Flourish Christmas Tree Large Mug
This Christmas tree is made up entirely of green flourishes, red flourishes make up the tree shirt, and there’s a fancy gold star at the top. This was a popular design last Christmas and it’s looking like it will be popular this year as well. This stylized Christmas tree is available on the large mug […]
Merry, merry, merry, merry, merry. That’s exactly what this mug says. Merry. All over the place. In red, green, and gold for Christmas. The Merry Merry Mug is available here, as is a larger mug with this design. It’s also available on seven styles of Christmas ornaments. From Lines By Design Boutique.
Here’s another poinsettia illustration I did recently using Derwent Inktense Pencils on bristol. It was really just a doodle but I thought it would look cute on some Christmas ornaments. I think it works; it’s very handmade-looking, don’t you think? It originally had some ribbons curled at the top, as if the whole thing was […]
Here’s a little poinsettia illustration I did last year using the gradient mesh feature in Illustrator. That’s how I got the green leaves turning to red petals. I added some ribbon and a dark blue background. This design is available on several Christmas ornaments and on a Christmas mug. The mug design has more of […]
I was in the mood to play around with some watercolors. Watercolor effects, that is. I tried this and I tried that and things just started to come together. That’s how the creative process works sometimes. This composition boasts hearts and tulips, a hint of a damask background, and the Eiffel Tower over which hovers […]
Mini Rose Antique Flourish Shoulder Bag
This shoulder bag features a mini rose illustration done using the Gradient Mesh feature in Illustrator. The collage in the background is a combination of antique flourishes and shadowy designs, all on the palest yellow background. This antique mini rose design is also featured on many other items, including apparel, office items, housewares, gift items, […]
Daffodil Grunge Throw Pillow features an original illustration on a composited background of flourishes, grungy bits, and an Art Nouveau decorative corner. The leafy flourishes are not characteristic of Daffodils or Jonquils, it’s just some greenery to brighten things up. The illustration was created drawn and rendered in Illustrator using the Gradient Mesh feature. I’m […]
Love, fashion, perfume, cafes, art, rich food, ornate decor. All of the these things come to mind when someone says Paris. This little composition pays homage to all we associate with that beautiful city. It’s like a love letter from Paris. The design features the Eiffel Tower, perfume bottles, dresses and dressmakers tools, a French […]
Ride Free Motorcycle and American Flag
This design is based on two older illustrations of mine. The motorcycle is modeled after my own Honda Shadow VLX, and the flag is another illustration I did as a background for a v-twin engine illustration. I combined the two, and added the gold metallic circle and the shiny gold type that reads “RIDE FREE”. […]
Living with the Throttle Wide Open
I wanted to create a design that relates the feeling of riding. When you open up that throttle, and feel the wind in your face and the warm sun on your arms, and spend a whole summer day out on the road. Riding truly is a way of life. It reminds me of when I […]
