One of the best commissions I ever had was to create the new Alice in wonderland Characters

One of the most fun jobs or commissions I had was the new Alice in wonderland

The biggest challenge was I had to make one & a stencil the teens to be able to trace & make their own. Another challenge was in the new movie the Cheshire cat’s strips sort of glowed. Have you ever tried Martha’s glitter? This is not children’s glitter, it is glitter for the art gods. Here he is almost finished. He still stays in the art room at Temple. The only finished photo him finished is with Hobbes laying on him. I had to draw Alice, the Mad Hatter, The red Queen. The Cheshire cat beat them all as far as loving what I’m doing.

They are bookends, they are safety in numbers, they are family

To have these amazingly sweet, furry teddy bears love you beyond measure, is to know true love. The gray & white was a rescue. The pound got her & her brother & both had one week to live. But the people who work at the pound know breeds, if there is a rescue for the breed, they call. Alabama Siberian Rescue put Nala on facebook & I filled out the foster form. She was with us two weeks & we were told that I have to put information & photograph her for Facebook. So that she may find her forever home. But her last name was Saab? She fit our family like a glove. She lives in my studio while I work. Sleeps in my room at night.
The big white dog, Blue was a departing gift for me while he was to be deployed. He was there so I had someone to protect me, love me, let me hold him. They are our bookends & they hold us together. Before you look for a special breed, please check to see if the breed you like has any homeless rescues that you can love.
