A new blog and website in one

It is probably rather obvious I am not very efficient at maintaining a blog. I wasn't very good at a website either, which has led me to the decision to close this blog and its predecessor and move every thing over to wordpress where I am establishing a new blog and central site for our art.

The web address will be www.loimestudios.org, which was just much easier than trying to reclaim my previous website from HostGator, and much, much cheaper.

Look for some new art to be available soon!

My First Kickstarter Campaign

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/aerirose/publish-the-white-elephant-a-fully-illustrated-sho
I partnered with another world traveling young writer recently to illuminate a children's story and several months later we are ready to make our splash onto the scene. Its a great story with a nugget of wisdom and some artwork I am thoroughly loving to be creating.

MARDI GRAS MAMBO and ME AND WHISKEY illustrations completed

 The MARDI GRAS MAMBO illustration titled "Brass and Indians" for a collaboration with German artist Hardy C L Lochfrass for Klaus Weiland's upcoming LIVE IM MIKADO album. It is filled with awesomeness and I feel honored to be working with Klaus and Hardy on this project.

 A little detail from "Brass and Indians" just for Chela, of Medieval Moccasins.
 The Voodoo Queen detail
 The lyrics of the song are written through the bonnets of the Mardi Gras Indians and ...
 ... on the body of the gold painted Voodoo Queen.
 ME AND WHISKEY illustration for Klaus Weiland's LIVE IM MIKADO album.
 The drunkards face detail for ME AND WHISKEY.
 The Dragon detail. The design is drawn from an old Irish drawing of some controversy according to its meaning, but a few changes and it seemed the perfect illustration for man's struggle with himself and the repercussions of his decisions.

Album art for Klaus Weiland's LIVE IM MIKADO

My portion of a collaborative effort with German artist Hardy C. L. Lochfrass for Klaus Weiland's upcoming LIVE IM MIKADO album. Hardy is a phenomenal graphic designer introduced by our common friend Klaus, who if you don't know is the most amazing guitarist in the world, or as Klaus says, he's "world famous" in Germany. I think this album is going to make that much more global.

And Finally I'm Posting New Work

 "ODIN'S GIFT"  and "THE PRICE YOU PAY" by Michelle D. Sonnier which are soon to be released as well as lots of other works by her. If you like fantasy fiction, you should check her out at www.michelledsonnier.com .
