Lady and the Tramp

Title: He's a Tramp

A scene from Disney's "Lady and the Tramp!" This is from the song "He's a Tramp," where Peg (gray dog) tells Lady (cocker spaniel) about Lady's new boyfriend's Achilles' Heel. Perhaps the sketchiest song in Disney cartoon history. LOL



Song lyrics (performed by Peggy Lee):

"He's a Tramp, but they love him.
Breaks a new heart every day.
He's a Tramp, they adore him.
And I only hope he'll stay that way.

He's a tramp, he's a scoundrel, he's a rounder, he's a cad.
He's a tramp, but I love him!
Yes, even I have got it pretty bad.

You never know when he'll show up.
He gives you plenty of trouble.
I guess he's just a no 'count pup.
But, I wish that he were double.

He's a tramp. He's a rover!
And there's nothin' more to say.
If he's a tramp, he's a good one,
And I wish that I could travel his way,
Wish that I could travel his way,
Wish that I could travel his way."

Lion King

Can You Feel the Love Tonight?

There's a recent trend on the internet where you color kids' coloring pages. I think it's kind of silly, really, but I do love The Lion King! The story is actually quite good and from an artistic standpoint, the music and animation are outstanding.

This is a linocut print that I've made. Linocuts are made by taking linocut board and carving out all of the areas of your print that you want to stay white. Then, ink is rolled over the carved piece, the piece is pressed onto your media, and your print is made!

It's a Lion. Enough said.

PowerPoint!

Okay, so I like to collect Schleich animals, especially the horses. Apparently that's a crime for someone my age? LOL Come on, everyone has their pointless hobbies!

I just finished one of my first desktop/wallpaper designs. It's free to use, but seeing as I made it, my signature must be left on it. Just click on the image to view it larger, then save it onto your computer to use as a background.

Next to Normal

Kristen Hall's Next to Normal poster concept

I was entered in a poster contest for Center Stage of South Carolina's new musical, Next to Normal. Naturally I did not win, but that's just the story of my life. LOL

 The winning poster was very cute (although cuteness has nothing to do with the plot and overall emotion of Next to Normal). The emotional impact of the winning poster was one of endearing childlike innocence and it was crafted so that it looked like it was made out of a small child's building blocks and cartoon sketches. Very cute! I will post it here once the finished version is available. :)




Plot of Next to Normal: (SPOILER ALERT) Next to Normal revolves around a distraught and broken family. The main character is the mother, who is a manic-depressive, Schizophrenic, fractured woman who hallucinates about her dead infant son who was born out of wedlock. She believes that the son has grown up and is a young man. Her daughter feels rejected and "invisible" and therefore turns to drugs. The husband, who is trying to hold the house together, begins to feel the strain of holding together a family that is pulling apart. He hallucinates and has emotional, confused breakdowns as well. Although the wife firmly believes that her son is still alive, the husband knows he is dead and refuses to say the son's name. The story ends with the mother leaving the family and the father recognizing his hallucination.  The story does not have a happy ending although it is poignant and does have some resolution. Center Stage has “cleaned up” the script, although they still aim it at a PG-13 audience.
