My New Logo

I'm so stoked about my new logo! It represents me and my mascot, Charlie the sloth. I commissioned it from SugarOverkill. Michéle Liza Pelayre is the talent behind the company. Her influences are Japanese pop culture, kawaii, goth, punk, and Harajuku. Michéle is currently taking commissions for illustrations and tattoo designs. If you're interested, you can send Michéle an e-mail.  You can also connect with Michéle on deviantART and Facebook. 

I also commissioned my good friend, Jeanette Wummel, the owner of The Roots of Design to make another chibi of me and Charlie.  I know, I'm a little vain aren't I?  I just love seeing my characters (yes, I'm a character) drawn by different artists.  I think Jeanette made me and Charlie look so stinkin' cute!  Jeanette is also currently taking commissions for chibis.  If you're interested, just send her an e-mail.

I want to thank both Michéle and Jeanette for creating such awesome pieces of art for me!  You all have made the past two days really special. 

Charlie: The Huggable Sloth

This past Friday, I introduced my readers to Charlie: The Huggable Sloth in the post, "I Heart Sloths." Well, I didn't have a name for Charlie then, as I only named him last night. I suppose the name is derived from a LOST character, but I'm not exactly sure why I picked the heroin addicted, bass player from Driveshaft as the eponym for my adorable sloth.

Nothing will probably come of it, but last evening I submitted Charlie's picture to Patch Together as a candidate to be a candidate for PT to make him into a plush toy. I'm supposed to hear back from PT within 3 days.

I'm super excited about my new deviantART avatar, which I commissioned from supperfrogg. I'm a big fan of animated pixel art already, so having Charlie represented in that form thrills me to death! Here is my little pixelated Charlie.
