Illustration Friday - Invention

In the lab late one night...

*KittenChops - Clever design and illustration

*Douglas Jones - Great illustration with a retro feel

*Alilisa's dolls - It's all in Russian so I can't make heads or tales, but keep clicking to see some very neat dolls and things (via the uber-talented Ligreego)

Illustration Friday - Thanksgiving

Ah, report cards... Gulp.

*Cardboard instruments - YES! They sound pretty darn good too.

*Gustaf Tenggren - Swedish illustrator

Lions and Tigers and Bears Oh My!

Sketching today, Dorothy and the Scarecrow.

*I love these pictures - they remind me of Robert Doisneau's photos.

*They Might Be Giants felt puppets

Illustration Friday - Clear

No need for progressive lenses!

*Fun vintage glasses.

*I saw "Iron Giant" for the first time last night. I LOVED that robot! There's concept art over here

Ornaments

I've been making Christmas ornaments lately. This one is a favorite - she looks a bit like she's heading out to a cotillion or something.

*Vintage paper dresses at the Victoria and Albert

In the details
