Lady Bug Circus

Banned Book

The Kirkland, WA library is having a show of altered banned juvenile lliterature. The library gave each artist a banned book to read, artfully alter- rendering it unreadable and asked the artists to make a statement about banned books.I was given The Perks of Being a Wallflower, by Stephen Chbosky. I loved this book, it was heart breakingly sad, humorous and poignant. The main character, Charlie was someone I wished I had known when I was in high school.

Here is Charlie as a wallflower and here he is watching cartoons with his aunt, when he was little.

Importance of a Sketch Book

This piece still needs a few more nails and some edging. In this scan you can't see the pink inside her mouth, or how shiny her lips and dress are.

This is mostly done too, just needs some edging. These are from drawings in the sketch book I carry. It's so important to have a sketch book on hand. It makes better use of studio time.

So much to do and so little time.
