Emmeline & Sebastian, born November 29, 2011

On November 29, 2011 we welcomed our twins Emmeline Rose and Sebastian Thomas. Our little bundles of love are requiring most of my time now, so I won’t be able to take on any large or time consuming projects for a while. But if you have a small illustration project with a deadline that isn’t tomorrow, feel free to contact me! I’d be happy to take a look.

Who Wants to be Friends with a Cactopus?

sgrobinsonart — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 11:09:24 +0000

Written by Amy Shaw, Illustrated by Susan G. Robinson

Imagine a gigantic cactopus (part cactus and part octopus) named Pat that yearns for nothing simpler than friendship. Pat lives in a potted pet store, where year in, year out, the smaller, cuter plantimals are whisked away to attractive suburban homes. But no one wants Pat.

IF: Bicycle

Just a lovely day for a bicycle ride…

I just had to include this one too – one of the assignments when you apply to RISD is to draw a bicycle. When I was still at ECU, someone from my dorm had parked this bike outside and (lucky for me) didn’t move it for at least a month!

IF: Journey

So I missed Illustration Friday last week, but I’m going to put up my “Nighttime Journey” illustration anyway…

because I really did do it just for that (just a little late!)
