Made this in Illustrator! Believe it or not, I actually use Flash for most of my illustrations. I think I will be using Illustrator a bit more in the future!

I have decided to attempt at becoming an actuall illustrator who makes a living off of it! So this is something I hope is good enough for an illustrators portfolio. Any suggestions? I swear I won't get my feelings hurt!


Made using illustrator on my tablet pc. Texture added with photoshop.

Just Enough Flowers

Vector in Flash textures in Photoshop

When I make my self sit down and illustrate for a few hours this is what happens! :)

Meet Rambo

Meet the newest addition to my family... Rambo! He is a full breed Blue Pitbull and also verrrry very cuute! Our house was almost broken into a few weeks ago so we decided a pitbull would be the best security system and of course a really good friend!

Wrinkles

Moving

My husband is graduating and got a new job! So that means I am going to be VERY busy packing up all of our belongings and getting ready for the big move. Im excited but a little worried because it will be such a huge change for my husband. For me it is not so big of a change because it is the town I grew up in. Wish me good luck!

Illo made in flash
