Illustration Friday "Quiet"

For those who don't have children, you won't understand the tremendous meaning behind the word quiet. Quiet as in, no more crying, quiet as in "shhh" the baby is sleeping, and quiet as in, those moments when he lays in your arms, innocent, beautiful, and angelic. This is my sleeping son.

Illustration Friday "Flavor"

For some reason, when I read the subject, "Flavor" I thought of flavored lip gloss. So-I think this girlie exhibits juicy, flavorful lips. I rendered this first with Prismacolor watercolor pencils, added water, then added detail with chalk pastels. When the image was dry, I went back in with the colored pencils and chalk. I thought about cropping her, but I kind of like the way the sketchbooks fits into the composition.
