1. a sweet little elephant named eli....

is what is on the table this week. actually, i started him over the weekend and am about half way done. this cutie is a SURPRISE gift for a wonderful part of my neurosurgeon's staff...who's expecting her first baby next month. (let's hope she doesn't follow my blog, or i've just ruined the surprise...). 

since the baby's gender isn't known, i decided to go with a neutral gender friendly color palette of soft yellows and a multitude of pastels. and because i'm like a child, i have to name EVERYTHING so...i named the elephant eli. could be short for elijah, if it's a boy or elison, if it's a girl. 

either way, i'm super excited to deliver this to jackie. hopefully by the end of this week! these people have taken such amazing care of me in the last three years after three neck surgeries, that NOT doing something for her would just feel so wrong.

oh, and i will be selling this piece as a PRINT as soon as i get it scanned. below are some peeks at the process of little eli in slumberland. i "heart" this elephant :)

2. Slumber...

It's been forever since I've been able to pick up a pencil and doodle something for fun.  It was my turn to work in the Town Center Gallery which gave me a rare moment with my sketchbook, a little music, surrounded by art.  So, I started with a doodle - as I always do - to get the juices flowing.  Unfortunately, the camera that I usually use to photograph my drawings is no longer working.  I was forced to scan this on my basic scanner/printer and I don't like the quality at all.  But, what can ya do...?

Slumber

And, regarding the mural, the city will be sending a couple guys to come and pick it up on Friday.  When that happens, I'll be getting a photo of the whole thing put together.
