Angry Women and The Candy Collective Coup

Finished and mailed off to San Francisco today! My Angries are set to be auctioned off for charity at the 2009 Junior League of San Francisco Fashion Show. The theme for the event is "The Art of Fashion," and I am just thrilled that my ladies get to be a part of it. The Junior League is a charitable and educational organisation of women dedicated to strengthening the community through volunteer efforts, advocacy and grants.

In some exciting news, my interview in the latest issue of Candy Magazine has come out! Candy is an independently produced downloadable magazine that showcases Irish and international creativity. I am honoured to have been included in such a beautiful magazine— the talent is truly inspiring and the design makes me swoon. Check it out and download this fabulous collection of work here— oh, did I mention it's free?

"broken cookies taste the best."

Sometimes cold, rainy-snowy Sundays are best spent indoors, in pajamas, baking cookies with your little sister. We made a batch of deadly peanut butter chocolate chip and a healthier banana oatmeal. Cookies that were not presentable were naturally sacrificed, accompanied by cups of tea or milk.

With a full and content stomach, I continued working on my latest Coup and an Angry Woman, part of my Angry Women in Party Dresses series. I've been drawing my Angries for a couple of years now, and selling them out of a gallery in SF. This one is to be donated to The Junior League of San Francisco's charity auction at their 83rd Annual Fashion Show, which is on March 14.

The Angry Women started as fun workplace doodling and evolved into an actual series of ink drawings. They are highly fashionable women that are of course, angry. I have a great time drawing them, and sometimes envy them for their fabulous gowns and jewels.
