Wanderlust has hit me hard and I want to go everywhere. I was terrible about this last year and would like to focus more time on reflecting and drawing during and after travel.<br />
<br />
Here are a few illustrations I created for my <a href="http://marisamidori.tumblr.com/post/74168974949/a-few-photos-and-an-illustration-from-when-i-was" target="_blank">Vancouver</a> and <a href="http://marisamidori.tumblr.com/post/73204226371/for-2014-id-like-to-start-sharing-more-short" target="_blank">Seattle</a> recaps I posted on my <a href="http://marisamidori.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">tumblr</a> after my trip home for Christmas.<br />

Hello everyone! It's been awhile since there's been an update around here. The main reason is that I created a <a href="http://marisamidori.tumblr.com/">tumblr</a> a few months back and got a little bit sucked into that. I'm still trying to figure out how to balance that with this blog or whether I should just pick one over the other. I think there are definite advantages to both. We'll see how this plays out.<br />
<br />
Just wanted to mostly say hi and also post this little grapefruit doodle.

It's October! Which means.....time to start thinking about Christmas gifts right? Well, it is if you would like to give someone a custom illustration this year! I had a lot of fun creating custom building illustrations for folks last year so I decided to bring this project back again this year.
I love <a href="http://marisaseguin.com/vancouver.html">drawing buildings</a> and would love to illustrate one that is meaningful to you or someone you know. Whether it be a home, a summer cottage, winter cabin, historical landmark, travel destination, garden shed, or whatever other structure your heart desires. Submit a photo and you will have an 8x8 or 8x10 illustration on your doorstep by Christmas!
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><u>HOW IT WORKS</u></span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><u><br /></u></span></b></div>
There is a <i><u>limited number</u></i> of spaces available (50) for this so <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/164154502/home-for-the-holidays-custom">head on over to my shop</a> to secure your spot. Once you have purchased your spot, you can email a photo of your desired building to me at seguin.marisa@gmail.com.<br />
<br />
<i><b>How much does it cost?</b></i><br />
$50 + shipping.<br />
<br />
<i><b>What do I get?</b></i><br />
You will receive an 8"x8" or 8"x10" print that has been reproduced digitally on archival quality watercolour paper. If you want to see some examples you can see some of the homes I've illustrated for the project already right <a href="http://marisaseguin.blogspot.com/2012/11/home-for-holidays-update.html">here</a>.<br />
<br />
<i><b>What buildings will you draw?</b></i><br />
House, condo, cabin, cottage, castle, Versailles.....as long as it has some semblance of a dwelling (i.e. I will not draw the Great Wall of China, Eiffel Tower, etc) then I would like to illustrate it for you!<br />
<br />
<i><b>When will I get my print?</b></i><br />
I will be sending them out as I finish in the order that they are received. The last shipment will be made no later than December 13. If you need your print sooner than this please include a note in your email. I will do whatever possible to accommodate requests for prints to be mailed by a certain date but <u><b>make no guarantees that they will be mailed earlier than Friday December 13</b>.</u><br />
<br />
<i><b>Do you ship internationally?</b></i><br />
Yes! You can find a list of shipping prices <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/164154502/home-for-the-holidays-custom">right here</a> in the shop when you order.<br />
<br />
<i><b>Can I see my illustration before you ship it?</b></i><br />
Unfortunately not. The elimination of the usual back and forth makes it possible for me to offer these at a flat rate.<br />
<br />
<i><b>Can I request certain colours?</b></i><br />
Unfortunately not. Again, for the same reason as above, the elimination of the usual back and forth allows me to offer these illustrations at a flat rate.<br />
<br />
<i><b>Can you ship it to someone else for me?</b></i><br />
Yes I can! I'll even include a note if you'd like. <br />
<br />
<i><b>Do you offer refunds?</b></i><br />
Once you have sent me your photo your sale will be considered final.<br />
<br />
Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions!<br />

I was psyched when Light Grey Art Lab announced the call for artists for their Station Zero show. They had been working on amassing a collection of old sci-fi books from the 50s through the 70s and were looking for artists to reinterpret the covers.<br />
<br />
I definitely wouldn't call myself a sci-fi buff. More a sci-fi admirer. When I opened up the package containing my book from Light Grey, I was excited to find the beauty pictured on the top left. Such a great cover already!<br />
<br />

When I thought about what I like in great cover design, more often than not it is pretty clear, graphic and slightly quirky design. I liked the fun line of shapes under Leiber's name on the original cover and thought that creating vignettes on my cover using similar shapes could be a fun homage to the original design.<br />
<br />
This cover turned into one of those cases where I work on it and keep adding things only to undo everything because it starts looking too cluttered. The book is actually comprised of four short stories. I thought four of the shaped vignettes would be an interesting concept to work with, one alluding to each of the stories. In the end, I simplified it down to two. One with the radar to hint at the government/technological aspects involved in the stories and one to hint at the barren landscape that permeates the book.<br />

<a href="http://lightgreyartlab.com/" target="_blank">Light Grey Art Lab</a> in Minneapolis have another great show opening this Friday that has been curated by Amy Ng of <a href="http://www.pikaland.com/" target="_blank">Pikaland</a>! SMART featured a call for art that is clever, subtle, and thoughtful. Only a slightly daunting task....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I decided to apply figuring it would be a good challenge if I was accepted into the show (and also because Amy is awesome). I then proceeded to agonize over what I'd illustrate for weeks after being accepted into the show. Everything I thought of just seemed so contrived because I was thinking about it so hard. After flipping through some old sketchbooks I was finally inspired by a doodle I had done years ago. </div>

The fine folks at <a href="http://lightgreyartlab.com/" target="_blank">Light Grey Art Lab </a>asked me a few questions about art, cake, and parties for their current show, Hot Party! You can read it <a href="http://blog.lightgreyartlab.com/2013/03/artist-interview-marisa-seguin.html" target="_blank">right here</a> and see the rest of the art from the exhibition in their <a href="http://lightgreyartlab.com/hot-party1/" target="_blank">online gallery</a>. They're also selling some prints of my cakes through their <a href="http://lightgreyartlabshop.bigcartel.com/category/hot-party?page=2" target="_blank">online shop</a> if you're interested!</div>

Her etsy shop, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/ElwoodAndEloise" target="_blank">Elwood & Eloise</a>, is a frequent internet stop of mine and I always find something good. One of my more recent purchases was this book. Written by Harold Coy and illustrated by Helen Borten, it was published in 1956. I love the simple colour palette of the illustrations as well as reading through and finding all of the anachronistic sentences....because I'm a nerd <i>("The Senate, or upper house, consists of 96 Senators, two from each state.")</i> It's kind of the same joy I get from listening to people speculating in old podcasts and thinking, "You have no idea! That's a real thing now!"<br />

This book was an amazing find that I picked up at Bay View Books & Music <a href="http://instagram.com/p/VhqCees4Bt/" target="_blank">a couple of weeks ago</a>. Published in 1951, it was written and illustrated by Jan Balet. It walks through all of the instruments in an orchestra with fantastic sonic descriptions of the different tones elicited from each. I love the mix of line vs. shape in these illustrations as well as the patternwork in the various musicians suits. The expressions in each of the characters' body language and faces is also great (with the tambourine player being my personal favourite. He means business). Also has great endpapers to boot.<br />

For my own sketch, I had a really tough time narrowing down what musical (or even aspect of musicals) I wanted to pay tribute to. I decide to go with <a href="http://movies.netflix.com/WiMovie/Dr._Horrible_s_Sing-Along_Blog/70115760?locale=en-US" target="_blank">Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog</a> (brilliant suggestion from <a href="http://www.behance.net/lillianjoan" target="_blank">Lilly</a>). Every time I watch it I notice something new. <i>(An American in Paris was my runner-up choice).</i><br />

I was happy to contribute some little cake illustrations to their show Hot Party (because what's a party without cake?). I first became involved with Light Grey last year for their gigantic <a href="http://marisaseguin.blogspot.com/2012/04/pokemon-battle-royale.html" target="_blank">Pokémon: Battle Royale</a> exhibition and am so glad to be a part of the incredible community of artists that they have brought together. Lindsay, Chris, Francesca, and Jenny are such talented, creative, all-around cool people and I can't wait to see what they have planned for the coming year. Happy birthday, Light Grey Art Lab! Prints of my cakes are available in the Light Grey Art Lab shop right <a href="http://lightgreyartlabshop.bigcartel.com/category/hot-party" target="_blank">here</a>! If you live in the Twin Cities area be sure to stop by this Friday for the <a href="http://blog.lightgreyartlab.com/2013/02/hot-party-opening-reception.html" target="_blank">opening reception</a> and plenty of birthday festivities<br />

I had so much fun creating these so it makes me so happy that all of you are enjoying sharing them just as much. It's been crazy seeing them <a href="https://twitter.com/marisamidori/status/299953183491518465/photo/1" target="_blank">criss-crossing the internet</a> and popping up in various places I just happen to be browsing. My twitter has also been blowin' out with all of the great feedback. You helped make them so popular that <a href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/travisrandg/8-arrested-development-valentines-day-cards-5d61" target="_blank">Buzzfeed</a> picked them up and they even made it to the front page! <i>(Which, admittedly, I didn't fully comprehend what an </i>enormous deal<i> this was until all of my friends started sending it to me on facebook).</i> Check out my thumbnail chillin' at the top between Star Wars and Melissa McCarthy!<br />
<br />
I had been planning to create a few extras (a booster pack if you will) because a) it just seemed sad that Michael didn't get one, and b) there were too many other characters that I wanted to illustrate. Please accept a few more Valentines as my humble thank you!<br />

Yes please. So I thought it would be fun to make a set of downloadable Valentines for you to give to your sweet baboo or your cousin or whathaveyou. I <i>may</i> have a few more for you next week depending on how much time I have this weekend....<br />
<br />
Just save and print on 8.5x11 paper. Cut into quarters and you're good to go!<br />

Every month, I post a <a href="http://marisamidori.blogspot.com/2013/02/january-mix.html">mix of some of the songs</a> I've been listening to lately. A lot of them I have on while I'm working. What do you like to listen to while you work? Lately, I've been obsessed with <a href="http://www.nerdist.com/podcast/nerdist/">The Nerdist podcast</a>.<br />

I want to say a big big thank you for supporting me and my art this past year. I accomplished a lot of new things this year from being in my first gallery shows to creating illustrations for a motion graphic (post to come!). I can't wait to see what 2013 has in store! Hope your holidays are crack-a-lackin' and I'll see you in the new year!<br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">(This is the illustration for my Christmas card that I sent out this year. I've still got a few leftover so if you'd like a belated holiday card mailed to you just email me your mailing address!)</span></i><br />

Unfortunately, this cover got killed. Ah well, that's how it goes sometimes. That's why it's important to love what you do! The 2013 guide is in the issue that's on newstands right now if you'd like to know the charitable happenin's around town next year.<br />

I'm that good.<br />
<br />
I was so excited when <a href="http://lightgreyartlab.com/">Light Grey Art Lab</a> announced the call for art for their <a href="http://lightgreyartlab.com/girls-fact-fiction/">Girls: Fact + Fiction</a> show a couple of months ago. This show features work from over 100 artists paying tribute to some of their favourite factual and fictional ladies. I had a hard time narrowing down my choices (Iris Apfel, Julia Child, and Matilda were all very close) but Pippi Longstocking is near and dear to my heart and I'm glad that the team at LGAL asked me to <a href="http://lightgreyartlabshop.bigcartel.com/product/pippi-longstocking-by-marisa-sequin-fiction">illustrate her</a> for the show.<br />
<br />
You can see the rest of the art from this show right <a href="http://lightgreyartlab.com/girls-fact-fiction/">here</a> or if you live in the Twin Cities area, stop by and check out the show! It opens tomorrow night (Dec 7). Holiday madness at home is preventing me from driving out and I'm bummed I won't get to see this amazing show in person. It's going to be great!<br />

The first round was sent off to my printer earlier this week and I asked a few of the owners if I could share some of them here. My favourite part is hearing the stories that people have shared with me along with their photos. Cabins where family vacations have been spent, first-time home owners, and other exciting memories tied to these buildings.<br />

I've had this project cooking in my brain for a little bit and thought now would be the perfect opportunity to give it a try. I love <a href="http://marisaseguin.com/vancouver.html">drawing buildings</a> and would love to illustrate one that is meaningful to you or someone you know! Whether it be a home, a summer cottage, winter cabin, historical landmark, travel destination, garden shed, or whatever other structure your heart desires. Submit a photo and you will have an 8x10 illustration on your doorstep by Christmas!</div>

<b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><u><br /></u></span></b></div>
There is a <i><u>limited number</u></i> of spaces available (50) for this so <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/114980418/home-for-the-holidays-custom">head on over to my shop</a> to secure your spot. Once you have purchased your spot, you can email a photo of your desired building to me at seguin.marisa@gmail.com.<br />
<br />
<i><b>How much does it cost?</b></i><br />
$40 + shipping.<br />
<br />
<i><b>What do I get?</b></i><br />
You will receive an 8"x10" print that has been reproduced digitally on archival quality watercolour paper. If you want to see some examples you can see some of the homes I've illustrated for the project already right <a href="http://marisaseguin.blogspot.com/2012/11/home-for-holidays-update.html">here</a>.<br />
<br />
<i><b>What buildings will you draw?</b></i><br />
House, condo, cabin, cottage, castle, Versailles.....as long as it has some semblance of a dwelling (i.e. I will not draw the Great Wall of China, Eiffel Tower, etc) then I would like to illustrate it for you!<br />
<br />
<i><b>When will I get my print?</b></i><br />
I will be sending them out as I finish in the order that they are received. The last shipment will be made no later than December 14. If you need your print sooner than this please include a note in your email. I will do whatever possible to accommodate requests for prints to be mailed by a certain date but <u><b>make no guarantees that they will be mailed earlier than December 14</b>.</u><br />
<br />
<i><b>Do you ship internationally?</b></i><br />
Yes! You can find a list of shipping prices <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/114980418/home-for-the-holidays-custom">right here</a> in the shop when you order.<br />
<br />
<i><b>Can I see my illustration before you ship it?</b></i><br />
Unfortunately not. The elimination of the usual back and forth makes it possible for me to offer these at a flat rate.<br />
<br />
<i><b>Can I request certain colours?</b></i><br />
Unfortunately not. Again, for the same reason as above, the elimination of the usual back and forth allows me to offer these illustrations at a flat rate.<br />
<br />
<i><b>Can you ship it to someone else for me?</b></i><br />
Yes I can! I'll even include a note if you'd like. <br />
<br />
<i><b>Do you offer refunds?</b></i><br />
Once you have sent me your photo your sale will be considered final.<br />
<br />
Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions!<br />

I finished this ice cream dish doodle last night. Not sure what I'll use it for yet.<br />
