Star Gazer

As I gaze up at the stars,
I realize that where ever you are,
You can look up and spy,
A star hiding in the sky.

Contemplation

Thinking,
Dreaming,
Wishing,
Scheming.

Elven Princess

Pen, ink, and watercolor (well... Derwent Inktense) pencils.

Elf Tree

Harken!
Ye who would dare enter here!
Beneath the trees in shadow deep,
There is naught that you should seek,
To come further would waste your time,
So stay back; the trees are mine.

Autumn Queen

As the leaves come swirling down,
It is time to make my crown,
Of leaves gold, and brown, and red,
Twisted together around my head.

Reindragon (not Reindeer)

Santa's sleigh is not pulled by reindeer... but rather reindragons.

Masquerade

Behind this mask
beneath my facade,
this girl will simply
masquerade.
Pretend one thing,
while really another,
until the time's right
to show her true color.

Pomeranian

Cute and fluffy
Sweet and cuddly,
But loud and yappy.
What am I?
You guessed it -- a pomeranian!

And yes... it is a pomeranian.

Chief Wind Runner

One of my friends from Art Camp, turned into a fictional cahracter.

Air

Gone.
With the Wind,
And a song
In your heart,
We must part,
Find a way,
Want to stay,
But cannot,
Not to be,
You must go,
And be Free.

Water

Gone.
With the Sea,
And a spring
In your step,
Cross the sea
Bring back tales
Of the lands
Where you've gone
Then come back
And please share,
Your story.

Fire

Gone.
With the Flame,
And a sword
In your hand,
Strike the iron
While it's hot,
Free the slaves,
Be the knight
In your tale,
Do what's right,
Set them Free.

Earth

Gone.
With the Earth,
And a warmth
In your soul,
Heal the hurt,
Soothe the pain,
Bring some peace
To the land,
Help the weak
Make them strong
Help them see.

Spirit

Gone.
With the Spirit
And a thought
In your mind,
Go and blaze
A new trail,
Do not bend
To others' wills,
Do not sway,
Hold the course,
And be Free.

Pickles

Pickles loves PICKLES!!!!!!!!!!!! ; )

Open Song

Just a little drawing I did in art class the other day... colored pencil on black paper. The instrument is a cello, which I used to play until I broke my finger playing soccer, and decided to give it up for soccer.

Death of a Snowman

I thought I missed summer... but now I want the icy winds of winter back!

The Necklace

Necklace
Simple, elegant
Sparkling, stunning, missing
Shining impostor, beauty tells not worth

If anyone's familiar with The Necklace, then you're familiar with what the idea of this poem's about. If not, read The Necklace, by Guy de Maupassant.

Scratch Board Cheshire Cat

Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland on black and white scratch board.

Winged Snow Leopard Scratch Board (Color)

A winged snow leopard I did on silver scratch board in art class. I don't think that scratch boards and scanners should mix... just look at the quality.

Winged Snow Leopard Scratch Board (Gray-Scale)

Again, the quality ain't what it is in real life, but it'll do...

Cat and Pond Silver Scratch Board

The quality isn't great, but with a little computer tweaking, it still looks okay...

Jake

My friend Jake from art class.

Joey

My friend Joey.

Archer

I'd hate to be on the recieving end of that arrow!

Juliet and Paris

No... the guy on the ground is not Romeo... Juliet didn't reject Romeo, remember? If you look closely, Juliet is already holding a rose from Romeo... and Paris is crying.

Print Plate (Engraved side)

The engraved side of the print plate I used to make my prints. The ink smeared, so it's not very clear.

Print Plate (Un-Engraved side)

The un-engraved side, which lacks ink smears and is a smoother surface to scan, thus the better quality of the image.

Juliet's Dragon 3/8

My best black and white copy of my print "Juliet's Dragon." My prints were all made from my larger work "Juliet and Paris," but considering that Paris didn't make it onto the printing plate and the dragon did, I renamed my print's "Juliet's Dragon." It was the third print I made out of the eight total.

Juliet's Dragon 4/8

My third best black and white copy of my print "Juliet's Dragon," which I then water-colored. My prints were all made from my larger work "Juliet and Paris," but considering that Paris didn't make it onto the printing plate and the dragon did, I renamed my print's "Juliet's Dragon." It was the fourth print I made out of the eight total.

Juliet's Dragon 5/8

My second best black and white copy of my print "Juliet's Dragon," which I then water-colored. Easily my favorite print out of them all. My prints were all made from my larger work "Juliet and Paris," but considering that Paris didn't make it onto the printing plate and the dragon did, I renamed my print's "Juliet's Dragon." It was the fifth print I made out of the eight total.

Cheetah I

An old art project I recently relocated. There's another part to it (shown below)...

Cheetah II

... and here it is!

Watercolor and Ink

Another old project. Yes, the wolves are bigger than the trees...

Leap of Truth

The scanner cut off Tigger's head!

No... the tiger isn't really named Tigger... it just reminds me of him.

Any-hoo, the scanner cut of the tiger's head, so that's why it's decapitated.

Cat Mask

A small cat mask I made in art class a while back... the hand is to show a comparison for size. I used metallic brown glaze for the entire thing, I think...Nope! I used Tahitian Blue for the eyes and flower by it's ear, and red for the inside of the ears and nose... but the metallic brown sorta took over everything though...

Peace!

Dragon Mask (Profile)

Again, the hand is for size comparison only. This is a bigger dragon mask that I also did in art class a while back.

Dragon Mask (Front)

Same mask, but a front view instead of side view. I used Sea Mist glaze for the face, Metallic Brown for the horns, Leaf Green (I think...) for the blaze and crest, Royal Blue for the swirls (but that is almost the same color as the Sea Mist) and Tahitian Blue on the eyes.

Maybelle

The main character in a story I may or may not write. She is 15, moody, a generally bratty pain in the butt, and a witch from Chicago.

Jessie

One of my favorite book characters I've made up, ever. She is a demon (of the good intentioned variety) and loosely based off my sister.

Russell and Isabelle

Two book characters I made up. They are six year old twins, and Maybelle's little siblings.

Daisy

Yet another book character I made up.

Shauna

And another book character I made up. This'un's a bad'un.

Gloaming

This is the main villain from the story I may or may not get around to writing. She is the daughter of the Greek goddess of chaos, Eris.

Believe

The initials on the bottom corner are hard to red, but they're still there!

Initials

I think that the title makes it obvious...

Random Doodle Page

It's a random doodle page!

Oh, Crap

This is my to do list. This is why I don't upload very often!

Dragon

I'm gonna name her Synge...

Sleep of the Dreamer

Not supposed to be anyone in particular, I was just tired and drawing someone asleep seemed like a really good idea at the time.

Zunami

This is Nami (short of Zunami), a little baby GIRL dragon, not a dinosaur, not a cat, and NOT a boy dragon!

She has a taste for cookies and destruction.
