Illustration Friday - Spring

Spring illustration by Liz Wong
It's our first spring out in the suburbs, and birds start chirping at an insane hour of the morning. I always used to love birds, but I guess that was when I didn't acutally have any around. Still, the birds are much better than drunk people outside yelling at 2 in the morning, and construction at 7 am. Yeah, I guess I'll take the birds.

More monsters

Aw, cyclops... he's a cute little fella!



Whatever you do, do not sit next to this guy at a bar. You'll never escape; he has a million stories about his old seafaring days.

Not my week

My rants for today:

1. Why do people feel the need to be rude to customer service professionals? My day job is providing customer service. I'm just trying to do my job. Being rude to me will not help encourage me to give you the student discount for which you don't even qualify for in the first place. It just makes us all upset for no reason.

So everyone, when you are upset at a business, keep in mind that the customer service people are usually not the ones responsible. Be nice to them. I will usually go above and beyond for nice people. I will not try to accomodate the mean people.

2. Somehow, I have been particularly targeted for fraud lately. The latest scheme was someone trying to purchase paintings from me; they sent a check for $1200 more than they were supposed to, issued from a Catholic Church (wha??), and wanted me to cash the check and pass on the paintings and the extra money to their shipping agent.

No, that's not suspicious! By the way, if you are going to try to rip me off, don't make me give you my paintings, too. I worked hard on those! They are one of a kind, people!

Show at ArtStar

Painting by Liz Wong
We have an exhibition opening on February 18th at Art Star in Philadelphia, PA. Go check it out if you are in the area! Here's one of the new paintings for the show, part of a series of recruitment posters for the Girl's Revolutionary Army. This painting is entitled "Our Agents Are Everywhere." I was originally going to call it "Everywhere there are signs the revolution is already begun," but it seemed a bit wordy.

Illustration Friday - Sea


It's been raining a lot here lately - it's rained for 23 days straight, or something like that. We're close to setting a record. Eric called me at work and told me the basement was flooding. This is what I pictured. He claimed that he rode around on the whale until his hand got stuck in the blowhole. But, this is closer to the reality of the situation:

Except that we don't have a duck.

Flavor - for Illustration Friday. I've been eating a lot lately, and not exercising at all. I went on a little sugar binge today.

Illustration Friday - Holiday

holiday illustration for illustration friday
I was looking at all the Christmas lights on my way home tonight. We didn't put up any Christmas decorations at all this year. The people on our block must think we are a bunch of Scrooges.

art stash

This is a cool blog about the arts scene in Seattle, especially street art and some of the more interesting things going on in town. Maybe I'll have to actually get out more and see some things.

By the way, I spent the entire day in my pajamas yesterday.
