Golly it's 2010, where have i been?

noooo
Sorry people that i havent posted in quite a long while. so many plans, so many stumbling blocks. mostly my own health, depression and chronic fatigue.
But i shall not dwell for it is a New Year!! the reminder that the past twelve months have gone by and life goes on. There is so much i would like to achieve, and i will jolly well try!


Day by Day.


Life goes on.


Much love x

batty birthday card

noooo
Im full of cold, uuurggle bluuurge.
Hear's a little birthday pressie i drew in marker pen for my dear [info]come_pick_me_upIt's Selina Kyle aka Catwoman sitting pretty, based on a teeny tiny doodle he liked in my sketchbook. 
                                                        
On another note Halloween is coming up and this year i am dressing up in an orange boiler suit to be Poison Ivy  in Arkham Asylum- the comic book outfit style rather than the new game one. 
                                 
Im also making some Harley Quinn accessories do i can be her in Arkham on another occasion- probably just for fun!! I love cosplay and always like to do my own take on characters. Illustrations of costumes then photos to follow!!
Have also been working on some illustrated accessories to sell in the future....

Later days  ^_^

Coming soon.....

noooo


Coming Soon,        Miss-Jennie's Doodle Blog!!!
In other words my everyday happenings will be posted in picture form, however mundane they be!!
I shall be including back stories that are stored in my brain, hence they may lack exact accuracy.... and my dream blog!

IncludingMalcolm the Pigeon!!  What am i Wearing?  Pilates,  Cosplay,  and lots of TEA!!

The blog will not be all fun and games, it will be an extension of my Depression Diary, a project from 2006 that i still hold very close to my heart ( and mind), ( For now go see my website; i may post it up here sometime.)

Stay Tuned!!!

x x

I'm still here!!

noooo


Gosh i haven't posted in a loooooong while.
Will post a proper update uber soon.

In the mean time, here's a little photo of something iv been doing:

It's a gift for Cal Slayton, one of my favourite comic book illustrators,
it's a 'fan-art' of his character Emma from 'Spookytown'. Just watercolours and
a bit of coloured pencil, nothing fancy.

on a side note, iv just noticed Wil Wheaton made the 'Where are they now' pages of Heat Magazine. heehee, what a star.

be back soon, honest x

Twilight?

noooo

"His skin, white despite the faint flush from yesterday’s hunting trip, literally sparkled, like thousands of tiny diamonds were embedded in the surface." Twilight chapter 13.
 
*cough*

I have NOT read nor seen Twilight and find this whole concept hilarious. When exposed to the sun vampire skin *sparkles* like glitter. yes. really. Anyway i drew a little doodle in my sketchbook and scanned it in to add some colour. Bella is clearly a bit very obsessed with the sparkly Edward.
   swoon.
 
 
Oh dear, apologies to anyone who actually loves this Twilight, beautiful vampire stuff....
Bella and Edward belong to Stephenie Meyer c. twilight c


For everyone else here are a couple of sketches of original characters iv been doodley dooing in pen and pencil.

apologies and smiles

noooo

ok so i apologise for moaning a teeny bit in my previous posts, iv been rather bored out of my mind at home on my own. i know its not really my friend's faults, they've been working, or unwell. Still, some invites out from them would be greatly received.  ^_^


so apart from trying, and failing, to form some sort of social life just what have i been up too eh?......

Well i am feeling quite happy in myself and haven't been fretting too much, which is an achievement for me.
I'v been having a few really vivid dreams (i have a somewhat photographic memory of the locations etc in my dreams, even from waaaay back), one of which i am currently developing further. It was like the opening of some great  mystery adventure, set in both 1900 and the present day. I immediately wrote down and storyboarded the dream upon awakening, and am now developing the characters and possible future story.

      

Im not going to give too much away at this stage, but it's been a fun project!

i am also enjoying this week=
gazing at my three (so far?!) watchmen action figures..... all the flashback ones, including the comedian varient. Aren't they lovely!
watching all the baby birds, and fox cubs in the garden, oh and the baby squirrels and mr and mrs hedgehog.....
my favourite webcomics, a special feature on them coming soon.
listening to Mr Hudson and Kanye west collab, and little boots.

oh i could ramble on.......... i shall learn to control myself. not today.

byeeee for now x

sunshine and sketches

noooo
Produced a couple of personal sketch cards for some very important peoples, just pens and markers. Feel like doing some more of these, maybe in exchange for a few shiny coins  ^_^ , had great fun doodling in front of the telly. 
                                                   


On another note i'm feeling a bit better in myself, considering several knockbacks this last couple of weeks, im finally getting better at 'getting over' thing's, i'm not gonna be constantly dragged down. I got an amazing job, then lost it again; my precious birdy flew out the window while i was out, and it rained for my birthday. BUT the sun is shining, and i am the happiest i have been for a while. Now i just need people to enjoy it with. I am my happiest when i am with people.


Final note:
I do wish people would communicate with me more, i like to have plans confirmed rather than sit on my bum all day, only then to find i'm not doing anything in the evening either. It's frustrating, amd doesn't hel[p me mentally. 
Please dont get annoyed if i constantly txt or make demands, it's an awkward way of trying to express my love for you, mistaken for annoyingness, when it should be happiness.

the original team rubbish

noooo
Here it is, the Team Rubbish strip drawn back in 2005 during our first degree year. I remember Zoe and i had a superman style logo painted onto our studio space wall in Art Foundation. jeepers.

Apart from supplying it's name to my blog Team Rubbish probably won't appear that much, except in the form of some random sketches of my lovely friends.


Greetings

noooo
This is my first entry on this blog, so i'l briefly introduce myself!
I'm Jennie, i'm an illustrator and sequential artist, and have a BA Hons Degree in Illustration. I'm a bit of a geek.
I enjoy drinking tea and reading webcomics. I like to buy action figures.
I plan to regularly post my doodlings and work-in-progress on this blog for all to observe.

( BTW 'Team Rubbish' is a superhero collective i created in 2004. It consists of myself and many of my friends, all recreated with the mighty pen, with randomly added super powers and general comic style greatness.)
