Quilt Inspiration

Luscious-Lipped Girl

 Pamela says:

I meant for her to be a cartoon but couldn't stop myself from shading her.

Giraffe Pockets

Pamela says:

The giraffe dress was one I had in Kindergarten, loved it so much I was still wearing it long after it was too short. The jumper was ocher corduroy, the giraffes red felt, and the buttons and eyes were bullet-shaped brass shank buttons.

I would love to see someone make their little girl a dress or a jumper with giraffe pockets.  Anyone?  Anyone?

Tiger Head

Unfinished Elf Girl

Can't wait to see this one finished and colored with Pamela's favorite colored pencils.

Horned Critter

Mermaid

Critter

About this and other make-believe critters that Pamela invents, she says:

This is a little game I play with pencil or pen and paper. I conjure up an imaginary creature, not a monster but a believable-looking creature, and as I'm creating it I consider it's habits and habitat. Is it nocturnal, then give it big eyes... or... I think I'll make this one nocturnal, so it gets big eyes. Aquatic, semi-aquatic, arboreal or terrestrial? Does it dig, tunnel or leap in great bounds? Carnivore, herbivore, omnivore? If it's a carnivore, how does it hunt? Does it need camouflage? Why or why not?

Menagerie

Pamela drew this on the back of a church program dated March 11, 2007.  The speakers that day were Leah Copeland, Elder Beckstrom, and Wade Miller.  Pamela promises that she listens better when she doodles ;o)  It's amazing how each animal emanates a unique personality.
