Sketches and Books

I know its been a while since I've posted any new work, so here are some doodles from my sketchbook...

I've been looking at alot of art/reading alot about the business of art... Mostly The Business Side of Creativity, 6 Steps to Free Publicity, and other awesome freelance business links (Keri Smith, Creatively Self-Employed) from Meg. (Thank you so much, Meg!!)


I also got this SUPER cute book The Little Big Book of Dogs which has been such an inspiration! It's filled with a bunch of memoirs to dogs of the past, and stuffed with tons of 1940's and 50's drawings, prints, and paintings of dogs!! Definitely pick it up if you are a huge fan of furry things, and 1950's illustrations. (I found it in the bargain section of B&N for $6!! )

Another book I've been looking at...which I received as a gift; the book Love Sick, which is another book filled with 1950's to 60's illustrations... and hilarious commentary on Love, Lust, and Marriage. It's a book worth adding to your collection!! Which reminds me... I should dig up my great grandmother's 1950's cook books, and post some of the illustrations ... Some of the recipes.... sound kinda gross, but the illustrations are so beautiful...
