It's a mural for my Nephew who loves all things soccer. He and his mom chose SLR (Salt Lake Royals soccer team) as the main crest and then a soccer ball shooting out of the wall (that will be his bed wall).<br />

I first had contact from Rachel Guymon (wife of dentist, James Guymon) a few months ago, asking me if I'd be interested in doing the Logo for their Pediatric Dentistry. The Guymons are friends of a daughter of a neighbor of mine. A neighbor (and friend) who I happened to do a mural for a couple of years ago. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At first I think I was a little nervous doing something that would be seen by so many people and be so visible online. Only because I'd never done something like this before. It's one thing to do murals, or my own artwork, but it's different when someone is asking something as important as make a logo that would create a first impression for people of their business. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But I took on the job because it was a great opportunity to keep learning my craft and I love helping out friends! And it was great! It's nice working for people who are so nice, who know what they want and yet allow me to be creative. </div>

I am so impressed! I love the way they manipulated my art and put the critters everywhere! Computer graphics aren't my thing, so it's amazing to see what can be done nowadays. </div>

As stated in the picture above, this was a project I decided to do in part as a present, but in part an exercise to stretch my creativity. I copied the styles of eleven of my favorite artists, came up with my own design, and tried to fit a sort of theme for each month. I've been on a 'journey' you could say, trying to find my own style, and I've found that I love vintage inspired art, simple color schemes (usually =)) and lots of contrast. All in all it was a fun project!<br />

Possibly the most nerve-wracking piece I've ever done, this is a shadow box lid I did for a gentleman who has a passion for scouts and wanted to showcase his collection of vintage scout manuals. The project took me several weeks as there were several layers and drying was somewhat difficult and had to be done in a very careful manner. Also because I opted to use a felt-tipped pen for some of the black detailing (it could NOT be done with a brush...too small), and when I went to seal it the ink loved to smear. So, lots of re-dos. But I think it turned out all right. Comments welcome =)<br />

Here's a picture I did for my cousin's dauhgter to put in her room. She picked the colors and I went to work. We did this on trade. My cousin has a shop called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/sweetshoppejewelry?hc_location=timeline"></a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/sweetshoppejewelry?hc_location=timeline">Sweet Shoppe Jewelry.</a> She makes the cutest jewelry ever.

Sorry if the picture is a bit dim. Again, I forgot to take pictures, so this is at 10:40 at night =). Click to see bigger. Anyway, this was a picture I did for my son's 3rd birthday. I wanted to 'decorate' his room, too, and he has lots of wall space. So, I put in a lot of the things he loves, and as you can see that includes lots of vehicular transportation and some critters, too. His main 'thing' he wanted in this was a Yeti. Funny guy. <br />

And I really wanted some more artwork in the rest of the house, so my hubby allowed me to paint over one of his class assignments from ages ago. This is in the style of another artist I love, <a href="http://www.luliewallace.com/">Lulie Wallace</a> who sells some of her work at Anthropologie. Hers, of course, is made from much finer quality paint, but I do what I gotta do. I still think I might go back and add a few touches of more vibrant color here and there.<br />

Here is the my biggest project of 2012. This is a mural I did for my neighbors, ironically enough AFTER I moved to a new town. Such a cute house! This was for their playroom which consisted of this outer wall and then three smaller rooms within.<br />
<br />
The artwork is very obviously inspired by <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Great-Snortle-Hunt-Claire-Freedman/dp/0857072633/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1350360783&sr=8-1&keywords=the+great+snortle+hunt">Kate Hindley</a>. (Her <a href="http://hollowlogblog.blogspot.com/">Blog here</a>). She was an artist whom I had just heard about and fell completely in love with at first sight. Her artwork is very cute, the colors wonderful, and the home owner loved the artwork as well. Obviously I had to change things up a bit, but it is very close to what we found on her blog and in her book. These are all beginning shots as well as some sketches I worked from...<br />

Okay, so like an idiot, I forgot to take pictures of the final outer wall, the big burrito, so I will go back and do that post haste. But there you go, and since I always get asked I will say right now that it took me 51 hours to complete (not including prep time: sketching or planning). I loved working on this project. It's nice to do a piece that I love as much as the person I'm doing it for. Takes all the guess work out. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
UPDATE:<br />
<br />
Here are the final pictures of the outer wall. My husband was nice enough to go back and take them for me while I had a cold.<br />

My own design, no copying this time. I think I've fallen away from that habit. Now onto my own style.<br />

This first was for my sister-in-law...<br />

This next project is inspired by The Land of Nod. They are one of my favorite stores now. Check them out <a href="http://www.landofnod.com/">here</a>. They have some super cute lanterns. I made my own design on some lanterns I had that have been sitting around for ages, waiting for me to decide what to do with them. And being in a rental home and being limited as far as decorating (or at least, in my case, not being able to paint murals like I normally do), this is what I decided to do for my girls room to add some interest.</div>

Here is a peak inside my sketch book, since I always love to see what other artists have in their's. Above-Right, I think I was watching the office and this came out. I am going through my 'ugly' phase, trying to get out of the habit of just drawing proportionately correct people. Also working on designs.</div>

LonelyFor those of you new to the blog, I've started doing illustrations based on a prompt from a website called <a href="http://illustrationfriday.com/">'Illustration Friday'</a>. It's a site for artists to share their work. It's a fun project, one that has helped me be more creative and also be inspired by other artists. <br />
<br />
Here is my illustration for this week based off the prompt, Lonely:<br />

This one I was actually having a super hard time doing because of recovery pains, and my husband likes to tease me about my style (the kids with the big heads), but whatever =). The primary wanted a poster to go with their theme for the year. I think I forgot to post the first poster I did. It didn't seem appropraite at the time. Maybe I'll change my mind and put it up later.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
And this last one is just a poster I made for my Parents who are coming home from the DRC (Democratice Republic of Congo, Africa) after being there for two years serving as Mission President for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Can't wait to see them again!<br />

I guess I could have actually tried to take a decent picture, but I wasn't planning on posting it here. Oh well. <br />
<br />
Tada. So, apart from trying to recover and pack up and move all at once, this is what I've been up to. Yes, I'm a glutton for punishment. <br />
<br />
Stay tuned. I have mural planning underway. I'm so excited for this next project! I cant' wait until I'm not renting anymore so I can paint my own walls. Then I can get really crazy =). For now, however, I get to paint someone elses'.

Okay, so I'm not sure how I feel about this one. One of these days I will actually take the time to edit and make something worth looking at. You can tell me your harsh opinions in the comments =).<br />
<br />
Obviously, this picture for Illustration Friday is entitled: Hurry! These girls are rushing to catch the bridal bouquet. These are little girls, but I actually imagine them marrying age, only acting like children to catch the bouquet first. (We all have some amount of childishness in us).<br />
<br />
I was playing around again with style and technique. This time I used pencil to help with shading which I also thought sort of tacky, then I saw a really awesome artist use pencil over their paint and they did an amazing job. I'm still working on my abilities. It's pretty obvious I never went to art school. Any constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated!Kathryn Packer Robertshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16506942804607936833noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3223428180093800778.post-71120907273349701452012-05-25T10:14:00.003-06:002012-05-28T19:06:11.687-06:00Illustration Friday: FADED<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I wasn't sure I wanted to post this picture--ever--since the feelings behind it are personal, but I thought this fit the theme quite well in my mind. <br />
<br />
Last month I had major surgery done and this picture was born of the feelings produced by the event. Normally I don't scare easily, but I was pretty shaken up just before I went under the knife. I felt, indeed, as though I was fading. Another way to see it is that those feelings have faded with my recovery, or hopefully will in entirety very soon. The damage done has also begun to fade.<br />
<br />
So, that's my peice. If it looks like a bunch of scribbles to you, then you aren't far off! I started off seriously and then went crazy. Sort of experimenting, in part giving up. A crazy piece, for me.Kathryn Packer Robertshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16506942804607936833noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3223428180093800778.post-55872744778236248602012-04-24T22:40:00.003-06:002012-04-24T22:40:46.456-06:00Illustration Friday: Heights<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Well, let's just say that this girl loves heights. Aparently she found the cliff so alluring that she left the prince at the ball just to go see what was over the edge. All that formality got to her, I think.<br />
<br />
Anyway, sorry this is more of a sketch this time. I barely got it done, and didn't even finish a picture for last weeks topic (I had a good idea and everything!). The pictures I spend the most time on look the worst. This picture took me all of about two minutes and it made the cut. So, there you go. simplicity is best. And I didn't want to muddy it up with a lot of color--becuase I tend to get carried away in that arena as well--so I opted for a two color scheme.<br />
<br />
I'm sure I will one day look back on this time of life and shake my head.<br />

This is my version of the cow jumping over the moon. I know most artists actually have the cow going over the moon, but I thought it made more sense that the cow THINK she is jumping over it, but in reality only jumping over the reflection. Deep, I know =). And you might not know this to look at it (or maybe you would), but I really struggled with that little dog. Boy, was he trying my patience. The cat, I actually found a picture of someone's cat standing on its hind legs, so that wasn't too tough. And I was never good at drawing cows, or horses for that matter. You wouldn't think it would be that difficult, given the fact that I spent the first thirteen years of my life on a farm. But all in all, I was pleased with the way this turned out. Otherwise it would have seen the trash bin and not a fluffy pink package wrapped for the giving.<br />
<br />
So, there you have it. While the Farmer is sound asleep in bed, he is blissfully unaware that his animals and dishes are throwing a party, celebrating the secret love affair and ultimate elopement of the dish and spoon. The cow is the most giddy of them all, and the little doggy is laughing hysterically at the spectacle she is making of herself. The cat, really, is just happy he has an audience to play his music for. And the trees, well, have no idea...Kathryn Packer Robertshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16506942804607936833noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3223428180093800778.post-182550228533502112012-04-06T14:24:00.002-06:002012-04-06T14:24:33.666-06:00Vocal: Illustration Friday<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

At first when I heard the prompt : vocal, I had a picture of a cat in mind yowling at the moon, with a tree beside it 'plugging' its ears. Well, I did that one and messed it up, so started working on a different one =). This lady is obviously vocal. I imagine that when she is not on stage, she is still as loud. Again, my scanner is not my friend.
