Our wonderful and talented sponsor this week is Deidre Mosher, who I admire and adore tremendously!
Deidre Mosher Bio:
Wildly Whimsical and
Seriously Sassy Art is definitely a trademark of Deidre Mosher.
I have been in the business of art for over 25+ years. Starting out as a
fashion illustrator, moving into Art Direction, where I did everything from
print to TV...and eventually I found my way back to illustration. My art is
just plain fun and my love of color is clearly evident in the designs I create.
I'm currently licensed with a variety of companies...my designs are used on
craft products, greeting cards/paper products, kitchenware, business products
and such.
I am first and foremost an...Illustrator and Designer. I am inspired by
seriously sassy & bold colors, but also love the 'wow factor' of classic
black and white designs. I'm crazy for stripes and dots, and they are a
repeated theme in my work.
As an Illustrator, I work in many mediums and styles, ranging from the line art
to pastels...having fun adapting them to the latest project. I am inspired by
some my favorite artists ...Matisse's use of bold color, Klit's knowledge of
figures and lavish attention to detail, and Gauguin's wild approach to his
subjects. They are all so 'awe inspiring'! I'm happiest when I am in my studio
and starting a new project...making a mess, experimenting...and even throwing
paint.
Any day in the studio is a great day!
I usually get an idea when I least expect it...so when the 'light bulb' goes
off...I sketch and sketch and sketch...(hence the reason I buy tracing paper in
bulk). I always begin with a pencil and paper, and it evolves from there. My
favorite part of the process?? EVERYTHING...from beginning to end.
The Grand Prize Winner this week will receive a $10 Gift Certificate!!

Happy Friday Post #1! If you're looking for the Broken Box Stock post, see above!
I am an Internet Technology Professional and an Artist. I always dreamed of being an artist, but I found out quickly that I needed another field to support my family so I pursued a Degree in Information Technology. I love to use Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and Fireworks to enhance my work. 
Happy Friday and welcome to Post #1 of the day! 
You do NOT need to use one of the Broken Box Stock images, but you won't have any trouble picking out any of them to play with I bet if you take a look, and there are also bunches of freebies to choose from too!
