One of my favorite books and even movie is “Howl’s Moving Castle” by Diana Wynne Jones… about a star, magic, and relationships. I tried to illustrate a bit of that magical feel. Have you ever made a wish on a star? I have and will do it again.

I was so surprised to come up with this Inktober ink drawing, really love it. The little girl makes me smile, her pure joy is plastered on her face… makes me think of my big sister. Her feathery friends are one of the many things that she loves. What brings you pure joy?
I’m excited about the book I’ve been working on for https://www.facebook.com/nicoleseaveyauthor/ What do you think of the cover?

Almost there on this one. I’ve enjoyed working on this beautiful piece, escaping from the craziness of my weekend. What is your escape?
The preorder link has gone live for Kismet. April Canavan is amazingly talented. I really enjoyed designing the cover art for Kismet. The book captures the reader early and won’t let you go… such a good read. Share and get your copy early. See the link below.
“Becca”, portrait update 2 ©2016 alecia goodman to present
This drawing is so beautiful. I love the movement in her shirt and the wind blowing her hair around. Look at her hair, just gorgeous. I think she might just be done, hopefully I have been able to really capture her . Media pencil/lead with white charcoal

Want to go swimming? I had to draw this guy out a couple of times. Finally I was just doodling while waiting at the doctor’s office, it clicked. He’s wanting to make a love connection or maybe just make friends. ZIG Millennium 05, and Faber-Castell Pitt artist pen M #inktober2016 #drawlloween2016
“Charlie”, portrait ©2014 alecia goodman to present
Not too long ago I had a blonde haired blue eyed baby boy. We went to a play group at the local hospital here. We met some wonderful moms and dads… making many friends for life. One of these moms, Sarah, let me be part of a super secret Christmas present for her husband. It was a portrait of their fur baby Charlie, a beautiful lab and so sweet too. I finished the portrait and was ready to ship it to her as they had moved, miss them terribly. I was heart broken and sad to find out Charlie wasn’t doing very well at all. As requested I held on to the portrait for an additional week while the family said their good byes. Thank you for letting me create this portrait for you. Media gray paper and charcoal pencil
I submitted this to Illustration Friday for the category of “Strong”. I believe there are strong bonds of family between friends and fur babies.

I was wondering how many of us really look under the surface to what’s inside; Illustration Friday’s topic this week is “detective”… so I thought about it and thought the obvious things like Sherlock Holmes, magnifying glass etc., but then I thought about what a detective does and bingo I had it. This is something I have been dealing with quite a bit as an artist. People tend to judge books by their covers and this applies to people and even approaches to art or concepts. I know its not easy when someone walks into your life looking like they are poor, homeless, or maybe just common etc. In reality each of us reflect our inner gifts in different ways… Still I do think its funny, the stereotypes of an artist – some people don’t think I am an artist because well I am not weird enough, not covered with ink, have punk hair or anything else they believe I should have… but If you got to know me, by being a detective and looking under the surface, you would be surprised and realize most if not all of those things don’t matter. What matter’s is me, (my art) and yes, I am an artist.
