Henrietta

I wanted to make Henrietta from Mr.Rogers Neighborhood but I couldn't remember what her house looked like...I mean I know it was in a tree but I couldn't find any reference photos to refresh my memory of some details. So I just mashed up what I could remember from the show.

Subterranean Homesick Alien

I figure this could count for Illustration Friday's "Seperated" even though it's a bit of a stretch.

Sorry for awful photos. My camera really hates colors like this. :(

"Subterranean Homesick Alien" by Radiohead

The breath of the morning
I keep forgetting
The smell of the warm summer air

I live in a town
Where you can't smell a thing
You watch your feet
For cracks in the pavement

Up above
Aliens hover
Making home movies
For the folks back home

Of all these weird creatures
Who lock up their spirits
Drill holes in themselves
And live for their secrets

They're all uptight
Uptight.. [x7]

I wish that they'd swoop down in a country lane
Late at night when I'm driving
Take me on board their beautiful ship
Show me the world as I'd love to see it

I'd tell all my friends
But they'd never believe
They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely

I'd show them the stars
And the meaning of life
They'd shut me away
But I'd be all right
All right..

I'm just uptight
Uptight.. [x7]

Giraffes Swap!

fabric?

I may or may not use this for spoonflower...

Megafauna

Large animals in tiny squares (about 2x2in)

Just listenin' to my tambourine cd player

Pen doodlies on thesaurus page for Illustration Friday's "Silent":

Rockets

I found these cool shaped scraps of wood in the wood shop that look like rocket ships...so I painted them like so...

 

I like to incorporate text but I feel like they need to be relevant...so the pages are from a trashed book I found called "the Mother's Encyclopaedia", the chapters I've used so far are "Social Maturity Scale" and "Travelling with Children":
