Late

Poor little bird is running late - his watch battery ran down.

Poof

I had some difficulty with "poof" - the word made me think of magical...of something unexpected. In this case, it turned out to be a game of tug-o-war between a squid and a fatty bird. Poof!

Enough

Just enough wing for take-off!

Hoard

Watercolor and ink by Miz K

A bit of explanation: I'm no slouch in the kitchen, but the one bit of naughty comfort food I just can't give up or replace is Mac and Cheese from the famous blue box. Ever since we relocated to Switzerland, I've hoarded the occasional box of Mac and Cheese that shows up in the mail to be broken out in case of emergency, hangover, or home-sickness. Mmmmm!

Forgotten

Wide

"Open wide!"

Electricity

Revisiting the squid and his kite... who knew they had so many ribs!

I'm not thrilled with the kite but I'm pretty happy with the bottom two-thirds of this one.

Wrinkles

Homage

An homage to Picasso and cubism - and, of course, a squid.

Thank you Arsmor for my new watercolors - they are beyond amazing - ting!

Pet Peeves

When your ink has plans of its own...

Heavy

Someone got a new home loan....

Garden

Nothing like home-grown food fresh from the garden!

Watercolor and ink by Miz K. Come back soon to see what Ars has cooked up... it's going to be nifty!

Leap

Blanket

Watercolor and ink. The original doesn't have a border, however when scanned, the colors lost some of their subtlety and I had to add one to keep the painting from falling off the page. Ah well.

Stitch

I have a "stitch" squid coming as well, but thought I would go with the shrimp this time. I think he's knitting a scarf... I don't know who he is looking at outside of the picture...


Comments welcome!

100 Percent

I was 100% out of ideas on this one, so I went with another squid. 100% goofy. You may notice the bubbles are shaped vaguely like a 100...

Soar

I finally got an idea for "Soar" late on Thursday night and by the time I finished penciling and then inking it in, it was almost one in the morning and I needed to head to bed. I'm hoping to add color to this later on tomorrow or this weekend, but wanted to get it submitted! Happy New Years, all!
