Sophie, the Magnificent Ball-Playing Spider

Sophie knew she was different as soon as she was exposed to the basketball court. Ever since then, her life has been contented by the hope and promise of another game after school's done.

She never has trouble with volunteers to be on her team but finding her opponents is a completely different story.

More times than not, this happens. The other team runs away at the sight of her. Poor Sophie...

Home of the Mousies

This is the Mousey residence. They just moved in this month and they love visitors so stop by anytime!

Teeny and Tiny

These two Elephants are Teeny and Tiny. Tiny has a little man resting on his trunk much to his surprise. When I drew his eyes, I realized he had to be looking down for some reason and that's where the little man comes in.

Teeny is walking away so the little man must have insulted him in some way...Elephants are very proud creatures you know.

Henry the Dragon

This is Mark Kistler style dragon. His name is Henry and he's enjoying the warmth of the sun in his high climate. He's a very easy-going dragon and the friendliest of his family. So I felt he deserved a picture of his very own.

Make Cupcakes Not War

This is also for my "Cupcake" trade. I found the saying somewhere and as soon as I saw it I cracked up! So I've been storing it in the back of my brain until the appropriet time arose for its use.

I really liked the cup part. I water colored the cup by wetting my brush and taking the color right off the WC pencil. For the lighter stripes I colored a white line with the WC pencil right on the drawing so it would stand out a little more.

Cupcake Love

When I signed up for my "Cupcake" ATC trade I knew I wanted to make little cartoon ones with faces and as I drew them, I decided to make them hold hands. Then I put a heart around them and loved it.

And for extra effect, I put a pattern to outline them (two dots, one line). So here it is! I think it's my favorite card that I've made so far!
