Last painting of 2010: Inspiration

By cherry | Published: December 31, 2010

My final painting of 2010! Of course it’s been a year of robots and cephalopods so it’s only appropriate to end on a similar note to that we started on.

New show submission

By cherry | Published: December 15, 2010

Today I’m updating very briefly to show you two pieces that I created for the Dirty Show in Detroit after my friend Kristen let me know about it. I just submitted them now, so we’ll see if they get picked up or not. It was really fun to paint for a show that’s all about erotica. It was outside of what I’d normally illustrate so it was a really great challenge – especially for dealing with the male form which I haven’t really tackled yet.

Sketchbook Snapshot 22.04.10

By cherry | Published: April 22, 2010

Another three week long trip and two conventions took me away from my desk for a while! I was a bit disappointed in my lack of time/motivation to sketch while on the road. I’m going to put it all down to it being a stressful trip of sorts, but I plan to do my best to prevent that from happening in the future.

Much to the disdain of my high school art teacher I used to only want to work in pen and ink.

I Couldn’t Hold on To Them

It’s not perfect, but it’s something that helped me work through an overwhelming feeling of fragility this week. Life goes on, eh?

So fragile

By cherry | Published: March 4, 2010

I was feeling very saddened by certain events and when I realised I was consoling myself by sketching my bird skull collection I had to laugh.
