SO Ms. RedSugar and I have been having creative nights, drawing, planning, doodling, painting, etc. Progress is slow, but it's not easy when you feel like the wee hours of the morning are the best times for creative evergy.... when you have full time jobs the next day.
BUT, my point is that new stuff is coming. Soon. Things have been tough in general lately, in many ways, but it's only more motivation to get something out there we're proud of. Right, Ms. RedSugar?
That's all i'm stopping by to say. More to leave a marker for myself in my blog that we're supposed to be creating stuff, but if anyone's listening, that's cool, too.
That's all for now.
~Bye
Agenda is shot.... BUT.... RedSugar and I should be launching "bright:dark" soon... which is incredibly exciting. Keep your eyes open for our shirts, etc! We're sketching out our ideas now :)
Til then.... here are some more random, unrelated doodles I've done at work over the past month or so to keep sane..... The photos are blurry rips from my flickaday page, but oh well!
that's all for now... more to come on bright:dark as it develops.
~
Soooooo.... been doing a lot of doodling lately, but don't have any photos just yet (aside from in flickaday; see below).... BUT.... just to keep myself in line.... here is my current agenda in terms of art projects:
- Collab with RedSugar on Sarah's Paris themed converse
- Collab with RedSugar on Spidey Shoes!
- Finish and send off shoes to my big sis
- Finish sketch of little brother's tattoo background
- Pumpkin Prince drawing
- Aristocrat painting (yea yea, i'm writing it down to remember this time!)
- More work in my doodle book
- WALL DOODLES with RedSugar
So yea... hopefully i'll (and we'll) get through this stuff soon. Full time job is cutting into my artistic plans!!!
aaaaand... that's all i've got for now. more to come once RedSugar and I finish a couple new pairs!
~bye
Haven't posted in a while since things have been pretty hectic lately (working on a pair of shoes now, planning the first collab pair with RedSugar, poker shoes in queue, a pumpkin prince drawing, tattoo design for my brother, etc...).
BUT.... sitting here at work... I decided to toss in a random shout out!!!!
SO..... to our nightly visitor of the paranormal kind....
.... who enjoys D-Listed (until we do 10 pages in a row)
.... and free Bridezilla episodes (thanks for the tip last night!)
.... who is often insistent that we rent On Demand movies
.... and didn't enjoy our wall art and decided to toss our frame across the wall
.... to our ghostly friend who can't control your own cat
.... can't stay on your own side of the bed
.... and thinks it's funny to freak people out when they're half asleep....
WHAT'S UUUUUUUUUUPPPPP?!?!?!?!? hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahaha. We're not sure if you're a fellow girl or a gay guy, but whoever you are.... can you PLEASE put the rubber chicken back in the stairwell? I kinda miss it.
OH! And don't forget about The Fashion Show on Thursday night! Be there or be square!!!!
Okay so i finished these a while ago, but never got around to posting them. These are just a simple design for Lynne, the founder of how2heroes! Like I said... the design is super simple, but here they are:
http://how2heroes.com/ Awesome site!!!!! Makes me hungry everytime i visit!!!
Aaaaannnnnd, that's it!
Bye!
Okay I feel like I should post some non-shoe art just to get back to the original point of starting up this blog. These are all drawings in various stages of "unfinished" from over the past few years haha. Hopefully this will kickstart me into finishing some projects I've left undone for too long, in addition to the shoe customs with RedSugar.
Soooo.... here we go. Sorry the photos are crappy.... haha I'll post better ones later once I have scans instead.
I have so much I want to get done... but time is limited considering I still have to hold down my job.... so for now, I'm trying to sneak in what I can.
Anyway... that's all for now, really. Work tomorrow (insert "booooooooo") Maybe some new post-it note doodles will turn up over the course of the week, if I don't get caught XD
'Til then!
First of all.... thanks to RedSugar for posting for me on Monday. I've been down for the count for the past 4 days or so, and my roommate was kind enough to drop a note for me here, so.... THANKS!!!
I'm just here to quickly post these shoes for LeendaDLL (and to pimp RedSugar's customs just posted on her blog. Check her out!)
LeendaDLL was my first actual request, so I feel horrible it's taken so long to post them up here. Hope she likes them! Timing has just been really off with these!!! Without further ado.... the Burlesque Vans!
And just as a follow up....
RedSugar and I will be working together on a small business doing these customs on shoes online. We've been drawing together for yeeeears, and this should be a ton of fun for us if it's successful, so please support us, everyone!
We're setting up a site shortly, and until then will just be posting job by job here in our blogs.
Send us some looooove, and as always, let us know if you have any requests!
Ms. RedSugar, let me know if I've missed anything haha.
And now i shall go pass out.
Night!
XD
this is RedSugar, writing for InkGarden.
she's been pretty sick this weekend so she hasn't been able to upload photos of recently completed projects, or anything else really.
she says she'll be back up and running tomorrow evening, and will have LeendaDLL's shoes posted. I saw them and they look really nice :) sexy and stuff :) just sayin :)
sooo yea anyways. she'll be back!
ok bye guyesss ;)
Ms. RedSugar's shoes!
I've been working on these for a while now (on and off), and finally finished them yesterday! Hooray! I was debating waiting to post them since I'll be posting the Burlesque shoes tomorrow or Saturday before I mail them off (LeendaDLL, I'll need your address!!!)
BUT..... I got excited. hahaha. So.... Here are the knee high customs for my dearest roommate. :D
Aaaaaand.... that's it for today. These took a long time to finish, and now that RedSugar has them and loves them.... I shall now relax for the evening. Hopefully by Monday.... we'll both have some info to post about the site we're starting. Keep your eyes peeled! We're on a mission!
Night!
Okay, this one is FINALLY done. Here's a pair of converse for brooke (who was kind enough to supply her own shoes!). I've discovered it's a lot tougher on dark shoes... A loooot tougher. I've been working on these for some time, but I'm pretty happy with how they've turned out.
Again, Brooke hasn't seen these yet, but I hope she likes them! Moving forward, darker shoes will be a higher fee, just due to the extra work that has to go into them. Whew! Glad this one's done!! Thanks for your assistance, RedSugar! I really appreciate it!!! Next stop.... bags and shirts and.... you know what else!!!
Should have another pair (Laura's) uploaded by the end of this coming weekend, and will be starting Ms. Redsugar's as soon as her rockin shoes arrive. haha. Anyone else... just let me know if you're interested!!!
on ...
