I like your stuff but you are probably going to run into some copywrite problems with the cat in the first picture since it is very similiar to the syndicated Hobbs the Cat and of course useig the copy writed Star Wars logo. It is fine for show caseing your considerable skill however.

If you are wanting to sell you might want to go talk to the Small Business Administration and have them hook you up with a SCORE (Senior Corp of Retired Executives) so you have a qualified mentor to save you some costly mistakes. They have people from every possible professional background.

Also as a minority (female) owned business you get prefverential status to bid for illustrateing state publications which can be much more lucrative than you might imagine. Good luck.

Instead of making new topics for each piece of art I do, I'll just continue to post art in here.

My guest cover pencils for a comic from Josh Pierce



Here is the quick thumbnail sketch(es) that I did before working on the final cover pencils

Oh that makes sense. I don't keep up with the stuff that appeals to the kids as much as I should. Drives my Grands crazy.
