Soft Spoken

I did this a while ago in white charcoal on black paper.  14" x 11"

Even though it's not completely finished, it's one of my personal favorites.

Pencil Cup

Hurricane Irene rolled through our area this weekend.
Made a pencil cup out of scrapbook paper, mod podge, and a frozen fruit juice container to pass the time.

Grateful to have a warm, safe home....

The Hell with Good Enough

This is one of my favorites by Kathleen Moscow.

Sketchbook Journal - August

in watercolor. prepared for next week. ..

The thing I love best about painting in these tiny, 3"x5" pages is that you can experiment with different styles without feeling intimidated by a huge, blank canvas.

Inspiration: Rend Collective Experiment

This video makes me so happy that I want to share it with you here.

Enjoy.

Oh, Pinterest

I don't know how this happened, but I have 8,000+ followers on Pinterest!

If you haven't visited this fairly new site, it is a great place to catalogue your interests.  There are so many wonderful ideas, inspirations, and artists to be discovered (especially if you've just had a cup of coffee.:))

You can find my collection here:

Tiger in Pencil

This guy's gaze looked so gentle and warm in the photo I found of him 10 years ago.  

I drew him while I was in high school.  I can't believe it's been that long!

Encouraging Words

My dad is one of my biggest supporters.  He's loved me at my worst and cheered me on at my best.

Words can't describe how grateful I am for him.

I want to extend this encouragement to anyone who may feel down on themselves every now-and-again too. ♥

New Sketchbook ...and sock-monkey stickers
