Lucky Spades, Cartoon Girl

“Lucky Spades” is a light-hearted rendition of Lady Luck, with touches of shamrocks and St. Patrick’s Day. The creative process of producing cartoon style artwork is very uplifting, a stark contrast from the mental mindset necessary to produce the darker, gothic surrealist pieces. Like all my artwork, this was originally sketched in pen on paper. It was later redrawn in Adobe Illustrator and is available as a shirt.

Whirlwind of Negativity

Inspired by old social/political ink drawings, this emotional piece is about being swept away by external forces (incidents, people, etc) and the negative emotions that come with it: fear, ignorance, hate, jealousy and insecurity.

The piece was created with pen and scanned into the computer. Text was created on a path in Illustrator and subtle coloring/texture was added in Photoshop.
