WHAT ABOUT THIS?

another idea...can you write me & tell me what you think?
for the Booth...(it is 2 sided and it measures 8' h x 20')

AAARGH!!!

Somebody stop me...
I can't draw one more idea for my Booth walls!
I'm going crazy...just when I think I have the idea...
another one comes along! Geez!
When you have no perimeters it is so much harder
to narrow down the lot of looks.

this is my watercolor look...the yellow block will have
snap shots of my characters on it. The right side of
the booth is the same only a mirror image of this...
(The yellow with the black outline is to simulate a scrapbook.)
What do you think?
Remember my characters are set in a Tropical setting...
bright colors...flamingos...sunshine...flowers...

FLAMINGOS!!!

I'm seeing PINK!!!

Just a sketch at this point...playing with her today!

RELAXATION!

Tis sunday & it's lie around with a cat or 2
(and of course Daddy's dog-Ginger)...
we're watching old re-runs of Americas Next Top Model...from 2003.
Boy, unpolished it was in the beginning...but still fun to watch. Gives me LOTS of ideas...maybe Millie should do a runway show in her club down in Florida....hehehe!
I can see her now...'working' her leopard leggings!
TATA for now..........DEIDRE

In the early Fall I signed a contract with CRAFTWELL. They make
electronic die-cutting machines for the Craft Industry. My designs
debuted in late January 2011 at the CHA Show (Craft/Hobby/Association).
I'm very excited about this new venture...I drew up about '70' unique

illustrations for some SD Cards...(that the end user buys to use with Their machines.)
Below is one of many purses I did for them! ENJOY!

HOT!!!

Yes...I'm talking one HOT mama!
Here she is...getting ready for LAS VEGAS!
Meet~Millie...she's one sassy, flashy & a little bit loopy...broad!
She's a Boomer, Retired & is Ready to give you the 'low-down'
on her view of the world!
She's the 'yin' to Max's yang!
(I'll give ya a peek at Max next week!)

TGIF!

Don't know why I'm saying that...since I am in the studio everyday, except some sundays!
What a week...working on 5 different projects it seems. One is the "look" of the booth, two is drawing my main characters in detail, three is designing paper products, four is planning the trip, & five is trying to learn more about Corel Draw! I'm exhausted!!! I think it might be movie night...but before I go here is a look at a pattern I created...for my event!

In the PINK!

I've just finished sketching out my Booth! Ya know I think I really like it...& I it's going to be fabulous darling! It shouts...SASSY! I can share this with ya...it'll have LOTS of COLOR! They're gonna love it! I'll be Featuring a couple of 'Main Characters' in the show~but I'm also taking many of my other little 'characters' to Vegas with me...cause they just would not stop bugging me about being left behind...(yes, my drawings do chat with me).

I'm seeing Pink Flamingos!!!

A Glimpse...

...of another peek at one 'sassy,

flashy & occasionally trashy over '50' broad,
whom I have yet to name...got any ideas???
send them to me...

Baby Boomer Couple RETIRE!

After much sketching with my New 'sassy & flashy' older broad character...I realized she needed a hubbie...partner...a friend~so here is a Peek at him...(kinda looks like a cross between my Dad & Dr. Phil) LOL! Hmmm....names in the works! Tell me what ya think? He is getting packed for his trip to Las Vegas too! Look out...Wayne Newton!

NEW CHARACTER...

Working on her name...
here's a peek at beginning sketch of her.
She's going to be the "Headliner" in Vegas!
Can you say, sassy, flashy, & a bit trashy?
She's gonna tell ya'...just 'what's what'!

2011?

How did this happen?

Where did last year go?
Yikes...!

I'd better get busy...
Today, I'm working on re-vamping my web site for the New Year!
When you can do anything...sometimes it is harder.
Can someone give me some boundaries?
I'm thinking of going all black & white...
well at least that is
where my head is at this moment!
Or maybe I'll just go out with the GIRLS and PARTY!
