Studio Shot

Quick pick of two hams in my very messy studio.
If you look very closely you can see my Lord of the Rings Pez set, my "40" tiara, and a copy of TDAC.

Queen Charlotte

Queen Charlotte (1744-1818) was the wife of George III. They had 15 children during their marriage (13 survived into adulthood) and were fairly happy (aside from the extremely meddling mother-in-law.) 


Charlotte developed a close friendship with Marie Antoinette and the two, having never met face to face, wrote to each other quite frequently. Upon the outbreak of the French Revolution, Charlotte prepared apartments for the refugee royal family of France- but they never came.

Mood/Trend Boards

I've been doing a lot of mood and trend boards lately- it's INSANELY fun. I love it as much as I love illustrating or product development. I have the pleasure of putting together 10 trend boards for 2013/2014 home and garden gift- this assignment has inspired me to start rethinking my own house. A decor overhaul is in the works!

One of my clients asked me to put together some mood boards for their office redesign. Here are 3 options that were presented. Which do you like?

Getting from point A to point B.

I've sent this "map" in to They Draw and Travel- but I'm a little worried that I used the term "map"way too loosely... lol. It was fun to do, and got my mind off my ridiculously high tax bill.
