Seperated from the Herd.

Poor Rhari. She's legal but it's ALWAYS scary being separated from your friends... Will they let her in or will she upset the "balance" of the bar. D:

Tuesday, October 12, 2010

This'll be easy enough.. right?


The girls are ready to party, but first they must defeat the Guardians of the Bar door.... well... not defeat, but at least have two peices of photo ID xD

To the Bar!!

Another Taursday post. Sorry about being so inconsistent lately. I've been pretty busy here around the house. Here's a continuation on "Girl's night out"

"It's that time of year..."

"When the world falls in love"

With thanksgiving on the way and winter on it's way I'm getting more and more excited about the prospects of christmas MY way. No other influence telling me, "No, you can't play christmas music" "No, I don't want a tree" "No, you can't do santa clause" :D I'm my own person this season and I'm getting myself TOTALLY hyped up about it. :3

I can't wait for snow, and glad tidings, jingle bells and horses drawing sledges. I'm SO excited! Even though Halloween comes first, I want to skip it this year and jump right into december! :D

Here's some cute art while I bounce from excitedness.




I can't wait to go up to the ski house and relax by the fireside with a good book. And if anyone wants to get me a birthday present this year, send me your favorite book :D E-mail me and I'll give you my mailing address. <3 Season's Greetings xD

Something to Post!

Finally, I have something to post about! I recently finished working on some artwork for my friend Kamatz! :D He commissioned something of her?self and a friend and I didn't quite know the exact nature of the relationship so I went with something cute and fun! :D I hope you guys like, I know I really enjoyed putting this together!



Aside from my wintery stuff (I'm getting super stoked about Christmas, but more on that later) I've also done a couple gift badges for two "taur-iffic" friends. They were really there for me when my boyfriend and I broke up. Soooo here's the artwork.


And


These were a lot of fun to do. I didn't realize I missed making badges. lol We also missed 24-hour Comic day but I think I have a plan for next year. It involves the ski-house, artists and their partners. It'll be fantastic!! :D

Mucho loves!

Ryal teh Panda here!!

So yea... Just as a filler because i haven't posted in what feels like forever, still no new art from me! (I'm lazy!! Imma panda!!) But anyways since there is nothing new from either me or Rhari ill post something i found on the interwebs just as a little entertainment! ----------------------->

Delays Delays

So I know I haven't been posting much and I owe you guys about 3 new taursday comics. For the most part it's been life keeping me busy. I've been going to church, walking everyday, getting fit, getting healthy, being with friends and doing a lot more in my life to keep busy.

I've also been working on my art stuffs and I have things to post as soon as I can get to a scanner :D I've finished Nikon's Badge, Ahiru's Badge, and Theo Winter's Badge. As well as one for me and stuff.

My busy busybodyness can be attributed to the upcoming rainfurrest. I'm keeping VERY very busy with preparing art for the art show, prepping the fursuits and just keeping busy. It's so terribly exciting. It'll be my first convention without little girl and so worth it. She'll get to stay home with another child and get to interact in a large family and I will get the opportunity for some single girl fun! :D I still won't be drinking but I will relax and enjoy myself!

For those of you at the con, I will be taking sketchbook commissions at $15 as pop so hunt me down! We will be staying at the Seattle Airport Hilton but will spend most of our time up at the marriott, don't worry! :D

Can't wait to see you all!
Rhari

PS Will post art tonight.

Girl's Night Out



In which the girls decide to take Rhari to their favorite bar. Dun dun DUN!!

TMI Taursday


Won't lie. I watch sappy movies while suffering my "monthly gift" just so I can get a good cry out of it. The unfortunate thing is sometimes people just happen to be over.
One of these such times was with friends and I just LOST it in the previews. It was about a Dog, and his master... and he never came home.
I spent the next three previews bawling.

Substituted Ryal and Chewtoy for the people who were actually there cause I couldn't remember who it was with >>;

Happy Taursday everyone!

Adventure Day

Oh my goodness was today ever a busy day.

We were up this morning at 5am to get to a Doctor's appointment (in the city) that I thought was at 10am. OOPS. It was at 1! Luckily I had a friend with me to keep me busy. Even if he was texting half the time xD I can forgive him. We had a good time, impromptu meetings with various consultants and such. It was good.

Came home and am now just vegging out and chillin with my girl. Seriously considering getting rid of my cable, but then I'll be back in the dark, never knowing about cool new shows or anything. Would you guys keep me informed? lol who knows!

Regardless, here's some art to tide you over till tonight's upload on FA/Ink Bunny


Enjoy guys!

Toiling away

So, this weekend's been busy for me. Not only did Ryal (panda_Blair) and I hang out yesterday, we managed to get so much stuff done. We went to church, said good-bye (for now) to friends there, pull out into the street and get pulled over by my mom. She pulls up behind me and starts frantically honking her horn at me. So We pull over and she reminds me that I have work to do for her. So after a quick lunch Ryal and I got to work!


Just a couple of monkeys for my mom's kindergarten class. They has watermarks because they're actual paid/professional work. Something I can put into my illustration portfolio, saying I did this for Sardis Elementary School's Kindergarten class! :D Super stoked.

After getting this done, Ryal headed out for a quick coffee with Church friends. That was good. And then they had to head to a wedding (D'awwww! Weddings!) and we went to go catch up with Tori kitty. Got to visit her family and see like a LOAD of their old family photos. :D They were awesome to see. I love old photos! Eventually they had to head out but Tori wanted more catch up time so we went to Tim Horton's for a quick coffee.

We weren't there for long before we snuck off to my Mom's Block Party. That was a lot of fun. Got to meet all my mom's neighbors and show off my monster. Everyone was really nice there and it was a free dinner. :D I like cooking, don't get me wrong, but if I can get out of it, I will! So Ryal and I really enjoyed that.

I think we got back around 7 ish and here's a secret, if you post Chocolate chip Banana muffins in the comments section, I'll know you actually read this TL;DR post! So we got back around seven ish and The Monster curled up on the couch like she normally does when she's "napping". Usually though, she doesn't actually fall asleep. This time she did and considering the HELL she's been putting Ryal and I through this week for bedtimes, we were entirely tooooo grateful. We spent the rest of the night working on a little project. I think we listened to the same song for about 3 hours. But it's all relevant to the image. It was a wonderful composition, not entirely what I had envisioned at first but definitely the idea I had conceptualized.


"We are Stardust, We are Golden, and We've got to get Ourselves,
back to the Garden"

I'll be posting this to furaffinity/INkbunny as well. Let me know if you're interested in Prints of it or some such. I love how it's come out, especially with the Aurora Borealis in the background :3 That was just a great touch. We are stardust, we are golden, and we've got to get ourselves back to the garden.

Have a great day, and good luck with those of you returning to school this week!

We named me!

Hey guys its Panda-Blair!

I haven't posted here in the past week, so i decided it was about time to post something!
Well, there is no new arts from me but we did decide on a name for my panda-me!
There is nothing wrong with Panda-Blair, but i want a real name for me! so after a days work of trying to shift the letters of my real name into a panda name, we just flipped my first name and dropped the B... Here is a quick look into something I wrote in my sketchbook...

Blair
Rialb
Rylib
Ryelub
Ryelub
Ryal
so yea.. my new panda name is Ryal, just thought you should all know

Thursday, September 2, 2010

FINISHED!



I couldn't share this in the small format, so for the next little while you guys get the full on High res file :D I absolutely LOVE the color in the dresses. <3

Some cameos!
Panda-Blair up there in the corner
Little Kitty - Tori's son
Puppy - Adrienna's Son
The Monster, in pink
Samson, the gentleman in Brown
And finally, the Crush, behind the booth. Wish is was a kissing booth. I'd steal one or two and pay for more! Hahaha... oh gosh I hope he didn't hear me!

A preview

I've been working on something for the last two days (and probably will most of tonight) It's coming together REALLY awesome and I wanted to share a bit while I'm working on it. This isn't even a 1/4 of the whole piece. I think you'll be impressed when I post it. I'm super pleased with it so far.


Happening too Frequently


My little monster seems to be getting into EVERYTHING lately. These are NOT the only things she's broken, just the more important things. The list includes make-up, deodorant, candles, bowls, plates, garbage bins, fish tanks... things like that. Oh Monster, what am I going to do with you.

Quick Update from the Panda!

Ok, so I was just at Rhari's house and as you all know she is an awesome artist!
anyways she drew a few awesome drawings for me/ her/ her crush and i was sent to scan them... so since I currently have control of said drawings I am going to post them here(mwahahahaha!)!! anyways, its midnight im going to bed so here they are:
So these things look like your picking 'em up when you hold them right!

Theres me, Looking all happy!

And Rhari (shes upside down, Sorry!)

A few speech bubbles to go with mine(excluding "Zzz...")

And Rhari's Crush (also upside down) who is sleeping! (the"Zzz..." goes with him)


Thats what Rhari and I were up to today...

Sunday, August 29, 2010

Oh Hi!

Hey guys! I’m Panda Blair

As you probably guessed, I’m a Panda Bear (get it? Panda Blair is like Panda Bear... oh never mind)

Just saying hi to everybody here, I will be posting, alongside Rhari, Not as regularly as Rhari but still, I will be here. I'm thinking that I will be doing some kind of weekend comic thing... but I’m not sure... I would need a name for it though, so that I will need help with (leave comments with some comic names below!)

Anyways, yes, I will be here so you may see me around a bit. I will not be posting everyday like Rhari but I am still here posting whenever I feel like it.



Just so you have a visual reference, this is me, being all cute and stuff :)

Traditional Work

I'm going to be uploading a lot of my traditional stuff coming up soon :D I'm getting my sketchbooks scanned from a friend of mine and while they won't be COMPLETELY uploaded to the internet I will be putting together a CD/DvD of the media for purchase likely at the next couple cons :D There are some great things in there, like comic previews and Portfolio sketches, just all around awesome thnings.

On a Blog worthy note, I've added my little brother Panda-Blair as a contributor so he can upload his art to the internets. :D He's super awesome and a great guy!


One of the color works I've done in my 2010(2) Sketchbook. :D I love the way the marker and crayon worked together. Just freaking awesome.




Moxie doesn't know if she can trust Gadrie. Her heart is so fragile right now. His smile makes her melt, but it is also a point of pain because she knows he will never return the same feelings for her. My sketchbooks are the window to my soul.
I was reallllly feeling it one day and was reminded that I was not the person he wants to be with. You can see why Moxie is wary. Gadrie cares much more for Caoimhe than he will ever admit or express in that same way for Moxie.

Okay... enough introspection... this is getting almost too deep. Sorry guys.
Rhari

After all the things you put me through,
tell me why I'm still in love with you.

Hopefully not two of everything...



Diet pop is my worst enemy when it comes to making foxtaurs gassy. You've been warned!

Wednesday, August 25, 2010

Free Arts!

Hey guys!

So I wanted to do some work and I need your help :D This is just something I'm offering on my blog (and by promotion, Twitter).

What I need from you:
A photo of yourself
A reference of your fursona.

What I will be doing?
A three part comparison, where I will draw you as a people, in my style, and then draw your fursona alongside it and then post Photo, Portrait, Fursona and it'll be awesome.

I need to work more on my figure/face drawing. :3 I'm getting better but having actual subjects to work with would be helpful. I know I still have commissions but I wanna get some of this practice. I'm a silly Fox.

OH I will not be taking ALL of the requests offered here. Please leave me a way to get in contact with you if I choose you. Twitter, FA, E-mail. :3

Thanks guys, hope you're well!
Rhari

Back!

Finally back from my hiatus from the internet. I will admit that it didn't feel as long as it probably was. Is that silly. :3 I enjoyed my face time and working on some real media stuff in my sketchbooks. (Going to take those for another scanning soon!)

My computer problem is still standing. Still using the loaner computer from Trapa and Loial. Worth it yes, but it sucks not having my own computer, my own digital space as it were. I think I might pick up a External HDD on my next commission drive. I still have lots to finish. The list is never ending ><;; Seriously. Aside from that, in new positions with new people, trying new things and making the best of "bad times" and keeping up with my "Good times" Yesterday I went to Kareoke for the first time and OMG it was SO MUCH FUN. My friend Fawn and I closed out the night singing "I will survive". I also pulled off a credible, "American Pie" and "Honey Honey" >>;; I don't love music from the 70s... not at all. We'll see what I pull off next week. Yeah, I'm going back! WHOO!

And today, I went bowling. It was a blast. :3 I won the second game. We shoulda played a third game but I was pretty beat. I won the second game! yay me! But I have a feeling the boys were throwing it for me (yay!)

And now I'm just chilling at home, catching up on the internets I've missed these past two weeks. Any news I should be caught up on? :D

Oh, and here's what you came for! Arts!



Tuesday, August 17, 2010

OMG No internets!

Sorry about all this guys. I wasn't expecting to be without the internet for so long but hopefully it'll be back on friday. I'm looking into other options for my internet provider, but we'll have to see how that goes. :D

Right now I'm with Shaw Telecommunications I pay $131/month for phone, internet and cable.
If I went with Roger's I'd be on a 3 year contract for at least $100/month, for mobile internet + a mini-notebook. Seeing as how I NEED a new computer anyways, and having a laptop would be nice, I have considered it as an option. But in that case, I would cancel my internet/phone with shaw and go with a mobile phone and mobile internet w/Roger's and keep my Shaw cable.

I don't know what do you think internets?

Rhari

ps. Taursday will be back to it's regular schedule starting the thursday after I get my internets back. :D will even have a full page comic or two for you! :D

Thursday, August 5, 2010

Taursdays!

Going to be posting my new comic: Taursdays here on Thursdays! And for our first comic:
"Toilet Humor"

Toilet humor... I'm horrible!

Wednesday, August 4, 2010

Wheeee!

Got lots of done in the last day. Finished the comic for tomorrow, finished a commission for Cloakable, and I think I finished something else but I can't remember... Let's see what I has to upload hm....



This was a blast. She just came out so awesome!

And because she's a close friend of my good friend Foxbrush, and we were all chatting on skype I doodled up something else. Mwahahaha, I'm awesome.


This was just too cute. I liked the negative space :3

And that's about it for today! But I'll have a comic update for everyone tomorrow!! :D

Tuesday, August 3, 2010

Got stuff done today.

So today I got more work done on "Taursdays" which I'll be uploading this thursday! Whee! And I finished up a couple commissions, and some personal stuff. I've been busy.

So first off, the finished pieces for Enso turned out SUPER COOL.


I really enjoy doing doorhangers, they're fun!

And the badge I did for him as well!

These might get posted to FA evenutally, we'll see but for now they will live here. Yay me!

Still working on Rainfurrest stuff and Sekret projects!


I don't want to forget this.

I Don't Believe in Love - Josiah Leming


Just because you're with me
Doesn't mean I'm not alone.
And just because I love you,
Doesn't mean I will tomorrow.
Cause even when you kiss me
My heart never lets me let go.
Oh it never lets me let go

And if tomorrows on your mind,
Well baby, push it out, its not on mine.

I don't believe in love now baby,
I don't believe in anything at all,
Except the love that we are making,
The only thing Ive ever known
I don't believe in it, but if I did,
Baby you'd be the one.
Baby you'd be the one.

Just because I will not lie,
Doesn't take away my strong desire
Show me all the places,
All your other men could never find.
And if you start to see these things
In the realm of possibility.
And baby let me take my time tonight, tonight.

And if tomorrow never breaks,
Well baby don't you cry,
Its more than I can take.

I don't believe in love now baby,
I don't believe in anything at all,
Except the love that we are making,
The only thing Ive ever known
I don't believe in it, but if I did,
Baby you'd be the one.
Baby you'd be the one.



I'm such a sap

Delays!

I wish I could show you some of the things I have been working on but a lot of these are alas, secret projects! :3 Some stuff for my home-con of Rainfurrest and some stuff for our upcoming Chair election! Super stoked about that, I hope our project goes off without a hitch!

Mmmm more stuff... Drew some stuff while watching Firefly and chillin with my Crush :D Sooooo you'll get to see that right... here
D'aww playing ball. I will catch him and tackle him and rawr... *blush* Enough of that...

Mmmm more stuff? I dunno. Spent the last couple days working out stuff I'm about to start posting here... Webcomic stuff. If enough interest is shown I'll maybe even more if over to it's own site (cause I'm awesome like that)

I'm still working REALLY hard on getting us to Rainfurrest this year. I don't have a dealer's den table so I would only be going to satisfy my con needs for a year and I think I will suffer some SERIOUS depression if I don't make it but I will do my damndest to get there. Do my damndest to make some sales and just PUSH PUSH PUSH for this con. I want to go, I NEED to go. I love you RF! I might even make my car make the trip one last time.. who knows.


Enso's Doorhanger

So I got the payment for Enso's commissions and am pushing through with those. I didn't realize how close the deadline was! YIPES! I gotta get this one done for him! Wish me luck guys!

Now back to work!

The Drive in!


You'll never guess where we went last night! Haha okay, I guess since it's in the title and all. :3 Last night I took my crush to the drive-in. He'd never been and it's a summer tradition for me to go so one thing led to another and we went. It was a triple feature (whoo!) and so so worth it!

They showed "Despicable Me" which was just cutesy adorable! I loved it, and the squishy little yellow guys just were like the icing on the cake. Anyone familiar with, and especially those who liked Raving Rabbids will definately draw a parallel between them. Just something about them made me want to squish em and hug em. (If anyone finds me a plushie of them, there will be much artings! E-mail me!)

After that came "Inception" which made me really REALLY think. Even though I was like falling asleep during the last half, it was still a good movie, I would like to see it again and catch the parts I missed. (oops!) It was good, thought provoking and made you go, "huh?" a bunch of times. It's one of those movies where everything is important. SYMBOLISM IS EVRYTHING.

And after that was Iron Man 2 (which I have to admit, I wasn't all that interested in...) I actually fell asleep about 2/3 of the way in and missed out on a lot. It was pretty good though and I think my Crush was more excited about that one than any of the others. I feel kinda bad for falling asleep during it (but it was 2am! What do you expect of a single mom!)

Otherwise it was a good day, and cute art came out of it! :D I'm a happy fox.

Stuff Im werkin on

I got a whole crapload done last night and today on arts for the world and I figured I'd share some of these sketches with you. :D I assure you they are full of the awesome and not of the sap of my earlier post. Heh. I'm so silly sometimes.


Door hanger for Enso
I'm also doing a badge for him later. He's preforming at Condition: Zero Hour A furry con up here in Ontario.
And then I was workin on drawin peoples. >>;; Watching True Blood. It's like one of my favorite shows. I like Bill's picture there. I dunno why, I just dooooo. :3

I coulda swore I had more to upload today, but I'm saving the comics for Taursdays. Going to be awesome stuffs.

Thursday, July 29, 2010

Shy for Sharing.

I just finished this up and felt like sharing. :3 I know he'll never feel the same way I do about him, but I gotta share and get these feelings out. This is from my sketchbook, which I scanned today at Mum's. It's awesomes! (at least in my opinion!)


I'm such a huge sap.

Another Day, Another Doodle

Spent most of yesterday cooped up at home. Not that I'm complaining, it was 30C outside and that's just toooooo hot for this Dox. :3 Got some tidying up done around the house, ran the dishwasher, overall did a good mommy day. :D



And people showed up! That was awesome. I've been feeling kind of neglected by my local friends and I don't know why. I mean they've been around but I feel like out conversations have only been surface talk, haven't really been getting into the stuff that "matters" you know? Maybe it's just me, who knows?



On the subject of art, Trapa, Loial and Rex are still diligently working on trying to get my hard drive running :/ When my computer died apparently it was because of that hard drive, which unfortunately hasn't been backed up since like August of 2009 (or 2008, I can't remember D: ) And it has ALL of my work on it. Everything I've done for the past 5 years, all my daughter's baby photos, everything. If it comes down to it I might just shell out the $300 to get it all profesionally recovered. :3 Yays.



Anyways, hope today finds you well! Enjoy the art!

New Sketches

So because I haven't been keeping strictly to furry art and have been wanting to branch out, I've decided to start art blogging. I'm just tired of being restricted to Deviantart or Furaffinity for my art and wanted something new. (Besides, last time I used Deviantart, I got a virus! Bad Deviantart!)

I'll be posting more art as it comes up but for now, you get a couple spunky sketches!
