Illustration Friday - SPACE, TWISTED2 & A Really Bad Picture!

I finally feel like an Illustration Friday veteran! Because when I saw this week's challenge word was SPACE, I immediately said to myself, "Hey! We already did space!!" Granted, it WAS 2 years ago, but aren't there enough words in the dictionary to not have duplicates after only 2 years? OK. So maybe I'm just being persnickety. (read: cranky) I mean, there IS more than one meaning to the word SPACE, afterall. But the second I saw it, my mind instantly went to this guy, who was a favorite of mine during my first year at Ill Friday. I LOVE this little ET hot-rodder! So I'm posting him again, like it or not. :)


BUT, just so you don't think I'm a total slacker, I did another TWISTED from last week's prompt. I think I like TWISTED2 better. Pretty much anyone who has ever had a dog tied up in their yard has experienced something like this, right?


And finally, there's THIS....not exactly a flattering picture (understatement!!), but I felt obligated to buy a copy anyway. (But just one!) I don't even think it's worthy of bumping one of my friends' kids drawings off my fridge!!! But hey, I'm famous.........sort of...........  :)  To see more (read: BETTER) photos from the book launch party for the most recent children's book I illustrated, Sunny the Sneaker, please check out last week's post.

  1. Yeah, he's a good one, even if it is 2 years old. His spaceship looks like it's driven by balloon power. I wonder, does it make that sound that balloons make when you let them go?

  4. I'm feeling like a veteran too. I think there might be something wrong with the world if we can only look at a piece of art once. If I liked it the first time, odds are I'll like it again. Cute puppy too. Congrats on your fame!

  6. I've always loved hooking up with IF. But I don't get any traffic from it. I'm starting to lose interest. I'll probably still link up now and then though. But you've been doing a great job with the themes. Even the repeats!
