I have lots of ideas and sketches done.I feel good about that. I sketched robots, liked the look of it, now I will have to draw them doing birthday stuff.

Also started sketching kitties. I love drawing cats, have already done a lot. So happy my brain is working with me. Now what I call the time consuming part which is the rendering of colors.

"April Showers"

This is the second drawing, April showers. I'm working on my third.

Doing some surfing on the web and came across this site. I enjoyed reading it and there are links to a couple of blogs that are really helpful like Joan Bereiger. Her blog is great for information.

New Design

"Star Student"

More Info

For those interested in licensing their art, http://www.artpromote.com/licenseart.shtml I have been researching non-stop, I have made a bunch of designs, but not enough. Hoping I will be ready in a few months. I'm a part of a licensing group in yahoo and most members are well established artists. From what I read, you pretty much got to have tons of designs to consider yourself ready.

Illustration Friday

"Duets" for Illustration Friday

Just to show how I love school plays. It's not a duet, but a group of singing children and their pets.

Facebook Page finally up and running.

Created my own page on facebook, http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Cecil-Castillo-Paplinskie/169236169787081 I'm happy about that. I've been wanting to do that for months, but didn't, so glad I did now, have to spend a few minutes a day on it.

Also today's my birthday, so happy because so many friends on facebook gave me a shout out.
