Workin’
So this is what I’ve been working on lately. I don’t usually blog my work but I want to someday when I ramp up my business site (which doesn’t exist yet). Anyway I asked Bethany if she’d mind if I posted her banners I’ve recently made and she said go for it! It’s great working with friends.
I especially love this one. My execution is not perfect but I love the idea of Annalie as Katara from The Last Avatar. When I was visiting the Actually’s this last Spring I witnessed Annalie’s infatuation with Avatar. She dresses up in all kinds of interesting outfits (usually made from pieces and parts of other costumes) and dances around the room with great sweeping arm motions. She’s water-bending of course.
And lastly, this one. Bethany’s pregnant, as most of you know. Being pregnant has muddled her brain a bit (as it commonly does) and she’s found herself making all kinds of silly mistakes like misplacing things, forgetting things and making typos on instant messenger…which is great because now she’s finally knows what it feels like to be me!

I just love to see your work, – your use of colors and penwork/ lines in drawing programs, always put a sile to mye face, make me take another look. Love to see the chane in banners, – and these banners for Bethany look fun and full of life.

I love them all. And I’m thinking I really need to try playing with gradient now that I have a proper illustrator program.

As much as I love the waterbender one, I think my favorite is the bridge one. I giggle every time I read “We just can’t stay in one place.” It’s funny ‘cuz it’s true!

Those are fantastic banners. Just really good work. The Christmasy ones are atmospheric, but the colours in the moon one talk to me.

I love the Annalie Katara, because I’m LOVE Avatar, but I can really relate the the rising at moon one! The bridge makes me laugh too. Can you make one of Bethany with a Where’s Waldo hat? bahahahaha

I think my fav is the Sun and Moon one. They are all really neat though! You are so talented!

You make the best banners. I think we need to talk, it’s time for some change at my beach.
