Ice Cream Girl

A sweet treat, that has lost its way. This cute scene of a girl who’s lost her ice cream was inspired by colorful, cute, Japanese kawaii art. I really love this style, and I spent a lot of time on the details, like her ladybug and bee friends. The color scheme also took some time, because as I’ve found out, a rainbow is not just a rainbow. The varieties are endless! This image looks great on baby and kid apparel, as well as canvas bags.

Play Well

Everyone knows a little kid like this. Or perhaps even an adult? Either way, some people should just come with a warning. “I don’t play well with others.” And this little red-headed, grumpy guy, is a great way to make that known!

Girl in Kilt

Rachel — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 21:49:09 +0000

Yay! Start of a new series. I decided to explore my heritage a little, while still keeping things cute and colorful of course This copper-topped cutie is wearing a traditional skirt of Scotland called a Kilt. In the past they were worn mostly by men. The pattern and colors however were very specific. Each family would have their own “Tartan”, a combination of their own pattern and colors. That way, everyone knew what Clan you belonged to!

Modern Gods

Rachel — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 02:07:55 +0000

I decided to get a little political with this one. The image is a collage of many aspects of modern society. I used the idea of a religion of money to show how, in today’s society, people tend to worship things that do not have their best interests in mind.

Maiden, Mother, Crone

Fetch

This little one has some attitude! I wanted to try and convey some real emotion with this piece . What started out as something sweet, ended up going in a totally different direction. Sometimes it’s good to break away from the everyday characters. And for some reason, this girl is really popular on Zazzle doggie clothes

Wizard of Oz

Rachel — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 01:59:25 +0000

This is my take on a childhood favorite. I had a love/hate relationship with the movie growing up (the flying monkeys scared me lol) But now, I can really appropriate the wealth of characters the world of Oz has to offer. They make great subjects!

Here we have the main group, consisting of the Tin-man, Scarecrow, Cowardly Lion, Dorthy, and of course, Toto. If you look closely, you’ll see the Tin-man being a little mischievous.

Maiden, Mother, Crone

Rachel — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 06:40:44 +0000

Hooray! It’s finally finished! Just in time to start a new one

This is a new vector image I’ve been working on for some time, that I am happy to be able to share with you. The three woman are representative of a neopagan, wiccan goddess known as the Maiden, Mother, Crown. She is often symbolized as the moon in it’s three phases of waxing, full, and waning.

She’s an important symbol, as many aspects of neo-paganism pay homage to the natural cycles of life and nature. Like the seasons in a year, the three woman represent three important phases in a woman’s life. The Maiden, represents youth and anticipation, the mother, fertility and new life, the crone, wisdom and the end of a successful cycle.

While I am not a Wiccan myself, I can appreciate the idea of such a symbol. All three life phases co-existing in the same being gives the impression of a never ending process. It becomes clear that, while birth will inevitably lead to death, death too, must unavoidably return to birth.
