 Halloween 2008

This illustration was made for a holiday card, but it seems to fit this week’s Illustration Friday topic: “repair.” There sure are enough things in need of repair here! Click to enlarge.

I hope everyone has a very safe and fun Halloween!

Illustration Friday: Late

Running Late

OK, I can relate a little too well to this week’s Illustration Friday topic! Still a bit off my game with these from my crazy end-of-summer but I managed a quick doodle at the last minute. In all honesty, although I do push it sometimes and tend to finish projects at the last minute, I almost always finish them on time. Unfortunately for my husband, I can’t say the same about getting home in time for dinner!

Because of the topic, I’ll even post the sketches I started for last week’s Illustration Friday word, “strings.” These are beyond late, I’m afraid, as they never made it past the sketch stage in time to post them.

Illustration Friday: Sugary

Sweetness!

Mmmmmm, the inspiration for this week’s Illustration Fridaytopic was served at my office yesterday for someone’s birthday and it was delicious! I don’t even like cherry-flavored things but this chocolate cake was sooo rich and yummy I had to have a piece.

I’ve been surrounded by sugary things lately. Between the wedding and baby shower I was involved with there’s been a lot of cake lately (and I suspect there’s more cake at the office again tomorrow….) Now I’m trying to get back on the wagon - both for my nutrition and for this sadly-neglected blog. I did sketches for a couple of the weeks of Illustration Friday I missed, but nothing even worth posting. There’ll be more soon!
