Happy New Year! I’m working on something BIG!
Hey everybody! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and aren’t having TOO hard a time adjusting to reality again!
I am really excited about a big ‘ole project I’ve been working on since mid-November. It’s taking a LOT of time and energy, but I think it will be worth it, and I think you guys will be really excited to see what it is, too (I hope, at least!). I should be able to reveal what’s going on in a couple of weeks (I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag too soon!), so sit tight.
I actually have a lot of cool things planned for 2010. I can’t wait to share everything with you guys when plans get more settled. In the meantime, how about a fun project from last year?

When I was contacted by W & M last year, I immediately loved them. W’s got one heck of a sense of humor, and both of their personalities immediately jumped out of their emails. I wanted to be their BFFs (but I’ll settle for Facebook pals, hahaha).
W & M wanted to play off the theme “Opposites Attract” for their Save the Dates. Although they met when they bought identical townhomes, their personalities and interests are totally different. The theme made for a really fun project and a super cute Save the Date.
I drew W & M in front of their individual townhomes with objects that describe their interests on either side. And, as you can see, W’s sporting his motorcycle leathers (and I love M’s dress, don’t you?!).
W is a total adrenaline junkie. He loves motorcycles and sports of any kind.
M on the other hand, is more my speed. She’s into reading, shopping and an awesome collection of high-heeled shoes.

The back of their card features their cats, which are hilarious. One is totally tiny, and the other is gargantuan and sleeps in really strange positions! Super cute.
I love drawing custom illustrations for people with big personalities. It makes brainstorming for the right idea really fun, and the end product is always super unique.
