Doodley Do #2 - Cookie the Goldfish

    I love goldfish.  They're dirty, messy little guys, but they're so darn cute swimming and waddling through the water.  They can live for twenty plus years, and did you know they can get anywhere from 8 inches to over a foot in length?  That's about as big as a football!

    Sadly, many of these cute little waddling footballs don't get the chance to grow up.  As pets they are often kept in unsuitable conditions due to lack of knowledge or straight up indifference.  That's why for today's Doodley Do, I've decided to create Cookie.

*Insert Sarah Mclachlan song*

    So next time you're thinking about getting that cute little goldfish, remember Cookie.  Do your research, get a proper sized fish tank, and make that goldfish happy you found him.

Digimals Shop

      A few years ago I started doing a lot more experimenting with the digital medium and used programs like Photoshop and Illustrator to create characters and designs.  To showcase these fun ideas (and maybe make some side cash), I created a shop called "Digital Whimsy" on the website Zazzle.  It was nice to see my designs on different items, but like so many others, I was getting lost in the sea of thousands of other designers and artists on the site.  That's why a few months ago I decided to actually create a brand for the launch of a new and better Zazzle shop, "Digimals."  Note the updated website links at the far right of this page.

 

Meet the Digimals Mascot.

      Digimals is all about the cute stuff.  Most of the art is animal themed, but all of it is basically done in that cute cartoony style I can't seem to stay away from.  Needless to say, a lot of the products will be geared towards children, such as this Sweet Pea Toddler Tee.

       There's also my zodiac project that I've been working on for quite awhile now.  Today I'm happy to say all designs are complete and uploaded into Digimals and are available for purchase on cute little coffee mugs.  More items will soon follow, including a fun poster design.

Soon this could be yours!

      Over the next few months I will be adding a more appropriate store banner and lots more fun designs, so stay tuned.  Thanks for reading. :)

Still Alive and Working On Lots of Fun Stuff.

      A quick post today because I haven't done one in over a month (so much for new year's resolutions).

      Been working on an overhaul for my Zazzle shop the past two months and have gotten pretty far.  The grand opening of the revamped shop is coming soon.  I've been focusing a lot on what I do best: cute animals.

      When I went to school I studied illustration, particularly because I love story telling and I love creating artwork for children (I'm too much of a child myself to do otherwise), so I've been focusing on creating a line of designs for children's clothing.  Today's most recent addition is this little gem below.

      I've also finished my zodiac images, and in addition to my sweet pea design, there's a few more children's themed art coming up. Stay tuned for the store launch, and another post.  I will get better at this blogging thing, I promise.
