What I'm working on...

I'm working a new (to me) printmaking technique for my latest project. It's called a jigsaw print. I've cut out different areas of a soft-cut block so that I can print two colors at the same time. I've put a few other images on my just pencil on paper blog, so head over there to see more.

Creative Check-in!

Hi All!  I've been on sabbatical from the SLC blog while I figure out this new baby and toddler thing.  I've had a few brief moments of free creativity between them and my freelance jobs.  Here is a piece I created last night for a friend's new baby girl.  Hop over to my blog to check out some detail shots!

The past few weeks have been pretty crazy for me.  I've been trying to get a bunch of drawings together to send out as samples.  Between that and the end of the school year craziness, I feel like I haven't had much time to breathe.  But, samples are sent, end of school craziness is still upon me, but it feels more manageable, so I'm taking this opportunity to take a deep breath .... Ahhhhh.

Scratchboard squirrels skating

I finally finished this scratchboard illustration of skating squirrels. I used an 8" x 10" piece of inked clayboard, scratchboard tools, and an x-acto knife. I found the knife worked the best for fine lines. I really like the medium but it tends to be very time consuming.
