After writing Friday’s post, Do You Wanna Date My Avatar?, I had no idea how I would top it. I mean, what could possibly be better than Felicia Day in cosplay? It almost seemed unfair of me to do a piece on another artist so close to that entry. But then I was reminded of Kenzie Allen’s (@cerena) incredible artwork when I saw this super sweet tweet appear in my twitter client and had to share it with you.
Kenzie reached out to us after seeing a post that Shawn Decker wrote on his blog after I reviewed his fantastic book, My Pet Virus and subsequently met with him at a local coffee shop. When I checked out Kenzie’s Twitter profile, I noticed she had a deviantART page so I clicked on the link and was blown away by what I found.
As you can see from the above picture, Kenzie has a style that is really all her own. I love her bold color choices and thick lines. But what strikes me the most about every one of her pieces is her character’s expressions. Here’s a great example:
Is it just me or do you wonder what she’s thinking? Kenzie really knows how to pull you in.
I’ve included a couple more images of Kenzie’s work below. If you’d like to check out more of what she’s doing be sure to visit her on deviantART, Myspace, or tumblr. You can also watch her draw on UStream! Bob Ross would be very proud.
Would you like Kenzie to create a portrait of you? If so, be sure to click here to read about some of the options she offers. Her pricing is really reasonable and, according to her deviantART page, your money goes to help her “get some ramen” 
I’d say that’s a pretty good cause.
Hope this finds you feeling healthy!
