Disney's - Name Works

Okay, I know I haven't been around for ages! But there's a mighty good reason for it! I've been working like crazy! And also being a wife & an evangelist full-time. :) So there's rarely time to blog all that much. Anyway back to this post, this is a new trend out at Disney that my old boss, "Keelan" just opened up about a year ago called, "Name Works! "YOUR NAME AS A WORK OF ART!" He has been encouraging me & keeping me posted on the latest that's going on out there.. so I can be ready for action when the time comes for me to move back to my homeland. So, I figured I'd listen & get on the ball with learning how to draw them just in case the Lord leads me to go back & work at Disney again. So I've been learning off of my other colleagues in how to form up these NW things. And my! I've got to say they are a lot of hard-work! Hopefully, if I must move back I'll get the hang of it. These were basically a test for someone who needed some for Christmas.. to see if I could conjure them up somehow. And wah-lah.. here's how they came out. This first one says, "MR. GREENWOOD". I was running out of room with the "O" & "D" at the end.. so I merged the letters into the globe.

For "CHLOE" her Mom wanted all horses.. which is generally a lot more difficult when it's all the same theme. But I managed somehow? ;)

And lastly, we have "MICHAEL" in all robots. Another hard one.. but fun at the same time.

iPad Sketching at the Mall

I know I haven't posted anything in quite sometime. Mainly cause FB has sort of taken over all my posts. So anyway, I figured I'd throw something on here finally. lol. :P Here's a couple of sketches I did at the mall recently on my iPad. These were drawn with my finger. I actually would've had more to post.. but I accidentally saved over them. *Note to self* Always 'export' drawings to Camera Roll so I don't save over an old drawing. :P

The Stampek Family!

Well, I figured it was time to do an updated one of me & my humble little family. lol. I just got some new markers in the mail & figured I'd have a go at using them. I love the way they work! And.. I hope to get faster at using them so I can apply it when I work at live events. Below is me, my cat "Snuggles", my husband "David" and our dog "Angel". ;)

Caricature Gig at Montsalvat in Eltham, Australia

I got invited to do a caricature gig at this incredibly gorgeous place recently.. and I couldn't help but take photos to share! So classy, elegant & picture perfect! :) This building was: "The Great Hall" - You can see some of the bridal party gathering.

The married couple would leave on their honeymoon in that car down there.

"The Bluestone Chapel"

Here's a close up of "The Bluestone Chapel"

Looking to the left of the Bluestone Chapel.. takes you to this little creek.

A far shot of the astonishing view

Looking through the trees. For some reason, it reminded me of the "Little Red Riding Hood" storybook. hee-hee. ;D

This was the building I worked in called, "The Long Gallery"
And here are some of the drawings I drew! :) I barely took photos.. cause I was so busy. But luckily there was a photographer by the name of "Lakshal Perera" there who was kind enough to take a few! :)

180 Babies

I worked on these a while back ago.. and had a FANTASTIC time drawing them. They are to promote the 180 movie at: www.180movie.com I drew many more.. but these below happen to be my favorite of the batch. If you want to see more or download them for free. You can go to: 180baby.wordpress.com Enjoy!!!

Still Drawing Lots

I know I haven't posted in a while.. but it's because I'm working. I will post more as soon as I am allowed to share. ;)

Calvary Melbourne Australia

These are some Banners I put together for the Church I attend. I created digitally in Photoshop. The the top one is for the Ladies Meetings they have once a week. The bottom one is for the men's meeting they have about once a month. Here's the Church's website: calvarymelbourne.com.au/

Tattoo Artist & a Western Bulldogs Fan

Here's a couple from today. The tattoo one below was fun to draw. :)


And here's another one. They wanted a Big Mustache - Western Bulldog Fan with his staffy.

I forgot to share this one from a while back. So here it is. :)

Things 1,2 & 3

Well, this family decided to have a themed birthday of Dr.Suess. Here's a caricature I drew up for their very cute triplets. I had several photos to choose from.. but the ones I generally used as a source are the ones you see below on the Caricature. This one was a lot of fun. I hope they enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed drawing it. :)

My QR Codes

or... (this one works too!) :D

Scan the image with your 'RedLaser' App or 'Barcode App' from your "iPhone" or with your "Smartphone".

R.I.P. - Steve Jobs

A sad day to lose a brilliant mind like this.

It's a funny thing really (someone was sharing with me earlier) that Steve Jobs was adopted. There are a lot of people mourning him that may have counseled his biological mother to get an abortion. And just look at what the world would have missed....Check out the 180 movie at: www.180movie.com

I thought I'd share this one.

"The 180 Movie"

An amazing 'must-see' 1/2 hour movie! If you haven't seen it yet, please take the time to do so.

Caricature Gig for a Birthday

Yeah.. this was fun. I wish I would have taken more photos though. :P I need a photographer. lol. ;)

Caricatures From Photos.

Well, I've been slacking in sharing my artwork lately.. but here's some neat ones to share. :)

180 - Powerful Presentation!!!!

Did you know this?
In the U.S. If you destroy an Eagle's egg (that's an embryo) it is a federal crime punishable by more than 10 years jail time and a $250,000 fine. Destroy a human embryo and it is federally funded.



Powerful presentation. A must see!

How I Draw a Caricature

okay.. so I've never made a Drawing Video before.. so I figured I'd get with the program & just make one. Enjoy! :)
