illustration friday~shiny

"ahoy mate!" shouted little Aiden the pirate. "i believe we have sailed the high seas right into ....a treasure chest of SHINY gold and precious jewels!"

as Mac(aroon), the silly little monkey, looks on from his favorite *hiding* spot....a coconut tree ;)

AARGH!!!

(FOR SALE as a PRINT here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/101840134/ahoy-mate-reproduction)

ahoy mate!!!!

this is now FOR SALE here in my etsy shop

https://www.etsy.com/listing/101840134/ahoy-mate-reproduction

i decided to scan it before painting the name so that i could sell it as a PRINT. it is a comissioned piece for a baby named Aiden (hence the name of the ship in the photo below-the S.S. Aiden).

so...can i just say that i have a new *favorite*?!

AARGH!

progress on a pirate....

 and a cute little monkey too...;)

this is the S.S. Aiden! complete with a little pirate (by the name of Aiden-who knew?!) and a crazy little monkey named Macaroon (i couldn't resist since i placed him in a coconut tree-AND i LOVE macaroons. self-serving, i know, i know....) anyway....

this is a custom illustration/painting i am working on for a friend of my step-mom's who is about to give birth to a little boy named....(3 guesses. it starts with an "A"....)

will be done this by tomorrow. tonight MAYBE....bec i'm feeling a bit more *ambitious* than usual.....;)
