Illustration Friday: Citrus - 100th IF Post!


     Wow! Today I celebrate my 100th post on Illustration Friday! Don't believe me? Check out the IF Gallery I've put together.
     Ironically, with today's subject, I'm posting what I consider to be one of my first truly successful illustrations. I did this . . . about nine years ago, and it was probably the first piece I ever did that made me think, "hm, I might be able to play with the big dogs!" It was quite an accomplishment for me.
     Help me celebrate my 100th IF post! Download and color my birthday bear:

Thanks for all the great comments y'all! If you color 'em - I'll post 'em! This one is by "kinT."
You guys are so awesome. This second birthday bear is colored by "Cat."
The bears keep coming! This one is by Mark Korbieh - a friend from Spanish class!

And another bear! This one colored by Scott Cuzzo. :)

This is gorgeous. Congratulations on #100. What's ironic is that from the first I've thought of you as one of the big dogs...maybe the alpha dog of the whole herd of dogs. I love your work and think this one is exquisite! It's really cool to hear you talking about reaching that point and knowing there was a time when you weren't there yet. Very inspiring!
