this was the initial sketch, and then I cleaned it up in illustrator.

 the final result is very precise.

some junk

this giraffe was for a friends son's school. I had to change the final color version to a more natural giraffe pallette, but this was my first color choice.

I did these bears about a year ago for Caboom studio. can't find the original sketches.

new bathroom curtains

our new bathroom needed some curtains, so I had to make some. cotton with eyelet.I just love this fabric with the hidden bunnies!

target card

here is another gift card I did for target stores (in stores now) . I got to make a plush bear which was photographed. above are some of the sketches I did before going to a final plush.

and here is how the final bear came out. (it's wearing a diaper)

I did the 'baby' text stitching seperatley.

and here is the final set up which they photographed.
I made that little green rug he sits on too.

back from oaska

I had a great time in oaska, thank you to all my friends at dream ranch for taking such good care of us. good (new) food, and lots of fun!

these are the deer that guard nara park. they are so friendly you can walk right up and pet them. the park has been there for over a thousand years with generations of deer guarding it.

these giant statues were inside todaji temple.

I did 3 workshops while I was there, it was something I have never done before, challenging yet fun. I'll post the pattern and instructions later.

this is one of the display walls with my plush.

this is a 'Roo-tote' brand bag I designed. they collaborated with artists on a
mickey/minnie tote bag series.
