Hello, my name is Nora Thompson,
and I'm a doodle addict. Pittsburgh, PA Plus

I’m an all-around artist, partly out of necessity and partly out of the need to explore new things. I’m an illustrator, graphic designer and fine artist, and I also write. I love playing with new mediums, and for some reason have amassed enough sketchbooks to last me the rest of my life. Each one has a theme, and I love finding new ways to fill them.

I specialize in art, childrens illustration, digital art, drawing, graphite, illustration, painting, pen and ink, typography.

Seals and clocks = an intriguing combo I’d say.

I think I've used this festive hangover as an excuse for (what seems) a little too long now, hahahaha! Back to business...

A quick group portrait I made to try making a timelapse of the process. The timelapse is posted to my instagram account. This time, I used brown and yellow bister ink on watercolor paper. Normally I paint the monsters themselfves, but now I used negative painting to create them.

A personal mindfulness reminder in old timey cartoon style.

An experiment to see if I could represent decay using line. I learned a lot.

"English as She is Spoke" is a delightful example of incompetence and bad judgement. Jose da Fonseca and Pedro Carolina set out to write a Portuguese-English phrasebook. The only problem was that they didn't speak any English. They did know some French and armed with French-English phrasebook, dictionaries and enthusiasm they brought forth this book. Mark Twain was an early admirer of this book. "Nobody can add to the absurdity of this book, nobody can imitate it successfully, nobody can hope to produce its fellow; it is perfect, it must and will stand alone: its immortality is secure."
