Jen Michel Illustration: December 2008
http://jenssillyanimals.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 12, 2008. I guess I should have posted this a long time ago. I wanted to remind you to keep your pets safe on Halloween. Acrylic. His Ass Ain't Hairy (this is ridiculous). Created following a random overheard conversation. Used likenesses of Roxy and Mikey. Vine charcoal and digital color. Wednesday, December 10, 2008. Gouache/Bad scan again. Of course. They're not great singers, but they each have their own song that differentiates them from one another. Tuesday, December 9, 2008.

Sunday, April 11, 2010. So a couple of friends and I had some work featured in a benefit show for an organization called A Rotta Love Plus. They rescue and rehome "dangerous" breeds of dogs like Pit bulls and Rottweilers. You can learn more about their cause here http:/ www.arottalove.org/. Happy VD Day. (Better late than never). I doodled this over a year ago to be carved into a rubber stamp by another student in my Collaborative Printmaking class. I just found him again. He's cute :D (Pen).
