Sketchbook Page! Zombie Cupcakes

Why shouldn't you leave a cupcake half eaten? They turn into huge mutant cupcake zombies and feast on the others.  :)

I've been doodling many cupcakes lately. I'm still tweaking this one, but I couldn't resist sharing. I don't know how i want to color it. I wasn't 100% happy with my safari coloring.. I'm trying to feel out these sketchbook pages, and which mediums work best. I want to use watercolors, but I don't know if i want to paste in the paper... Hmm...

Friendly Reminder- Sketchbook Project 2012!

So As you may have seen, I just posted something to Illustration Friday on Monday morning. I'm really trying to keep up each week with submitting.... 

After submission, I happened to glance at the Ad/ sidebar and what do I see? What is the Ad that has caused me to write a whole post about it? What amazingness was there on that site??  (well I guess I spoiled it in my post title & my images).. It's the Sketchbook Project for 2012!


I didn't even realize when the sign-ups began! (..since October, haha). I admit I totally forgot about it! I didn't want to put it off like I did last year.  So I sucked it up, signed up on the spot! 

I'll (hopefully) be starting school in the Fall, so this will be great practice for the pressure of completing projects on time.  :) 




The theme I picked is Stitches and Folds. The theme is just a jumping-off point, but i plan to keep it around.

  I'm super excited to start. I love that you can rebind and modify the moleskin sketchbook any way that you want to suit your look. :)  (a few tiny rules though)... I love this idea of a traveling art show, and whoever came up with it is genius. 
 
I can't wait to start!  I missed out last year.  :(  That won't happen again. 

Anyone else join in yet?  

Completed books must be postmarked by Jan 31st 2012. I've got some time, but I'm so pumped I might just explode! Let's hope that motivation is around when my sketchbook is delivered and lasts til Jan 2012...
