Wishing... /  by Jessica Peterson


I keep finding myself wishing for things.

such as...

I wish max would stop chewing on things and would act like a grown up
I wish I never needed sleep
I wish plane tickets were as cheap as bus fares 
I wish donuts had the same calorie count and carrots ( i would eat donuts all day)
I wish I could buy a house with an orange fridge and a yard with a purple garden
I wish there was a beach outside my back door
I wish I had the 5d mark II camera 
I wish Jimmy, Oliver and Abby were closer
I wish it wasn't so hot outside

and on and on....


Nevernude Is The New Skinny Jean /  by Jessica Peterson



for some reason this will not post right side up... I have tried everything. 

Nevernude drawings... been doing a lot of them.

here are some themed nevernude cutoffs.  If you are unsure what this "nevernude" thing is youtube it, Arrested Development.  I am a slave to pop culture what can I say.

New Post Of Old Work /  by Jessica Peterson


These are some old images I did for a still life class at Art Center.  It actually turned out to be a pretty fun project and have been thinking of revisiting and expanding on it.  I didn't use photoshop on any of these.  I would cut images and manually layer them to create shadow and depth.  (now that I look back I should have just used photoshop but I really enjoyed staying up late cutting tiny tiny birds out and making mini balloons out of clay to create dimension to everyday worlds.

So here you go.







Tiny Thoughts Become Great Adventures /  by Jessica Peterson


An exciting place for me to dwell has opened up to me,  although I have to say I have been looking for a new one for a while now.

From Alice in Wonderland:  Either the well was very deep, or she fell very slowly, for she had plenty of time as she went down to look about her and to wonder what was going to happen next.

I am excited for Adventure.  





Mc Staches /  by Jessica Peterson


I drew this after hearing a funny story last night .
Tyler was at church and overheard one guy say to another who had giant eyebrows and a tiny spars stache, "when is your mustache going to grow up?"
I couldn't stop laughing when I heard that.

Max sleeping. sometimes I put things in his mouth to make funny teeth.


Hiking with Max (yes... I am a loner during the days and I spend a lot of time with my dog...)
The picture on the left is a squished snake. gross.


Huge rain drops before a huge storm


Car washing


Oliver stole my phone one morning and took photos of me sleeping and his toes

Bowling

I can't live without: /  by Jessica Peterson

Pilot Hi-Tec-C Pens. I really can't do anything without them. I have OCD about a couple of things and using these pens is one of them. I usually stock up on these little babies at Art Center and I make them last to the last drop of ink. I honestly can't use anything else.




And of course these things. I just bought a new one this morning (joy).

I will also add to the list:
Diet Coke (as i sweetly sip on one at this very moment)
A car full of gas and a far off destination- windows down please
Cookies with chocolate chips inside
Internet with all of it splendor
Cameras
The dog
My music
Colors
Minty gum and sour candies
Mountains and Lakes and Trees
Witnessing large crowds of birds in flight
Pointing out akward people with akward characteristics
Chalkboards
Laughing till the tummy aches
Good illustrations and pop art
Genuine people
Avacados and chips

Putting together a Photo/Art group! Join us! /  by Jessica Peterson




My friend Sarah and I are photographers/crafters/arters.  We spend at least one day a week together chatting about photography, looking at creative blogs and planning crafts and mini business ventures.  We have been wanting to put together a type of club/meeting evening with others who feel and do the same as us.  Let me know if you are interested in joining a group where you can share projects, bounce ideas off of other creatives for feedback and simply being with others who share a passion for creative thinking, the more the merrier. Please comment below and leave your email if you would like to be contacted for our first official group meeting!  Most likely we will be meeting on weekday evening within the next few weeks.  This can be a really great thing if you want it to be.

Love

Jessica
