four more navels

Craig Houghton July 2nd, 2007

there’s a lot of belly-button posts here already, but how could I let a theme like that fade away.

4 simple bellybuttons. 2 in watercolor (upper left, lower-right) and 2 in oil pastel (upper-right,lower-left). these are all art trading card size w/ an attempt to make the navels appear actual size in rl. one got a bit away from me though.

Bid Waiver Illustration

Here’s another last-minute rush illo for a local online paper. I’ll admit, it’s not the most exciting subject in the world, but at least I finally found a use, as a ref, for the quill in my studio.

Farmers Market Illo

Craig Houghton January 18th, 2007

I hadn’t much time to get this last minute illustration done, so I went with a quick watercolor & pen sketch. I’m not happy with it, but the only priority was getting it done in time. The illustration was for a local paper’s article on a proposed farmers market.

btw, that funky structure is the bandshell near the possible site — the rim towards the front has an upturn, making it look deformed and doing the pic no favors.
