Hello Artist friends and neighbors!

Well, the Holidays are over (whew and yeah!) and it is back to business! I would like to wish everyone a Happy and prosperous New Year and I look forward to sharing all the fun things that will be happening in Studio 8.

I’ll start off with the year’s first radio installment. I have to say that I think this was the best one yet…a lot of fun! So be sure to set aside some time and check it out.

WHBU - Cagney King - January Show

A really major project that has been on my plate is illustrating a children's story. WHEW! What a job! Between the planning, the learning curve and the character development, I worked on that project for nearly a year! Now that I have that done I can really not find any excuse not to really be working in studio! If I can get permission, I will see if I can share some of the illustrations and the story with you! I had never gotten to try my had at illustration, and certainly have a very healthy appreciation of the illustrators that I studied and admired in preparation for this journey. Now that the project is over, I can say that I really learned A LOT, and might just try my hand at illustrating some of my poems in the future.

Things have been rock’n in Studio 8 and progress on Poetry Pants continues! I now have the first few layers of paint on the background and once the last layer dries completely will continue to build it up! Keep your e-mails and comments coming! I really love keeping in touch with everyone! Until next time…Rock on!
