Here are some old illustrations from my portfolios. Clean out time! I'm having fun pulling out things I haven't seen in a long time and scanning them! Here are a Mayan lady, a Mayan dancer and friend, and a little girl. I love drawing people from around the world!
They were all done from photos. You may find them soon in my Etsy shop. https://www.etsy.com/listing/152060927/custom-watercolor-and-graphite-portrait?ref=shop_home_active




This is my latest submission to Illustration Friday. The theme this week is "Hybrid"!

    I love the 'Happy flying this week!' It reminds me that it is okay to have more than one creative passion at the same time, that maybe they can morph together into something new, unexpected and extraordinary. I also appreciated the TED talk by Elizabeth Gilbert that you posted on your sidebar. All inspirational stuff!

I'm still cleaning out my portfolios and I recently found a booklet I illustrated once about Religion in the USA. I was living in Connecticut at the time. It was entitled Religion USA and was produced by a company called Happy History, Inc. It's goal was to celebrate the diversity of religions that were present in the area at that time. These are some of the religious symbols I was asked to draw for the book. I thought it would be fun to share these during the Holiday season. I was asked to draw this as a symbol of the Baha'i concepts on the Oneness of Religion. Torah- Judiasm Christian Cross Menorah-Judiasm This symbol- the Crown of Thorns was included in the book as a Christian Science symbol Another pretty Menorah Happy Holidays!
