Cheshire

The Cheshire

Start of the boy's series to compliment the Ladies of Wonderland set.

CandyLand

So as you may know (you should know!) that our theme for this next couple weeks is Candy Land! I went to Target in the blind hope that they'd have the original I loved so much,but alas, all they had was the new version. Im not sure why a game like Candy Land needed updating, but whatever. My biggest gripe is how they changed and got rid of some of the characters. They didn't change the game any it seems, but just totally revamped random people, and in doing such, turned the prettiest character into some weird ice skater!

RIP Frostine.

Anyway, they did have THIS which I thought was kind of cool for preschools or whatever. The game board and game has been contained within this plastic form that is shaped much like a book, so that the teachers can clean it up, close it, and just put it on the shelf amongst the other games made like this (of which they had a whole variety)

I did think this was a pretty cool idea as it'll make the shelves look much cleaner and the games are almost guaranteed a longer life span. So that was a proper upgrade.

So in other news, here is where i'm at for my candy land drawing:

Bi-Weekly Draw Fest: Candyland

Next theme is "Candyland!"

Not necessarily the game but I wanted to bring to mind that sort of just childish fun visual so I decided to go with that name for the theme.

Size: 9 x 12

Specifics: Anything candy related, preferably along the lines of it being a whole other world..

Due: Feb 10th

Notes: Have fun with it!

Every time I get close to you...

So this is the art I created for Kathy. I hope she likes it...I'm interested in seeing how the Giclee prints turn out. I got a notice today that they were shipped this morning FedEx Ground so I should get them approximately....never, lolz. Or so is the word around the water cooler.

I really hope she likes it though. It gave me unexpected problems throughout the process, which was random, lolz. I busted the drawing out without any complications whatsoever, but then when I went to paint I had giant "*points at paper* NANI!?" moments, lolz. I put the words in there cause...they worked! Her face was like, "is she sad, is she happy, what is she? WHAT?"
and that was the end result -____-

I've had a slow couple days due to some uh, obsessive behaviors >> but I'm hoping to get it back together today xD I finished the ink for my Cheshire (finally, ahaha... ) and hope to get it painted if I don't get too retarded in the process. I also started a Mad Hatter but that was epic fail for some reason so I may play with that some more, as I don't wanna do much of anything on Bi-Weekly until its open to everyone. Don't wanna be unfair!

Anyway...click the title for a wonderful video and rather relaxing song. =]
