Every Little Thing She Does Is Magik

Good Saturday Morning! Here in the Tampa Bay area we are in our 12th consecutive day of rain here. Deena was looking forward to spending all day Monday on the beach but I don't think the weather is going to cooperate. Strange to think we live on the Sunshine Coast in the Sunshine State.

Today we have a commission for Carlos. He wanted something like the Magik piece I did earlier this month. So the trick is to come up with something similar but unique. And here she is. This was done in mixed media on 11" x 17" Canson Mi-Teintes paper. Thanks again for the commission Carlos!

Great sketch. Love the colors!; May 23, 2009 at 10:28 AM

Thanks Craig. Looks like Daytona has been hit pretty hard. Saw more pictures on the news and we are no where as bad off. Just wet.; May 23, 2009 at 10:51 AM

Royce Thrower said...: This is an excellent piece...in fact all the Magik renditions have been terrific! Don't know how many other artists use this brand of paper for sketches. commissions, but they should definitely look into it...post haste!!; May 23, 2009 at 4:27 PM
Karen said...: Yeah, I don't think we'll be hitting the beach anytime the week-end either! Oh well more time to go see Star Trek tomorrow...

I'm loving all this Magik! Although now I have that song stuck in my head ;); May 23, 2009 at 7:05 PM

Gene Gonzales said...: Thanks Darren!

Thanks Royce! But if everybody starts doing the Canson Cuties, I will have to come up with something else. ;)

Thanks Karen! My brain gets hooked on songs too. This one has been bouncing in my head since yesterday morning. Oy!

Thanks Brian!; May 24, 2009 at 4:54 PM

Don't let the rain get your down, more nice days to come at the beach this summer!
