Some more pics of the most recent drawings for The History of Redemption book, mostly pencil, some ink here and there, all piled for the eyes of ye faithful.

I started posting previews of recently completed illustrations (or in progress) on Dribbble, so follow along if you’d like to see what’s the latest.

As I mentioned before, alot of the inspiration for some of the illustrations are after older works of art, by lots of different old masters from different eras.  It’s sort of like a sacred art remix, and it’s a blast (you art historians might notice Bosch, Velazquez, etc)… I’m really excited about everything.

About 50 illustrations… full pages, two-page spreads…  this thing is going to be a monster.  I’ll post more completed illustrations soon!

Original watercolor paintings from the etsy shop of United Thread, love them, colors that compliment each other brilliantly, subtly actually.  Something unpretentious about them. I like the emphasis on pattern and the signature textures of watercolor. I’m not used to loving watercolors so much!

I had already bought the little gray dove and then we did a trade for a few more. . . look at those eyes! Aren’t they wonderful? The  strong brush strokes and shining feathers. Thank  you Diane for the honor of a trade!

Fresh white paint and thin lines on old pages. . . find more in the etsy shop Restless Things.

And, oh goodness gracious, my absolute ideal jewelry, totally going on the christmas list, the “if I sell a painting” list, the perfectness of the new Vamoose shop.

The title, what Marshall says for “little bit”, usually used when asking for a taste of my ice cream, or wanting more of a cartoon. . .

Images, preview of the Kid Art Show we are throwing at White Whale, Saturday August 14th at 6:30 pm. There will be cookies made by the mothers of all the artists (all are great cooks actually), hopefully a dry sidewalk for chalk drawing, and a sheet tent I have yet to configure. And lots of great art, painted and drawn with a rare abandon that most of us since have lost.  Some of the pieces will be for sale, others reserved for archives.  The monster (google eyes), triceratops (blues with pink pencils), and collage by Marshall. The photos of the cake and the sculpture were taken by Mollie, they are done by Jude and Henry. We are all hoping for more cakes, I have a feeling that one’s for the archive. . .

I can’t remember where I saw these abstract landscapes, but they’re awfully nice. The colors are extremely alive, I especially love how the darks have subtle variations of tone under all those bright strokes.  Great paintings you have there Katherine Sandoz.
