personal use at a new "merch store" I'm trying out and experimenting and I wanted first crack at it. Its mine after all. 😉
The original version was a sketch I made years ago probably while bored or on a break onsite. I then illustrated it in traditional form and made a small Photoshop file for use on my personal site years ago. And now its also available in clip art vector form and in my new "murch store". Links will be provided below the illustrated sample/link. 

😷Masks ⏰Child's clock ⌚Child's watch 👕Child's sleep shirt 💠Poster 🎁Blanket and there's more......

Please note that the website priced these for my products and not me.

Proceeds go to the ending of mooching off my parents and gaining my own house and out of my parents. 😉 In other words helps to pay off expenses. Thank you! 😊

Pansies in progress

Another flower based post I guess. This time a work in progress. 
Currently working on an airbrushed image to go on a fitted sheet. Problem is that when I originally purchased the sheet I was expecting it to be a cloth even if it was mostly polyester. When I opened it up was more like a shower curtain.😕 Oh well, so it forced me to do more steps then I originally planed. So I airbrushed on a separate white cloth. Its going to be sewn on to the fitted sheet later.
First I just free handed my desired images. Then airbrushed them. No masking. Just penciled in. They’re a group of pansies. But I won’t bother cutting them out of the excess material. Just going to sew it on. Its only for me after all. 

small personal site update.

Oops another mistake. I forgot to upload the leopard patch pics into my personal website. But they're up now along with the newly uploaded images of my homemade Easter card 2019. Enjoy!😊

Home made Easter card 2019

Oops looks like I made a small "boo boo" in the last one or two postings of my monarch butterfly series. But they're all fixed now and the mistake was not a big deal but it would have bugged me to no end. 

Now for some spring time fun. An Easter card I made last year for a friend. Al little late but it still is technically spring. Its fun to look at none the less. But then there are Christmas related things to boost moral being shown too in different media forms so who cares? And besides if I don't I may never show it off. It just accumulates and all that. Also will be showing soon, other card creations with various degrees of fun.😊

  Also some envelope art a bumble bee holds a basket and other Easter symbols. 🔺

 

 The card cover art. A bumble bee with a basket of eggs and real pressed flowers. 

Some more art in the card featuring another bumble bee and more pressed flowers. 

Created the card with real flowers I collected the previous year. Some snap dragons and some type of blueish flower that later turned more purple when I pressed and glued them to cardboard to make them more workable.  Other media used, water colours, markers, coloured pencils. Cardboard and construction paper used as well as watercolour paper with texture. I tried to stick to bright colours instead of overusing the colour black for the obvious bee stripes. 
I hope you like it. 😊

Monarch butterfly 2 extra

Now out monarch butterfly 2 extra. JPG only non scalable version. But just as beautiful. As always to be featured in my personal web site soon. 
Also another online portfolio bites the dust for me too cause they decided to now charge a usage fee. No biggy. There are still plenty of quality online port providers out there. Its a big pond after all. It was just a backup port anyhow. But none the less I saved all of my info in other words a back up from that place and now I can move to a new spot. 😏😉

Monarch Butterfly 1 Extra

First of all I just want to say is Please Stay safe. This virus is no joke. Stay indoors and don't go out. Even better do some praying for your fellow man. The least you can do since there are no Easter celebrations this year in a physical building. But we can still celebrate and do some honor in our own vessel for our fellow man. 

Anyhow here is the Extra version of MB1 JPG only form, designed as an option cause you can make it like this in order for it to be a true vector. 

Uploaded now

Now out in my personal web site. Monarch Butterfly set 2. You know the way. The side menu. 😉

Monarch Butterfly Set 2

Now out Monarch Butterfly Set 2. This version features the previous butterfly only now the butterfly is feeding on a cluster of butterfly bush/weed flowers. Very lovely orange coloured blossoms. If you can see them in real life, its really something special. Especially when you see other insects other then just butterflies feeding on them. 

 See previous.

Now featured in my personal web site after a bit of delay due to being under the weather and other acts of nature.  Just go to the side menu and enter. 😊

Monarch-butterfly set 1

A little something for the coming spring and summer season. These little guys will soon be migrating up north once again. I designed these by studying many pics of reference sources. I would take a few pics my self but so far my timing is pretty lousy. Plus I had made a few of these illustrations in the past too for other purposes. So also decided to take advantage of all of that and make a vector illustration version. There are other versions of this too and will be showing them in future coming posts. Enjoy.😊

Leopard patch

   I have this purse and I only had it for a few years. This is the type of purse that's a bit on the pricey side of things and I really didn't feel like getting rid of it so soon. So I did a bit of exploring to see what type of patches are out there. Didn't exactly like what I saw. Lots and lots of cheep looking Chinese made patches. Probably only worth 50'cents or lower but sold at a 5 bucks a pop or higher at a fabric shop. Looked in other stores too but the selection was even worse. So I decided to make my own. I first looked at what I had, did some thinking, some more exploring at craft stores est and then looked at my purse some more. Thought to my self. Lets make paw prints and a lounging leopard. I mean why not? I already had found a discarded umbrella cover I saved in my junk box with that same theme to cover up some buckles that always seemed to come apart on my purse. 
So I quickly drew up a cute lounging leopard on some tracing paper. I used tracing paper or parchment paper to first plot out all those holes on my purse. So that's why the leopard is lounging the way it is. The paw prints were for the holes that weren't so close together. So anyways I drew my leopard pattern on the pattern of mapped out holes. Then I found parts of some old jeans. They were remnants that I also saved earlier for these types of purposes too. Comes in very handy. 
I then drew out some paw prints and that leopard on to the scraps of jean materials. I ended up drawing out 3 paws and the leopard. Later I painted them up with some acrylic fabric paint using a regular old brush. I used mostly browns and yellow. Nothing fancy because that would come later. I ended up purchasing some fake plastic jewellery findings mostly shiny gold colour and another sheet of multi coloured gems cause I couldn't just get the right green ones that were the right size for the eyes. Just as well I can save those for another project. So anyways I sewed them all on my now coloured up patches. When finished I gave them a good clear coating for added protection. Later pilfered some "Shoe Glue" from my dad and then cut off the remaining jean material that remained on my embellished shapes. I find "Shoe glue" really great and handy stuff to patch on patches on to things. 
And here you have the finished product. Hope you like it. 😊

Turkey card

Now posted in my personal web site the blue sweater with shinny stars. 

Butttt oh what's this a lovely card I made last year with a Thanks Giving theme. 
I felt bad last year for missing my friends birthday so I made her this lovely card featuring this makeshift turkey in the tradition of children's craft art. OK they usually make it out of a hand prints but this is like the whimsical version for grown ups. 
I used a fancy fall leaf from a Chinese/Japanese maple as the tail. The leaf was preserved last year. Then I took scraps of construction paper shaped it in to the other parts of the turkey. Before I glued them on, I coloured patterns of feathers, face and other things that you would see on a turkey with coloured pencil and markers. I glued them all on a scrap of water coloured paper cut and folded in to a nice card, but not folded in the usual way. Picture a wet floor sign. I kind of was going for something different anyways. Pretty pleased with the whole results. Needless to say she was quite pleased too. And oh yeah I did remember to give her a nice card (another home made)this year for her birthday. I made sure I didn't forget. Wrote it on all kind of calendars and it does help to make things a head of time too. 
Anyways Happy Thanks Giving 🌰🍗Canadian version. But its also good for the American version too. 😁

Stars on my sweater.

Once again here we are in sweater season and still finishing up on the many things I had to do this year with my yard. Not to mention all that house work. I do it all by my self mostly after all.
Anyways here is this simple but lovely fixed up sweater. Well its not entirely used but something my mom couldn't wear I guess, so she gave it to me. I couldn't just leave it be, cause for one thing it made me feel awkward. Well you know "grandma wear?" Anyways I just didn't sew it all together and make this sweater. But none the less I did kind of sew on a pattern of stars on it cause well the blue reminded me of a dark blue sky that stars would love to be in. Also I had this really nice sparkly yarn just calling to me to make something of it. And here it is. I know I should have used one of those round sewing hoops to keep things steady and then the stars would have been more uniform. Oh well lets just call them more on the abstract side. Its still a nice sweater anyways. 
Next post, a nice Thanks Giving card made last year. As always will post this in my personal web site when I can. 

Quick link annoucement.

The original featured much more tomatoes and more such as flowers and a container it was growing in. Also other stuff too.

Neon Lights Barber Shop 7

Here it is the final installment of the Neon Lights Barber shop sets. 
Currently working on an Easter themed vector. It was a set type I worked on before but with a different theme then the chicken version. It probably won't be completed by Easter at least the phase 2 part but at least phase one I'm hoping to complete before Good Friday at least. Its pretty intricate and that's why it takes unusually long to complete. But patience will be rewarded.
