Floral Card

There's quite a plethora of birthdays at this time of year, apparently. Here's a floral themed card that I whipped up this morning.

Bastille Day Birthday

Today is Bastille Day, but more importantly, it is the birthday of two people I know. I made this birthday card for one of them.

Thank you card

Our baby just turned one. Here's a Thank You card I made for his one year birthday. Better go write those thank you notes now.

Pride and Prejudice the Comic Book, Page 23 - 27

Pride and Prejudice the Comic, Page 23, originally uploaded by ArtGhost.

I finally posted another chapter of the Pride and Prejudice Comic Book over at Flickr. I apologize for not replacing the text with more legible text in the rest of the pages, but if you look at the image and click "all sizes," you can access the larger and much easier to read size.

Here's the link to all the pages I have done so far: http://www.flickr.com/photos/artghost/sets/72157594246119693/

Meanwhile, Marvel has beaten me to it, and has published their own Pride and Prejudice, which is not surprising given the fact that it's taken me about 9 years to get through approximately a quarter of the book. You can read the first issue of the Marvel comic for free here: http://marvel.com/digitalcomics/titles/PRIDE_%26_PREJUDICE.2009.1

Feed Your Soul - Free Art Project

Jen Wallace of Indie Fixx started a new project, Feed Your Soul. It's a site where you can download and print art for free!

I contributed the image below. It's Persephone - sort of a celebration of the arrival of Spring. You can go to the Feed Your Soul site to download a high resolution PDF of the image.

Tosa and Lix, Number 5, "Monkey Business"

I discovered a forgotten episode of the hit comic, "Tosa and Lix" on my computer. Their wacky adventures continue in "Monkey Business."


Previous episodes of Tosa and Lix can be seen here:

Indie Fixx Galleria - Spring

Here's my latest completed project: an image for the Indie Fixx Galleria, this time updated for Spring:

Happy Valentine's Day!

Forgotten promo piece

Here's an image that I was working on for a promotional piece that I had forgotten about. Actually, I still like it, and I'll probably end up finishing it off and using it... one of these days.

Indie Fixx Galleria illustration

I'm back at work, and ArtGhost is back up!
Here's an illustration I did for the holidays for Indie Fixx Galleria.

And here's some of my rough drawings for the project:

Taking a break...

If you are wondering why I haven't made any blog posts for months, well, it's because I'm pregnant and haven't had much time to devote to the blog. We will be having a baby next week, so we'll be taking a break for the summer. I hope to be back in the fall, but, we'll see what happens...

Recent Project: Dating Pool

I recently completed an album cover for The Dating Pool, a local Seattle band.

More pictures from Redux Show

Here's another couple of pieces from our recent show at Redux:

More mermaids

Here's another image from our show currently at Redux.

Recent Project: Indie Fixx Logo

Here's a recently completed project - a logo for Indie Fixx. I recently did Jen's images for the Indie Fixx shop, and she wanted to redesign the logo to match.

Show at Redux PDX

We have a show open at Redux in Portland starting on February 1st. The show mainly features thrift store paintings that have been re-appropriated.

Print for the Sampler!

We created a collaborative print with The Sampler for the February Sampler. It's a limited run of 250. You can get one in the Sampler Shop! By the way, I am totally into mermaids and narwhals right now.

Cute Kitties

Well, my email seems to be all fixed. In celebration, here are some cute kitties.

Work in progress

It's been so long since I posted anything, so here's a work in progress. We just finished moving to a new house, and we're booked up with illustration work through the end of the year, so we will be busy.

We have two shows coming up next year as well - we'll have our work at Redux in Portland in February, and at Trabant in Pioneer Square in Spring.

Indie Fixx Shop is now open!

Here's a recently completed project: the illustrations for the Indie Fixx Shop. I previously worked with Jen on her logo for Tickle Fancy, and then she asked me to create some illustrations for her new shop! It's filled with a variety of wonderful handmade items from independent designers, so go check it out. As always, I encourage everyone to buy handmade for the holidays, and the Indie Fixx Shop is a great place to start.
