What I'm Working on - my tumblr site!

so I think I may have mentioned a while back that I was working on a 365 sketchbook project...and I chose one of my favorite subjects, penguins, as the main inspiration. 

I know it's mid-March by now, but I have been sketching away, and just being too lazy to scan or post...but I'm trying to catch myself up this week...and in the spirit of sharing, here is my first week's worth of posts: http://penguinaday.tumblr.com/

eventually I want to try and color these digitally, but for now they are just plain old pencil, pen and ink!

more penguin love!

how cute is this print by Nicholas Girling!? 

Penguin Awareness Day

did you know, or I guess more appropriately, were you aware that today, January 19th is Penguin Awareness Day?

I was not aware until I was searching the other day for fun activities for January to do with my after school class, but penguins happen to be my favorite animals (tied with fluffy black cats, of course)...

I also hope to start posting soon, the 365 sketch project I started back on January 1st...365 days of penguins!  if my true love for them wasn't apparent...it should be now!  if you can spend every day of the year drawing something, you must have a soft spot for it ;) 

so for your Penguin Awareness Day enjoyment...these adorable cake toppers by Kikuike on Etsy :)

Illustration Friday - Captain

a little sketch I did while on hold today...I don't think I'll have time to color him in before tonight, but I was determined to get a post up again this week- three in a row, hooray! :)

Illustration Friday - Emergency

I actually doodled this little guy at work the other day, before the topic was announced :P It's Dr Penguin to the rescue :)




yay! two weeks in a row...now I just need to keep it up :)
