Rapunzel







I've been meaning to finish this paper illustration for the last four weeks and I finally decided to do it (mainly b/c it was taking up space on my working desk and was driving me nuts). When I create these paper illustrations it's like putting together a puzzle and I try not to glue anything til I'm close to the end in case I decide to change my mind. However, this means that it's also really easy to loose these tiny pieces of paper that look like trash so I have to try and avoid moving it as much as possible. Now with school starting up I needed my space back and finished this as fast as possible. Actual size is 9" x 20". Total time it took from concept to framing....15 hours?

Jake Paper Sculpt

When I went home this past winter break I realized how old my dog was getting. It made me pretty sad and so I think I may have over showered him with hugs. I imagine this is how he probably felt. (By the way, he's not a fox, he's just a red husky which makes him look like a fox.)
