Bird Ornaments



So... I've been away for far too long working on Christmas gifts and such. Thought I'd fly in and let you see something I've been up to. These ornaments are for my father in law who loves to watch birds in his backyard. I sculpted them from Model Magic Clay then painted them with acrylic paints. Let me know what you think. Merry Christmas!

The Richardson's CD Cover (possibly)

So I'm terribly blessed to have such gifted friends, and the Richardsons are no exception. They sing and compose their own music. It takes your breath away sometimes. Their love for Jesus rings true in their songs. Perhaps I can talk them into making a youtube and I''l show you. Anyways, here is a thought I had for their CD Cover.

IF- Pretend

Okay, so let's "pretend" they are not monsters of the trees. They don't await an unsuspecting human to walk under their perch and then "BAM!" throw all bits of natures ammo at you. Anything from helicopter pods, walnuts, and, my favorite, digested gumball nuts. Be fooled by their sweet faces. Ignore plight in life to overtake your backyards.
But as stated in the beginning we ARE pretending. So gaze on their cute faces and their adorable scurrying. Say it with me... "AWWWWWWE"

Ol' George

Well, after I did Abe the only logical president to do was George. So here he is complete with a powder wig and pink blush. I don't know who decided that this was the look of important people. Someone got a laugh out of this fad that's for sure. Let me know what you think!

Mommy Calling Cards

These are some Mommy Calling Cards I created for my etsy shop. The point is that when you meet a possible new playmate for your child you hand the caregiver a card. Each card template is customized with your child's name, your name, phone number, and email. In other words no more fishing around in your purse for an old reciept to write on. Check out other templates and papergoods I make at my shop! juliehammondart.etsy.com

IF- Memories (aka Mr. President)


Ahhhh... remember the old days? Where have all the good presidents gone?
So... I tried my hand at illustrating a president. I'm pretty impressed that I can actually do a likeness that looks likes someone. I don't think I've ever tried that before. It was fun! Who should I do next? I'd love to hear your thoughts, or read them anyway.

IF- Baby

Teeter, toddle, coo, ah-choo, slurp, burp, sleep, so sweet. Don't you just love babies?
