Mu - Neogeen Badge

Musk ox are such neat animals. Some day I want to make a quivit yarn scarf. :)

Natasha's Vulture

Vulture medicine teaches us to trust in the universe to provide for us; that if we follow our true path we will be taken care of. Vulture people tend to be resourceful and fully developed in the skills that they possess. Mess seems to follow vulture, but in fact vulture follows mess. They are excellent at the ‘cleaning up’ of problem situations – whether they are emotional, physical, or spiritual. Whatever the mess, trust a vulture to have an efficient, effective solution to it.

Though it gets a bad reputation, the vulture doesn’t cause chaos, it cleans it up. It makes the best of any situation – even those that seem unpleasant or horrible to other people.

Acrylic, 3x4".

Back in the Old Days

The younger generation always has such new-fangled ideas!

A quick sketch of some yellow-billed hornbills. I don't think many birds make a better crotchety old man than a hornbill. ;)

This painting is on a 13" diameter drum, elk hide over a stained pine frame.

I was playing around with the horse silhoutte that I made for the 'Aquarelle' series that I did, and I decided to use it to make a few 'painted ponies' on drums.
This drum is for sale, and will be up soon on my online store.

I do custom drum work and have more drums up on my site: http://www.foxloft.com/Store/Drums/

20"x26", handmade papers.

Aquarelle translates roughly to painting with water, specifically the process of or result of using thin, transparent washes of watercolor. It is also often associated with the famous (and very wonderful to work with) brand of paper of the same name. I really was going for an odd, water-reminiscent washed look with this, but more bold and stylized, so I thought it was a fitting title

I've never done a project like this, but I was greatly inspired to play with it. I have a small series I am doing in different colors.

Cat, I'm a kitty cat...

And I dance dance dance, dance dance dance!

Sorry, I couldn't resist. ;)
A commissioned sketch for PeachCat of her cheshire cat character, dancing away.

Playbow

This is an image I just finished for the MFF team. I've been in the mood to do a lot of stylized work lately, and this is one of those things that came out.

Two playful huskies, eventually I think I will put this on a drum.

6"x6", Sumi and India ink, Watercolor

"Ponder"
16x20" acrylic and ink on illustration board.
This is my part of Kyoht's "Bump in the Night" portfolio that will be for sale at FC 2005. I had a lot of fun making this, though I am not altogether pleased how it turned out.

Sacrilicious!

I can't help it. Veiled chameleons remind me of the pope.

Up to No Good

This is a collaboration between Skulldog and myself - I sketched and she colored. A commission for Preyfar of two dragons. They seem to be scheming, don't they?

Tricks Dragon ACEO

Tricks, the purple dragon for Marshroots.
Watercolor, acrylic and sumi ink.

3.5"x2.5"

Purple Dragonfly Pendant

This was a custom glyph commission, taken a step further - the purple 'heart' in the center is actually a small piece of paua shell that I carved and inset.
This scan is actually many times the actual size of the piece - actual size being about 1 3/4" x 1 1/2"

Dragonfly has now been added to my online available pendants gallery, along with its symbolism - please check it out!

Rackety Raccoon Pendant

A commissioned custom pendant for Rackety raccoon of his character. Pyrography and acrylic on tagua. This will be drilled and strung to be wearable!
To see more of my pendants, please check out my tagua gallery - linked under 'more info'.

Rackety Raccoon Pendant

A custom pendant of a totemic raccoon, fascinated by its own bright red heart spot.
For Rackety, a really great commissioner to work with!
The actual piece is less than 2" tall.

A stylized raptor glyph for my good friend Broketail (if you haven't seen his art, check it out, it rocks! www.broketail.com)

I took a lot of liberties with the anatomy to make it flow better. After all, he's dancing!

This is one of my newer glyph images, a flying raven burned onto a tagua pendant. I have just updated my website with many new glyph images! Go take a peek!
