PATTERN


What kind of crazy pattern have I gotten myself into now...

This was supposed to be for my IF submission for this weeks subject "Pattern" but I have not had time to work any color or pattern into it.

THINGY2!

Drum roll please, I am proud to introduce the latest edition to the Parr family!
Bethzaira just had her 3 month sonogram, the baby is good and healthy.
Here you can just make out a little hand...
And the bets are on that Oliver will have a little brother in the Spring of 2010. (This shot he's on his back with his legs apart and his royal jewels in full view!)

TV WALL

I had a long but productive day on Saturday, I put together the TV wall unit from Ikea. With Oliver safely enclosed by the dinning room table and out of harms way I gradually broke open each section and followed the instructions. I was amazed that I managed to stay clam throughout the entire process with only a few moments of mild frustration!

All that remained was to mount the TV into the unit...

Oliver's friends and other animals...

This is Zack Oliver's sous-chef and good buddy...
Oliver picked up supplies for his kitchen with the wheelie walker.
He played with the hula hoop...
"I am the ring master!"
Big smiles or is it a cover for "I didn't do it!"
Peeka BOO!
Oliver & Co.
Play date?
I'll go first you follow...
OK...

V-DUB

Worked up this groovy little number today for my new group, I remember going to Cheddar Gorge with my parents in one of these. It wasn't quite as tripped out, but I always remember that VW engine sound and the double doors on the side.

Snot NOSE DRUMMER BOY!


Oliver had an action packed day at school today. He blew a magnificent snot bubble for his teacher this morning after I had assured her that he did not have a cold like the rest of the kids at school. It was a marvelous green color something to be really proud of.

He played with colored tubes whilst practicing his best raspberries to the beat.
Then he took a seat on the mat and chilled the crowd with some wild beats, you had to be there man!

My WORK world...

Some of you may have been wondering what's happened to the blog. I do apologize I've been very busy at work. When the end of the day rolls around I try to get home as fast as I can and see Oliver & Bethzaira.

Here's a Ciaran's eye view of my desk...

My new flat screen which has opened up a huge amount of space on my desk!

And my mood boards and designs...

I will be updating you all very soon with new designs, Ollie photo's and nonsense, I promise!

Dream STAIRWAY





In my never ending eco-project I worked on some graffiti "slogan" designs.

Thankfully the words helped me keep on keeping on through the work day...

PIRANHA MOUTH!

I had some spare time at the end of the day whilst I waited for files to upload for Disney, so I worked on this illustration of Oliver.

I will work in some color and add more detail but I wanted to scan it before I made any more additions to the sketch.

Have a fun evening...Friday tomorrow, YES!!!

Cranky ISLAND

We took Oliver to Coney Island yesterday to celebrate Labor day.

It was fun strolling around the amusement park and people watching the Holiday crowd.

Oliver loved playing in the waters edge and the sand was new sensation, he did not however feel like wearing his sun hat...

Oliver's First Day at School!


Come on daddy we'll be late!


Hmm, I like what I see so far...


Oh! Someones not happy...


Finally a kitchen I CAN play in!


Yummy, may be a little more salt?!

Oliver had a good morning at school, not to many tears (from Oliver that is) only a bit of Parr shyness to begin with then he was too busy cookin' up a storm in the class kitchen! (Apologies for the blurry pictures the camera hasn't been behaving itself lately).

Check out these videos at the head chef at work...

video

He made friends and showed off his little excited head bop to the headmistress when she gave him his Cheerio's snack.

After a full morning of cooking, Oliver headed home for lunch and a good long nap!
