Below you’ll find my blog posts about various art related activities. This tag is not well kept up and probably contains a lot of old and broken links.

My life is nothing but embroidery
I embroidered all weekend long. Like all day Friday non-stop while I had the day off. Found Unsolved Mysteries (the old Robert Stacks episodes!) on Amazon Prime and just dug in. All day Saturday, just stopped to run out to breakfast with my parents and a few errands (needed more embroidery floss). Sunday morning I took a break to start…

Some art and some embroidery and a day off
I misspelled embroidery in the title and it was “broidery” which I think is the manly bro version of embroidery. So I finished a couple of other art things recently, in that Star Wars series I’ve been doing. First up is Luke I’m pretty happy with how he turned out. And then Han Pretty happy with this one, too. I…

VisionCon Q&A Tonight!
If you want to ask me any kind of costumey question, I’m doing a Q&A over at VisionCon’s facebook page tonight! You can start asking questions at anytime – I’m going to start answering around 7. Here’s the event page! This weekend I’m going to start pulling together costumes for the con – I’ve got a list of stuff I…

some art, some stuff, some dolores
It’s been a long week, I had a dentist appt that I thought would be short and easy and it wasn’t, it totally wiped me out. Not from like, the actual work done, but from the anxiety over it, before and after. Ugh. But I’ve spent all week printing my costume photos in the evenings which has been a lot…

Dolores, Kuwait, and the Sims
It’s a super random post today. First up, I’ve already talked about Carrie Fisher’s passing both on FB and instagram so I’m not going to do it here. I don’t want to talk about it no mo. In happier news we booked our hotel for Celebration. We are going to do 3 days at Disney, 1 at Universal, and 1…

Glinda!
So mom and I have been working on a simplified version of Glinda’s “Popular” dress from Wicked. I keep saying it’s a theater project, but it’s not really for a play – but it’s for a theater related project. Anyway, we went a few weeks ago and picked out fabric, and mom has been working on the skirt. I’m in…

Christmas tree!
So Thursday night Chase had a meeting but I really wanted to decorate the house for Christmas, so I attempted to do it on my own. Everything kinda went ok, I managed to get the tree up by myself and got all the lights on. And then I decided I hated all the lights so, so much. The problem with…

Various art and stuff
Ok really there’s no “and stuff”… it’s just art. But the title seemed too short. First up is this Edith sketch from a month ago. I started colouring a while back but I got bored and haven’t finished it. Don’t know if I will so I thought I’d go ahead and upload it. Maybe I’ll at least finish her hand,…

A weird weekend
This weekend did not go as planned. Friday we were going to go see Fantastic Beasts… but I was still feeling a little under the weather and wanted to save my energy for the con Saturday, so we stayed home. That night, I did finish the Phis and Gracyn that matches the other SunDowner character refs I did a few…

Some more art
I finished up the other two Disney princesses the last couple of days: Cinderella, meh, she was my least fav of the 4 I did. Snow White. I’ve also gotten all of the art pages/galleries finished and updated so if you wander into the art link in the menu above, it should be easier to navigate. As soon as we…

Is it Disney time yet???
So Friday and I had my “re-do” of my doctor’s appointment from earlier in the year – the one I had the panic attack at and they sent me away! No panic attacks this time. BP was still high but not as bad as last time. It’s over and done with for a year! But I for the past couple…

the word “sketch” holds no meaning
Like literally over the past few days I’ve typed the word “sketch” so many times to tag posts that it no longer looks like a legitimate word, it looks weird and wrong. SKETCH SKETCH SKETCH But I’m all done going back through the archives of my blog and adding in all the old stuff. Enjoy at your own risk and…

A Gigantic Dump of Artwork
So I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I knew I had “a couple” of sketchbooks in the attic at my parents, that I’d seen them once when I had to go up there a few months ago. I wanted to go over and grab them and see what was in them, mostly driven by knowing that some of…

A whole lot of stuff
So I was planning on getting all this stuff done this weekend – clean up the house, repack for Disney, do a bunch of laundry… did I get any of it done? No, not a bit. Instead, I watched way too much “Say Yes to the Dress,” went a con, did a photoshoot, went to the Elmwood Twilight Tour, and…

a redraw, a redo
Still going back through the archives, fixing old posts, making them public, categorizing them and adding headers… currently about half way thru 2002. I’m hoping maaaaaaybe I’ll be done before I go out of town! I know I’ve talked a lot of website, old stuff, old art, etc lately, because that’s what I’ve been filling my time with — I’m…

3 Half-Assed Galadriels
So to pick up where I left off last week — I obviously ended up being SO GLAD we rescheduled our trip since our party canceled and the parks shut down on Friday! We’d have only had 1 park day and 1.5 days of stuck at Pop Century!! It still sucks missing my cousins but it looks like they still…

down the rabbit hole
So anyway, to continue where I left off the previous post… The rabbit hole is never ending. I went BACK through all my old backup files last night, looking for more old stuff. I managed to scrape up the majority of my old pre-blogger “Free talks” from 1998, though I can’t find much from 1999 — there’s a big chunk…

SunDowner
Several of you guys have asked me if I still have SunDowner online. I’ve been promising to throw it up on my site soon… but I just haven’t gotten around to it. The problem is that my name is on eeeeeeeeeeverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrything (and I’ve worked hard to not use that name online anymore), so I don’t really want them public just…

Lots of art stuff today
Sorry I haven’t posted recently, I’ve really been buckled down trying to finish up the website! I’m almost there! First off, here’s some more from the SW art project… POE! I was blessed with a good reference for this for his face. I really like how it came out. BB8! I said I wasn’t going to do the droids but……

Where did I leave off?
Let’s see, what art have I not posted yet? Han! I’m pretty pleased with this one. Oola. I’m ambivalent. It was hard to find good, clear references at the angle I wanted. Aayla! I like this one. It was fun. Anakin… not crazy about it. I left it alone for a couple of days before coming back to finish it…
