My Little Bliss List (Remembering the things that made me happy this week, because it’s so easy to forget them.) A short little Bliss List tonight. The power went off today, as it tends to do when it rains here. It’s quite common. It gave me a chance to sit down and get a few […]
October is filled with art challenges! One of the most popular is Inktober And then there is Drawlloween and all it’s spin offs, including ones by Jane Davenport and James Burke. I believe you have to be a member of their creative groups to access the prompts. The one I’m taking part in this year is […]
From My Word Bowl – 9 This week I drew two great phrases and the word, and, from my word bowl. The sketch I did, I didn’t really “fuss over”, except to add some watercolor to it. I think she looks a little surprised, by what I’m not sure, but I’m happy that the […]
A photo of my morning sketch. I love working with ink and watercolor.
What a busy week! How was your’s? I’m hoping it was wonderful and that you’re all set to have a fabulous and relaxing weekend. In between all the busy stuff that life throws at us, I did some doodles and a couple of quick little postcard size paintings. The doodles were done on two separate […]
Monday again! It rolls around so quickly. Today I have two water color paintings for you and a sketch. First the sketch which I did in color pencils so I couldn’t erase my lines, a suggested exercise by Jane Davenport. Painting Seventeen is another drippy water color girl. Painting Eighteen is water color also […]

My theme this past week seemed to have been centered on farms and freshness, thanks to Junelle’s Farmers Market Yum and Art Workshop. This is the last week for it and I am slowly working through it and savoring every project. I love it! The nice thing about it is even though this initial workshop […]
There’s been lots of doodling and sketching happening here over the last few days, but no finished work, yet. This flurry of activity was prompted by two things. The first was a challenge by my mother to make some happy looking girls. Smile, girls, smile! The second was that I joined Junelle Jacobsen’s Farmer’s Market […]
It was Sketch Fest #52 over at Ellen Million Graphics, this past weekend. There were so many art prompts left by fellow artists and art fans. Inspiration overload!! I selected a few that spoke to me. I started with the prompt ‘A spot of color’ given by Lynn Chua. This is what I did. […]
A little sketch which I’ll work more on. She has no name yet. I’m drawing a blank as to what to call her. Do you have any suggestions? Linking to: Friday Sketches
