have you ever been sitting at work and thought, "hey! i should draw something for this supergirl meme!."?
well i did today... yet all i had at my desk was some toned paper, a black fine tip sharpie, a chunky red sharpie, a blue highlighter, a few misc. crayons and markers... and some white out. i went for it anyway, i decided that she needed a winter look. maybe the -3 temperature this morning inspired me?

You are a master with that wite out!!
smarbaby From: [info]smarbaby Date: February 17th, 2007 01:09 am (UTC) (Link)
it's the best office-supply based art tool there is!

and i still have like... 15 bottles of it in one of my drawers. i'm always looking for a new use for it ;-)

I should try my hand at some wite-out design, so far all I do with it is the boring stuff like fixing mistakes on my paperwork :P

Katie Cook!

Can I feature her on my website and point to you? I did the same for Les McClaine the other day.

Also: I got the books but haven't even opened them yet. I was intolerably sick for a few days.

aww shucks... i'd love it if ya' did!

and that's a damn fine supergirl drawing... i saw it the other day and couldn't get over how spunky she was!

thank you!

It's unfair one person being so insanely talented.
When you're totally famous you must write a how-to book for all the young artists who want to be you.

thanks dan!
and if i wrote a book on how to be me the first step would be "get a cat".
madush69 From: [info]madush69 Date: February 17th, 2007 04:53 pm (UTC) (Link)
That's the first step in my book too!

hooray for the principle of using what you've got on hand!

you + non-white paper + white out = such wonderful results. The details of tone on her skirt are just awesome. Cool leg-stuff design, too. I'd wear it!

ps: email for you!

i'm a big fan of toned paper. i'm lucky enough to work in a paper studio so there's always plenty about for me to doodle on ;-)

A winterized Supergirl! Very creative. And well done with so little to work with. I'll bet cave drawings would have been much cooler (and cuter) if you'd been doing them!
smarbaby From: [info]smarbaby Date: February 17th, 2007 01:14 am (UTC) (Link)
there are white out drawings on the wall of the inside of my cubicle... those are *kind* of like cave paintings...

Nice work! I love it (and can totally sympathize with your creative choice.)
smarbaby From: [info]smarbaby Date: February 17th, 2007 02:06 am (UTC) (Link)
gotta' love using what you have.

my next piece shall be sculpted out of peanut butter and doritos!

Don't forget the cottage cheese for "flair!"

dammit, why does there have to be another one of these?!! like i don't have enough to do!! >:P
smarbaby From: [info]smarbaby Date: February 17th, 2007 02:05 am (UTC) (Link)
it's your duty as mr. popular to participate! ;-)

Oh my gosh I am in love with this drawing... i`m going to school in the UP so i can totally relate to it. Oh do you make any little monsters by chance?

I think it's a great design. I like how you kept the skirt and cape look withouth making them improactical. Very nicely done.
smarbaby From: [info]smarbaby Date: February 18th, 2007 02:37 pm (UTC) (Link)
thank you!
