Rudaba Rapunzel

Back to pastels. First time using them in over a year. I'm glad I haven't lost too much ground with using them. Guess it's like riding a bike. This is for the monthly theme of Rapunzel for the Children's Illustrator group. I did some research on the fairy tale and discovered the Persian tale of Rudaba, which is a much older story than the Brother Grim's story. However it's not completely like the known tale today, so I ended up combining both the Persian and the European story into this.

Grandchildren Wanted

Attempting to pick up my comic "Grandchidren Wanted" again. Comic is either directly scripted from interactions with my mother, or heavily inspired by it. I'm going to attempt to update this weekly.

Masked Series?

So a while ago I did a self portrait of myself in a mask:

While I was in Hawaii my friend had two more of these Venetian masks. She is the one who originally bought them in Italy. I asked if I could borrow them and take some photos with the idea of possibly of doing a series of these portraits. As I see it, it would be a series of three with a portrait for each mask.
