<br />
I've switched from sharing illustrations here to blogging my <a href="http://itllglowonyou.tumblr.com/search/drawing">drawings over on Tumblr</a>. There you can see new projects, sketches, and designs I've been working on.<br />
<br />
I'm also <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/itllglowonyou">selling prints, mugs, and things on Etsy</a>. <br />
<br />
I have a few art shows coming up this fall/winter! You can <a href="http://www.facebook.com/ItllGlowOnYouIllustrations">read about them on Facebook</a>.<br />
<br />
Check them out, and thank you for reading the blog.<br />

I just finished reading Colin Meloy & Carson Ellis' <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Wildwood-Chronicles-Book-I/dp/0062024701/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1352124990&sr=8-1&keywords=carson+ellis">Wildwood</a></i>. It is a fantastic story about a girl who travels into a forbidden forest with her friend to save her kidnapped baby brother. The heroine likes to ride bikes and draw birds. All images by <a href="http://www.carsonellis.com/">Carson Ellis</a> and found on <a href="http://www.designsponge.com/2011/11/wildwood.html">Design Sponge</a> (check out their review of the book), unless otherwise noted.<br />

Every year, <a href="http://www.twitter.com/chriscardinal">Chris Cardinal</a> & the t-shirt site <a href="http://threadless.com/">Threadless.com</a> run a cake-decorating contest, where entrants bake cakes that look like the shirts. I enjoy cake decorating, and their shirts, so I decided to make one again this year (here's <a href="http://www.threadcakes.com/entries/view/1184">last year's</a>.)<br />
<br />
The design my cake is based on is called <a href="http://www.threadless.com/product/419/The_Sound_of_Silents">The Sound of Silents</a>. You can see my full entry <a href="http://www.threadcakes.com/entries/view/1522">on the Threadcakes site here</a>.<br />

Inspired by John Campbell of </span><a href="http://picturesforsadchildren.com/" style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">Pictures For Sad Children</a><span style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">, the hourly comic consists of one comic (panel) for every hour you're awake; a visual diary. <a href="http://itll-glow-on-you.blogspot.com/2011/02/hourly-comic.html">Here's last year's comic</a>. It's funny to see how they are similar, and I wonder how they'll change next year. (Right click to view larger image in a new tab.)</span><br />
