More than a week...


















...without an update—yikes. The days are flying by as we continue to navigate through a mine field of paperwork in preparation for moving at the end of the Summer (the paperwork comes from the fact that we are being forced by a nearby airport to move; they want all the properties on our street in order to expand. They can do this, legally, thanks to the law of eminent domain.)

Anyway, here's something I did a little while back; vector art from a sketch done of a Victoria's Secret model. I really enjoyed the process, so different from working in Photoshop; would like to do more vector art.

What version of illustrator do you use? I have been spending my nights going through version 9 at home trying to learn the pen tool better. This looks great I like the way the swim suit blends into the background.

Thanks, Kevin. I have Illustrator CS, but I don't use it...I prefer to use a program I actually know how to use--FreeHand. :) I know I need to learn Illustrator but I am dragging my feet. Something in me resents having to spend hours and hours of time learning a new program when I could be doing something more productive with my time...though I expect at some point I'll get motivated enough to do it. Maybe.

Chrissie, I can't believe I just came across your blog. How is it that I just NOW came across your blog? Color me baffled. Anyway, yeah, I'm really loving your work. Such an array of different styles and techniques. All equally as beautiful. Bookmark!

I wish I could draw girls like you!
I love the expression, the sweetness all that personality and classy style...

Thank you for share with us all that art!

Chris, just a beautiful illustration overall, especially the face, so simple but yet so full of personality. I bow to your talent and ability.
