New art work

Back in April, I drew a picture of a t-rex on a bike. I liked my drawing so much that I thought I should submit it as a t-shirt design on Threadless. Well my design didn’t win, but since I can silkscreen shirts on my own, I don’t need to rely on Threadless. I did … Read More

I recently finished a new carousel book. The format is based on a children’s book I have (the story of Hansel and Gretel), it has ten pop-up pages, and the whole book folds back to create a carousel…I think carousel is the right term, but I may be mistaken. Anyway, I created my first carousel … Read More

This piece was inspired from a dream I had in which gigantic alligators were fighting each other. I thought gigantic alligators would make a really really cool visual. So I made this 16 page comic about a field trip to the Everglades gone wrong. There are no words, just pictures. Also, this comic has a … Read More

Here’s another print in my “feral children” series. This print is inspired from the book, by Joseph Kessel “The lion”. On the left is the picture colored digitally, and on the right is the silkscreened print. This print was a bit more difficult to color match, especially since I was dealing with four transparent colors. … Read More

Here’s an illustration inspired by my experience with pigeons (as a little girl). The image on the left is the digital image from which I printed my silkscreen separations. The one on the right, is the silkscreen print.

I decided a couple of months ago to enter the Fiction Project at the Brooklyn Art Library. I decided to use the opportunity, with the very real deadline of May 2, to work on a autobiographical comic I’ve been wanting to do for two years. Because it’s an autobiography, I’ve been stressing over finding the … Read More
