This sunshine is busy

You know the song, but have you ever realized how sad it really is? Let’s put it this way, the last stanza is -

“In all my dreams, dear, you seem to leave me
When I awake my poor heart pains.
So when you come back and make me happy
I’ll forgive you dear, I’ll take all the blame.”

And yet it’s a song sung to children.

Anyway, I’m attempting to post more often. I’ve been working on a large textbook project for a number of weeks (months even) now and while I wanted to share share some of what’s been occupying so much of my time, BUT I can’t until it’s published. So bear with me. I continually learn amazing things I can do in Illustrator. It’s been a treat/challenge to work on such a large volume of drawings ranging from the Periodic table to cell organelles and basics of DNA. Also interesting, using just one spot color and it’s tints. Someday, you will see the end result. Though with 200+ drawings, only my doting mother will want to see them all.

Instead, I will show off some paper cuttings I’ve started. Check out “Everything Else” to see some other pieces. I am hoping to put together about a dozen more in the next few days to sell on Etsy.
