finally, i made a few visual companions for those little voices that speak up when i commit social gaffes... for example, i did NOT tell someone to have a good weekend when it was only tuesday... i did NOT trip on the curb yesterday while i was carrying my two year old and eat the pavement... and i definitely did NOT think those rotten things about the woman who took the time to stop and watch our spectacular human splat and then just turned around and walked away... no, no, no, say the voices, i did not do, say, or think these things!
other thoughts... a big thanks to steve loya for his interview at go flying turtle. it was so nice of him to include me in his artist interview series... if you're local, be sure to check out heather smith jones' show at the merc; some of my favorite pieces are there...now, i'm off to artsygirl's holiday party at school, and then full force into a secret elf project...think jars of fun... i will post them later this weekend :)

Oh, can I relate! Even at my age, I'm still learning how to keep some thoughts to myself! :) Very clever work here!
These are great...I think we all have those kind of moments! I hope you are ok from the trip...that happens to me quite often!
speak no evil, do no evil, think no evil
Spectacular contemporary samplers. Great series. Also a variation on the three monkeys, as was remarked in the previous comment.
Lovely!
I love your sense of words and colours, so well expressed here:)
Great work!
This is so insanely true.love it!
You have such a knack for illustrating those crazy thoughts that we all seem to have. I really enjoy you blog. I nominated you for an award. Come to my blog and see.
I adore your hand rendered type!
there really should be a good samaritan law for something like your trip - hope you're both ok. love these and is it my imagination or did your sidebar switch sides? heather's show sounds great. i'm going to read your interview, now. have a nice weekend, aimee.
Very funny! I don't have these voices in my head either.
you mean someone watched you fall and left you there?! are you ok?
thank you for mentioning my show aimee :)
oh a secret elf project, i hope you'll share soon. :)
ouch...i hope you are okay
you are having a rough time, first with the finger incident and now the tripping incident...
another ouch
i love every one of these...we can certainly all relate...at least i know i can :)
Ohhhhh yeaaahhhh. Lots of evil thoughts live in my head, too. I have to make sure I keep them sealed inside.
Great trio here! Now wouldn't it be great if we had our own laugh track.
I hear you! :) Loving the text, too!
I feel you on this! he he he he. Great color and power! I really like this!
great work!
we all have that kind of thoughts from time to time:)
it wasn't me, i did not hear or say that either hehehe
sorry to hear about the fall though :L

Niice! I adore types :D just lovelly and great concept hehe think we have all been there :)
Oh, can I ever relate! When will I ever learn?
how fun to get to read your interview!
I got a good laugh today reading your three "voices of denial"...
a totally different one - and not denial -(my mother's) "do what I say not what I do" when we started questioning here orders
Great hand text!!Regards
Thank you Aimee!! In the meantime, yes, I sure can relate to this - haha! Awesome job!
your brain always thinks of something so unusual. i have missed you all but will be back in london on tuesday. hugs.
you could tattoo all three on my forehead...
Brilliant work, great interpretation of the theme!
I can definitely relate! I think it is okay once in a while just to say "I DID think that and I don't take it back!" LOL
Hope the little one recovered from the splat.
These are cheerful and just fun to look at. :) Nice work.
Ha! Very fun and great lettering work.
If only these great little voices were "do over" cards! Merry Christmas, Aimee.
No one is immune from the social gaffe. Great graphic style images and nice concept.
Every time I read these they make me laugh!! They are great!!
Please tell me you sell prints of these!!!! I feel this way ALL the time!
Once again, so inspired by your blog!
