Illustration Friday – Talisman
Good morning! For Illustration Friday (yeah, I know it’s Tuesday, I’m late) (and yesterday’s MSCEApril) I’m presenting this lovely little robot, with his flower talisman. To a robot, a flower which grows from the earth must have magical properties!
Digital- commissioned tattoo design.
(Note, please don’t steal – if you’re interested in using this for your own tattoo, please email me and we can work something similar out.)

Illustration "Tuesday" – Subtract
I had a couple of different ideas for Subtract, and basically combined them all in one picture. The subtracted leg, the calculator on his chest… not sure where i was really going with this one! Anyway, not my favorite of the series….it just wasn’t quite what I envisioned. But maybe it will grow on me. Which are your favorites?
Recent Stuff you might have Missed:
More Robot Art, and previews of coming attractions!
My camera is in the shop and I’m dying!… and it’s inhibiting my documenting projects, but stay tuned for these fun things coming up this week & next (once I steal borrow my hubby’s camera):
-My friend Heidi’s tutorial and pattern to make a cute fabric basket.
-Making Sushi… Me and The Boy!
-Finally, a write up on the Limoncello
For today, another robot watercolor. This one is Very Blue. (For some reason, my scanner is making these look really red. Odd. — the bricks are much more muted in the original!) And below that, you can see The Boy’s… Read on…
More in the latest robot watercolor series
Back to the origin roots with this one. I do wonder what they use these hearts for. I’m loving this series — this odd surreal world.
So this was supposed to be my IF for “Intricate”, but I suppose it’s I could stretch it to make it a second “Legendary” (previous). Since it’s my world, I get to make up the legends, right?
Illustration Friday – Breezy – a second one
This was the one i had in my head… didn’t come out exactly as planned, but ya can’t win ‘em all, i guess. I posted one earlier this week that I like better, but doesn’t fit the theme as well.

Oh, and of course, if you adore me bunches, you can always buy some art! Check out the artfire (originals) and imagekind (prints) links in the sidebar. Or just email me if you don’t see what you’re looking for, and skip the middle man!
Also, adoring fans can always stalk… Read on…
New Watercolor: The Creator
A tad geeky and esoteric, yes? With almost a vintage 70′s movie poster feel to me. The Creator is a programmer of sorts, creating life from the simplest binary form. He’d better hope it’s not breezy, or his work could be lost to the sands of time! Yeah, that’s reaching. I’ve got a really cute thing in mind for the Breezy prompt for illustration friday, but I haven’t gotten to it yet. So check back, I’ll be back with a even more inspired piece!

A new watercolor – "Why do Robotic Octopuses Cook?"
I don’t know about you, but when I want to celebrate something, I cook! In a perfect combination of things both robotic and aquatic, I give you the Chef.
PS: The Anti-Valentines Votes are being tabulated… Stay tuned! And I was Valentine’s guest artist for fave webcomic Sluggy Freelance on Saturday, check it out… Oh, one more thing – if you missed it, check out the auction for the Squidee watercolor – All proceeds go to aid in the Australian bushfire relief effort.
Wednesday is Art Day (Illustration Friday – Climbing)
A valentine’s themed watercolor for this week’s IF word of “Climbing”. I drug out the real watercolors for this one – not the photoshop ones. And I remembered why I both love and hate watercolors. I’m not sure exactly the story behind this one. Surrealism, robots, hearts, and even a robotic cupid [included since Diane's Daily Art Stop challenge is Angels and Cupids :) ]
PS – Don’t forget to enter the Anti-Valentines Contest! I’m sure some of my ultra talented art friends can come up with a cool illo — maybe an anti-vday card!?
IF: Contained (Not your average Dot robot)
So sorry for being MIA this weekend. I apparently caught a little bug, but I’m better now. So for Illustration Friday this week, I give you not your average Dot robot (yes, a tad sexier and slinkier), contained, as comic art typically is, in a box.
I love the sketch, but I’ve recolored her 3 times trying to get the right feel –she seems a little too sterile. Still may try another idea.
EDIT:
Here’s a totally different coloring job. Whatcha like better?
Illustration Friday: Similar
It’s my birthday (although I’m refusing to accept it!), and this is what I walked outside to find this morning… Nifty, huh?
Oh, and I finally posted the Holiday Card Art Challenge, ..oops, Past the Entry deadline, go VOTE HERE!
Other nifty stuff:
- My Halloween Creepy Cocktails won a third place prize on Instructables! Totally think these would be cool for Christmas too. Just make red pearls and pair them with a clear or green drink.. Festive! Or white, or blue balls might be cool too!
