'Nightlights' by Veronica V. Jones

Nightlights

August 9, 2010

Only 24 days left until DragonCon opens it’s doors, and the Moonshines studio is a flurry or maniacal printing, painting, cutting and matting.  Here’s a preview of a piece making its debut at DC, “Nightlights”.  Dragons, especially the pint sized dragonets I first read in the Anne McCaffrey books, have always been a special love of mine, and this was a blast to do.  Enjoy!

Countdown to Dragoncon!

August 6, 2010

It’s been a busy year and I’m itching to show off the new art I’ve created at next month’s DragonCon.  To ramp up, I’ve been posting sneak peaks through my Facebook fan page (http://www.facebook.com/moonshines.fantasy/art).  Here’s the rough draft for a piece I’m hoping to have finished for DragonCon called “Underwater“.  Let me know what you think, and if you’re at DragonCon, stop by the Art Show and say hi!Rough sketch of children's illustration "Underwater"

Sea Kitties and Slumber Parties

June 16, 2010

My daughter’s birthday is in May and for a few years now, I try to make a drawing for her birthday cake and help her make her own invitations.  This year’s theme was “Sea Kittens”, inspired by the PETA campaign and online web game (http://www.peta.org/sea_kittens/).  My kid LOVES them, and has been busy drawing a bunch of fish in cute costumes, wigs and  even guitars.  She came up with her own for the invitation, so I “borrowed” her design for the cake.  She also needed a separate invite for a sleepover, so I quickly came up with this one inspired by her first sleep-over, when they didn’t get to sleep until after 5 AM.
