The End of an Blogging Era!

Hi everybody!

After many years, I am sadly retiring this blog in favor of a Tumblr page.

From now on, you can find news, sketches, pictures, etc. over on this corner of the internet, instead:

See you over there!

Cheers,

Renee

Inktober 2014 (Week Four)

Hi friends! Months later, I realized I never posted the end to my #inktober koala tale! You can view the whole story in my facebook album or on my website! 

Thanks for following along!

Cheers!

Inktober 2014 (Week Three)

Inktober 2014 (Week Two)

Inktober 2014 (Week One)

I didn't mean for this to happen, but my #inktober turned into a story about friendship: 

In a perfect world (one where I realized I wanted to follow the story of koala right from the start), I would have built up the story between koala and bird a little more before bird took off on his own...

...and left koala feeling a little lost.

Because I wanted to express what it feels like when you seem to have lost something or someone...

...and show how you can overcome that sad feeling.

Some of this art will eventually make it into my Kickstarter sketchbook. I have the entire book in layout and in 7 days, I'll be ready to hit GO! I'm very excited and just a little hesitant because I am realizing as I'm laying it out, how much emotion I put into everything I draw. I'll be sharing all of that emotion with over 100 people who will hold my book in their hands. 

It's a crazy feeling!

Stay tuned for Week Two of my #inktober koala story.

Cheers!
