IF … Tropical

              Peet finally agreed to a spin around the lagoon. Within minutes,
              he was relaxed and having a grand ol' time (as I knew he would).
              I, on the other hand, kept a keen eye on the crocodile that had
              slipped into the water just after we launched.

IF … Moon

Hey diddle diddle,

This post is a riddle –

Why did Peet jump over the moon?

The little cat mewed,

To see such a sight,

While Buttercup whistled a tune.

Cat Tale

Currently, I'm teaching my Digital Arts class how to use Adobe Illustrator.
Their assignment is to design a postage stamp. Along with an image, the stamp's value and the mythical country from which it's been issued must be present. This is the art I developed as I demonstrated Illustrator's various tools and techniques.
A special shout-out to Laurel Burch for the inspiration for this design.
Hmmmm … I just may order custom stamps.

IF … Jagged

A Tweet's shell is jagged.

My tutu is too!

And here's what happens
when I take an antihistamine with an espresso chaser.

IF … Passion

It's a two-fer! I had fun creating the vector-drawn heart and playing with color variations, although it took a lot more hours than one would suspect. During computer breaks, I drew Peet & Buttercup dancing. Later, I decided to blend them together to make a story. Why not?
