Call for Models!
I am putting a call out for people who bought my Alphabet toddler tees for their little one. Since my boy isn't big enough to model for me yet ^_^ I have a very important request:
I am soon to be featured on a really cool shopping website called
Rare Bird Finds
And I want to give my online presence some adorable pizzaz! The shirts look pretty boring just sitting on the ground.
I would LOVE a picture of your lil' cutie hamming it up for the camera in one of my shirts. I would also really love a pic of a toddler reading and/or coloring in the comic book too!
WonderToast Shopping Link (if you haven't bought one yet!)
You can email me digital files at
annamationstudios@yahoo.com
I would really REALLY appreciate this! I'm not sure when my feature is coming up on Rare Birds, so I'd like pictures ASAP.
Thanks a bazillion!!

Comic Con 2007 Pictures!
So I'm back from SD Comic Con, and it was a blast! This was my first year attending, let alone exhibiting! It was SO much fun, but also really tiring. In that case, I suppose I fit in pretty well with the Tired Girl Collective! They were a blast to work with:
Pictured above are Sherri, Jodi, and me. Karen's not in this picture since she was also working at the Bongo booth...Our table was a huge success, attracting a mostly female audience, being all in pink! It was perfect for us though, since our wares are very cute - a niche thing at this particular event.
Here is my section of stuff - I had my new comic, toddler shirts, my bilingual children's book, and some original paintings (which were almost sold out by the time we took this picture)
Here is me and my friend Aydrea with the illustrious Jaba! You can see the Bun in the Oven maternity shirt I wore too - this and my princess leia maternity shirt were huge hits. In fact, they were so popular, I'll be adding them to my cafe press store shortly.
And lastly this was my favorite costume there - she's the Katamari prince! My other favorite was a Prisoner costume from the 1960s tv show, but I didn't get a picture of him. Well...Be Seein' You!

Bunny Bake Sale!
This was a commission for a young lady's 25th birthday (count the cupcakes...there is even one to grow on in the oven!) She is in culinary baking school and loves rabbits. This was a very fun commission to do...can you tell?
My client told me that her favorite color is red, so I became inspired by this 1950s vintage stove...

Wedding Gift Commission
A few months ago I was commissioned to paint this for a wedding gift to this lovely couple. They got married in Connecticut at the New Haven Lighthouse - romantic, no? You can see how the final painting turned out, the framed piece, and one of the many reference photos I had to work with.
This painting is gouche on cold press. I love doing projects like this - the concept is always fun to dream up with the client! ^_^ I hear the couple loved it, which is always satisfying news for the artist!

SNAP a picture!
I've been bad at keeping up with my blog lately, mostly because I have been very busy with commissioned paintings. Here is one I did on canvas for a client who wanted a photography-themed acrylic painting. It has actually been quite a while since I've worked in acrylic...ever since I discover how much I love gouche! Anyway, how do you think this one turned out?

Working out my web design blues...
So I'm preparing to get all my new work to you by rolling out a new website and all this fun stuff...the problem is, I'm no good with web design software! Basic html coding I'm good with, but GoLive? Any tips? Anyway, I'm practicing with my parent's restaurant here in Denver (which is, by the way, delish!)...its called Oliveto and this will eventually become a part of their new online look:
