My contribution to MF Magazine - an illustration/felt piece of Ingrid Michaelson . I used a fine point pen and various colors of felt for her glasses, lips and nose. This Oregan-based magazine features new bands and fashion and you should check it out! To order your Summer 2008 issue right now go here.

These are some sketches that I did a little while ago while working on ideas for a Mr. Beardsley book. I just need to iron out the storyline first before I do any finalized drawings. For these I used watercolor pencils and a fine point pen.

Bird Boy with Teenie Tiny Sheep (top), Mr. Beardsley (bottom). I made a plush character that sort of resembles the blue bird character for a show in Connecticut but he ended up looking grumpy (see below). Maybe it’s because I didn’t give him a beak.

Standing at 54 inches tall, this Mr. Beardsley seen below is the biggest one to date! His bearded disguise is removable, too!

Mr. Beardsley of the corn.

Mr. Beardsley falling from the sky!

There’s a great Crammed Organisms feature in the Sept/Oct 2008 issue of Fiber Arts!

Mr. Beardsley plush are now available at the Paper Boat Boutique in Milwaukee, WI and also at The Makery in Louisville, KY. Each store carries a selection of Mr. Beardsleys with different colored disguises!
