The Joy of Sisters
Here's me with my two sisters, Carolyn and Susan. When I was little, we three would do everything together!! Recently I dug up an old story ("chapter book") we made back in 1995 - I was 8, Susan was 10, and Carolyn was 12 - the story was called Fairy Forest. We made a ton of these stories - though since I was youngest and couldn't write well enough yet, I stuck to just drawing some pictures.
Anyways, these drawings are pretty funny! Here's a sample of what our young minds came up with:
Here are our three fairy characters. Susan's has black hair, and hers was named Sincalace. Carolyn's is the blond, Pinsa. And mine is the brunette, named Laso. They were cousins whose mothers (who, for some reason, were all single mothers) all lived together in a mushroom house.
There is a human girl named Jessica who befriends the fairies (Susan's character), but her father the Boss (my character) was a greedy man who wanted to take the fairy's golden wings.
Here are the characters all angry at the Boss's evil-ness. (Jessica, the human, shrinks down to fairy size by the help of the mystical old witch, Isore.) Our oldest sister Angela had a character named Salla for a while (the one who looks an awful lot like Sleeping Beauty).
Here's Boss and his side kick, Ivan, "huddling" to form a plan. Yes, huddling... I wasn't a sick child, I swear! I laugh my head off that I drew them shirtless too. Naughty, naughty.
Well, that was a sampling of my past. Growing up with so many sisters was a lot of fun! Thank goodness we all grew up into respectable young adults.
Okay, I lied. Who wants to grow up to be a respectable adult, anyway? :)

And then there was clay...
Yesh, more clay sculpture goodness! This time in the honour of the Angora Napkin premiere that happened during the Ottawa International Animation Festival yesterday. I know, I know, I'm slow and this SHOULD have been posted BEFORE the event. Oh well. Better late than never, right?
Anyways, I made a figurine of Mallory as a present to Troy before he left for the screening. My first idea was to make a figure of all three girls, but I got lazy in the end... xD
Here is Mallory before being painted. Her legs aren't right here - these ones fell off. Looking at them now, eek. I'm really glad they did! The final ones look a lot less weird. O__o
Here's Mallory and my half-Molly. When Mal's legs started giving me trouble, I erm, kinda abandoned Molly. Oh well, she's still smiling!

Aaaand! Here's the finished Mallory! And she looks so happy to be alive!Here's her at the side. I tried really hard to get her popping belly right xD
I heard that things went really well with the Angora Napkin screening. It was shown with 2 other pilots, and it was by far the best!! Naturally :)
Well, that concludes my latest adventures in clay. I hope everyone enjoyed their Friday! Until next time, have fun looking at this old drawing I dug up. Can you guess which one is Sandra? *really, it's kinda difficult* I've been digging up a lot of old drawings lately, so you'll probably see more of them here.
I'm a Monster
I caught my sis Carolyn watching this video last night - Monkey Majik's new PV for their upcoming Single "Monster". The song is a lot more rock than they usually do, but that's a-ok with me! I pretty much like every song I hear from these guys. I also like the drummer's hairstyle - very unicorn!
That reminds me, my copy of their album "Sora Wa Maru De" is in. I need to go pick it up! *runs off*

What the-?
Hm, seems like the instant October hit, I totally abandoned this blog!! Don't worry, I'm still alive and working on artsy type things. Maybe I'll have something worth posting in a couple days!
...or maybe not.
