Acrylic on canvas
4''x5''

J'expérimente avec mon crayon d'or et mon encre de chine qu'on ne voit pas très bien sur la photo.

I experiment with my Gold pen and china's ink. We do not see the ink very well on th picture though.

Je me suis gâtée en matériel d'artiste, j'avais besoin de plus de peinture acrylique et aquarelle. Mon copain m'a fait promettre de ne plus rien acheter car je suis compulsive dans un magasin d'artiste. ^-^ J'ai fait des nouveaux croquis dans le même genre que la première peinture et voila ce que ça donne. J'adore l'ambiance qui régnait aujourd'hui dans l'atelier. Il neigeait dehors, et les chatons près de la fenêtre, c'était doux et silencieux.
I spoiled myself with art supplies, I needed new acrylic and watercolour paint. My boyfriend made me promise that I wouldn't anything else because I get compulsive in an art store. ^-^ I did new sketches in the same style that my first painting and this is the result. I loved the ambiance today in the art room. It was snowing with the cats on the window sill, it was relaxing and quiet.

Nouveaux projets!

Acrylic on canvas

3'' x 5''

Je ne sais pas encore le nom que je lui donnerai.

I don't know yet the name I'll give it.

C'est un aperçu de ma méthode de travail. La première d'une bonne série!

You can see the work in progress of my first painting!

J'ai du temps libres! Je me suis remis à la peinture! J'ai acheté des tas de petites toiles et cadres durant l'année 2011, mais n'ai jamais eu le temps d'y touchés. Après quelques croquis d'inspiration, me voilà de retour dans mon atelier, les manches roulées! Je me suis récemment inscrite à ''Art-O-Con'', une convention d'artiste à Burlington le 6 mai prochain. Plusieurs de mes peintures seront à vendre.

I have free time! I got back to painting! I bought a bunch of small canvas and frames during the year 2011, but never got the time to touch them before now. After some sketches for inspiration, here I am back in my art room, sleeves up! I recently subscribed to the ''Art-O-Con'', a convention for artists in Burlington on May 6th. Many of my paintings will be on sale.

Je t'adore mon trésor!

2011-09-10T22:39:00.000-04:00

Et voila! J'ai décidé d'utiliser l'acrylique pour colorer la carte de fête pour ma soeur. J'ai beaucoup d'idées pour de nouvelles peintures, on voit de sketches dans la première image. Donc si je finis par finir mon cadeau d'échange de noël bientôt, vous devriez voir de nouvelles oeuvres sur mon blog! Yay!
Et voila! I decided to use acrylic paint to colour my sister's birthday card. Also, I have a lot of ideas for new paintings. You can see some hint on the top picture. So if I manage to finish soon my Christmas exchange gift, you'll see new pieces on this blog! Yay!

I love you treasure

2011-09-03T00:59:00.000-04:00

Tada! Enfin un dessin! C'est une idée que j'ai eu pour la fête de ma soeur. Elle aura 8 ans le 19 septembre. Donc je montrai le dessin fini bientôt.
Tada! Finaly something drawn! I got this idea for my sister's birthday. She's turning 8 on September 19th. I'll then show the finished drawing.

Projet BD

2011-06-23T14:09:00.000-04:00

Je me suis enfin décidé de prendre des photos pour vous donnez un aperçu de mon projet BD. J'ai beaucoup de pages alors je ne finirai pas de si tôt. Surtout que je ne me consacre pas à temps plein. J'ai commencé sur les grandes planches. Ouf! C'est du travail! Je vais faire des test couleurs bientôt.
I finally decided to take some pictures to give you a hint of my comic project. There is a lot of pages so it wont be done soon. Especially because I don't work on it full time. I started doing the big panels. Ouf! It's a lot of work! I'll do colours tests soon.

Yarr!

2011-05-15T15:01:00.000-04:00

Yarr! J'ai fais celui-ci pour un autre concours sur Sketchoholic ... J'ai réussi cette fois-ci à m'inscire avant la fin du concours! Le sujet c'est ''créature à deux dents'', mais je ne voulais pas juste faire une créature sur fond blanc. Alors j'ai fais une histoire autour hehe. Ce petit garçon sera probablement le personnage de ma première BD! Je la créé en ce moment même. J'espère pouvoir la finir pour la fin de l'été.

Yarr! I've done this for another contest at Sketchoholic ... I was able this time to subscribe to the contest before the end! The Topic is ''two teeth creature'' and I didn't want to just put a creature alone on a white background... So I made up a story hehe. This little boy is probably going to be the hero of my first comic! I am currently working on it. I hope to be able finish it by the end of the summer.

Sketchoholic

2011-05-10T21:09:00.000-04:00

J'ai fait celui-ci pour un concours de dessin sur le site Sketchoholic . Il fallait créé une mascote pour leur site. Malheureusement je n'est pas eu le temp d'entrer mon dessin sur leur site avant la fin du concours. Au moins ça m'a fait dessiner!
I've done this one for a contest on the website Sketchoholic . We had to create a mascot for there website. Unfortunately I didn't get the time to finish it before the end of the contest. At least it made me draw!

Acrilic on canvas

La voici la voilà! C'est une petite peinture que j'ai fait pour l'anniversaire de Ryan. J'aime beaucoup ce nouveau medium. J'ai acheté pleins de petites toiles cartonnées et je compte bien en faire d'autres! Qui sait, j'en vendrais peut-être un jour...
Here it is! It's a small painting I did for Ryan. I like this new media a lot. I bought a multitude of small canvas so I plan on making others! Who knows, maybe I could sell some one day...

April

2011-04-03T14:52:00.001-04:00

I started to be very creative this month. There is so many ideas fumbling in my head right now that I don't know where to start. Well here is a debut. This is a starting point for the title of my blog. I always loved Russian dolls. When I was a little girl, this was one of the things I would really like to play with. We didn't have one at home so whenever we went to my uncle's house, he had many dolls, I would play with them. Also it is fascinating the number of details and coulours. I finally got one some years ago for my birthday. So now I will make this doll a concept in this blog! I am currently trying colours in photoshop. I don't know yet if it is going to be traditionally painted or digitally. Don't hesitate to comment!

Poisson d'avril!

2011-03-20T13:16:00.000-04:00

Here is a second piece I tried with paper art. That one was for my Father's birthday. This time I added shading with watercolor pencils, but decided to not put water on it... So basically it's just colour pencils hehe I am glad this time I was able to explain to the 'framing' dude what I wanted! Last time was pretty constraining.

St-Patty's

2011-03-19T00:38:00.000-04:00

Yeaaah! We feel a little more of the spirit with the colours isn't it? So my first Saint-Patrick happened to be a blast! Yep definitely something to do again. But I wouldn't mind next time to have it on a friday night, so you don't need to get up in the morning for work...hehe... Maybe I should have drawn a before/after party.

Life drawing

2011-03-15T21:46:00.000-04:00

Special two drawings tonight. This life drawing class went pretty well. Last week was bad though. ''You'll do a million bad drawings before having one good'', anyway that's what we say...

St-Patty's

2011-03-14T18:52:00.000-04:00

This Thursday I am going to celebrate my first Saint-Patrick! I missed my chance last year but this time, I am ready! It will be colored soon. Tata!

Life drawing

2011-02-22T21:44:00.000-05:00

We went to a life drawing class and that is my best piece! It has been a long time since I've drawn models.We are going to do that every week from now on. You might see some other sketches soon!

Duo

2011-02-13T19:20:00.000-05:00

The third of my fish series. I tried my new watercolour pencils instead of normal watercolour. I think I still prefer the normal way of painting but it was worth trying.

Scribbles and sketches

2011-02-03T22:30:00.000-05:00

I think it was time for these little ones to get out of the sketchbook and present themselves. The first one I've done it while waiting at the airport because the plane was delayed. There was too much wind up there so we would arrive too soon in England and the other airport don't like when it happens. They never like when the schedule is changed. The other drawing are just some designs. I like drawing kids. TTFN

Bad dog!

2011-01-15T12:09:00.000-05:00

It is actually not a dog, but a wolf/aries. My boyfirend asked me to sketch a mixt of these two animals. He want to model in 3D the creature and make a figurine out of it. I am curious to see the result!

Merry Christmas!

2010-12-28T14:08:00.000-05:00

Here is my latest piece! I did a super sculpey sculpture for my brother this Christmas. Each year my family does a secret Santa gift exchange. All the gift has to be homemade. Each participant give one gift and receive one in return. I love that concept. Also, we have the whole year to think and make the gift. So I already know to whom I am giving next year. Merry Christmas everyone!

Silly girl

2010-12-09T20:34:00.000-05:00

Last weekend I bought new pen for inking. I usually cleanup my drawings digitally so this one is my first handmade. I do cleanup with graphite pencils since I am small, but with the ink I am usually scared to kill the drawing. I mean, there is no Ctrl+Z or eraser. ^_^ I want to color it eventually to see if it's nice...

Fish 2

2010-12-09T18:42:00.000-05:00

Hey! I told you I was going to make a fish series. Personally I like this one better. He's more funny. What do you think? It looks pretty ill with all these spots... I caught the flu, maybe I needed to reflect my state of being in the exercise.
Anyway, I started reading a couple of comics from ''Front Froid'' and it's pretty neat! I went to a small Comic Con last weekend and I happened to win the three tomes. It has many stories from different artists of Québec.

Exotic bird

2010-10-16T15:23:00.000-04:00

Here is a new experience I did for my mom's birthday. It's made of cut-out papers. I tried to make it with a little of depth. I liked it a lot so i'll make others eventually.

My first doll

2010-10-16T14:59:00.000-04:00

This little doll was made for my 7 year old sister. She likes playing with everybody's hair so I made it a lot of hair. I used two balls of wool hehe... The face is embroidered. It was a fun experience.

little fish

2010-08-16T19:36:00.000-04:00

I started doing watercolor painting this weekend. Last time I did some i was 12 or something. I had to think long to choose where i was going to put the rubber gum hehe. I think I'll start a fish serie to practice my technique.

Hyeeek!

2010-08-16T18:25:00.000-04:00

Hey! It's been a while I haven't post anything. Here a piece i made for the Art Sketch Group contest. It is on the theme of ''Nightmares''. There is so many contestants that are good! The prize is a drawing from Chris Sanders!

Grompy!

TaDa!

step-by-step

2010-06-06T21:52:00.000-04:00

I've tried a new way to colour that I saw in a video that showed these incredible artists ''Greg Baldwin'' and ''Dave Guertin's'' techniques. I think it went pretty well, it's a good method...

Grompy!

2010-06-06T17:26:00.000-04:00

WOuah! Finally something good enough to show hihi! Since I started working as an Illustrator, I forgot i could draw at home too... The white page disease just passed! I will show more update soon.

It was easier and faster to do the second time, the first time I didn't have a good method.

Flash Animation test

2009-12-17T17:47:00.000-05:00

Here is an animation I've done with Flash Cs3. I had fun, it's pretty much like Harmony.

I still need to familiarize with the shortcuts, I keep pressing the wrong buttons ^^

Animation test

2009-12-16T14:44:00.000-05:00

I forgot that I had done some animation roughs on Digital pro. These are done directly on the graphic tablet. I kind of prefer to animate on paper but for an animation test it's fine. For this exercise and wanted to exaggerate the movement, few say I animate stiff *shriek*
