ACEO Friday again, my how time flies doesn’t it?
This week I’ve got a silly little caricature of Marilyn Monroe, this is what happens when I have no real time for art.
This weekend I’m going to do a tutorial on how to do the bow hair so look out for that on Monday.
I don’t think there’s anything better than a good cup of tea on a cold day. I’ve just gotten some new lose leaf varieties and so I’m obsessed at the moment. Mmmmm. what are your favorite teas?
Anyway here is the third contender in my Casual Hairstyle Poll…
2 plaits! Very easy to do, stays in nicely but has lots of fly aways by the end of the day. This style is good because I can customize it depending on my mood with an alice bow or bows on each end, my only worry is that it’s *too* plain…
Thoughts?
Well back to work!

I drew this last year to celebrate James and my 1 year anniversary and it’s just as appropriate this year 😀
Happy Anniversary Lover! I love you even more now than I did then and I didn’t think that was possible!
You mean the world to me! You are the best thing that’s ever happened to me 😀 Here’s to many more!

Time for another edition of ACEO Friday.
This is Tim. Back in 2005 I did a whole series of comics with Tim, the poor little guy got into the worst situations. He had no friends but was in love with a girl named Enid.
Ok I’m going to keep this super quick because I reeeeeeally want to go and do myself some nice Acrylic nails, it’s been FOREVER! And this afternoon is going to be my only afternoon off in a while… so off I go!
I’m picturing 3d ceramic roses and pastels 😀 And I’ve got a big weekend planned so expect some pics!

Today’s ACEO is all about Alice.
I don’t really know why but out of all the 70 or so art cards I’ve done, this is my favorite. This is Alice at the Pool of Tears. It’s not very artistic or well drawn, it’s not well coloured and it’s not an original idea. It’s still my favorite. Nuff said.
I’m not selling this particular one but click it to go to my etsy ACEO store for others 🙂

This ACEO was a commission for another etsy user.
The brief was that her friend be in a cartoon version of Dirty Dancing. Client was happy, I’m happy, everyone’s happy 😀

More ACEO Alice style today.
The next Alice piece (believe me there are quite a few) is of the heart soldiers. Now here’s a question, have any of you read the Looking Glass Wars? One of my favorite books ever and one of the best re-imaginings of Alice in Wonderland. While I was finding that link I just found out that there is a second book!! OMG MUST BUY IT! I need to find somewhere in Aus to buy this!
This one has been sold but feel free to click the picture to be taken to the ACEO etsy sale page 🙂
