I did a lot of studies this year, pushed myself to do more backgrounds and storytelling. Not bad! Feel like I did more art than my files reflect, but whatyougonna do?

As proud as I am of the Penguin value study (Sept–and one of my first Krita pieces), Moxie’s 4th of July picture (July, probably my last Photoshop painting), and my Purrfect Christmas cover (Dec, even though I did it in Nov, SO NIENER), I’m also really happy with the scenery and storytelling pushes I did in August, October, and November. Whoo for progress!

Can one cat save a widow’s Christmas?

Myra the cat doesn’t care what time of year it is—as long as there’s wet food in her bowl, she’s happy. But her widowed mistress is struggling to get through her first Christmas alone. Good thing Myra’s got a plan—but for it to work, she’ll need to ask her arch-enemy for help!

Can Myra overcome her selfishness and bring her owner a Christmas that’s merry and bright?

The Purrfect Christmas is a family-friendly short story full of humor, heart, and a lot of fur! Read one of the twelve chapters each night before Christmas (and the epilogue on Boxing Day) for a fun new family tradition!
5,900 words.

**Featured Post** (originally posted Dec 2015)

I’m never going to be Warhammer’s core audience, but there’s a lot to like about Space Wolf lore, including GINORMOUS SNOW WOLVES!

Tried some new things on this one, am very happy with how it turned out!  Dedicated to  my Beau and all the Space Wolves he is painting on our living room table.

Blessings upon people who keep their non-video Photoshop CS2 tutorials posted!

And also to this wolfdog sanctuary for hosting an excellent breakdown on the features of true wolves vs dogs and wolfdogs.
