Gah - Sick Girl

Not a great shot - but I thought it was fitting for my current status. This is a headband.

I can't believe I some how caught a flu - it's really kicking my butt too. Aches, pains, chills, and fever are the worst part.

I will catch up on Creative Challenge in the next day or two.. I really don't have time to be sick.. especially when the weather is so nice!

Day 12 of 21 - Boy Walking Dog

#12 of 21.

I don't draw enough males in my illustrations, so made a point to draw a boy walking his dog for this one.

Day 11 of 21 - Watering

Illustration Friday - Electricity

There is something so amazing about getting natural electricity from the sun, not to mention, wind and water.. good stuff. The other drawing I did for this was Totally Solar Electricity - I decided to post the rough from my sketchbook too - a bit dorky, but hey, what can I say I'm a kid of the 80's. My color scheme is a bit more 70's in this piece though.

Thanks for visiting :)



These are also my #10 of 21 creative challenge.

Windy Day

Things are quite busy around here lately - freelance work, birthdays, mother's day, graduation, planting, drawing, oh and talking on the phone with one of my closest pals - Curt Rogers at While Walking Duncan blog. And he says I never plug his blog :)

I have been drawing in my sketchbook - even have an idea for Illustration Friday that I need to get on the computer - but I will have to share that tomorrow. Today I wanted to post a picture I took this weekend that came out crisp and gorgeous. I love the color of the petals and that the camera caught them so well on a windy day. It made the picture all the more unique in my eyes. The petals almost look like shaved chocolate or pencil shavings maybe... anyways.. off to bed I must go!

Day 9 - Quick Draws

I didn't have much time today - though I did create several designs for work and a freelance project that I wanted to finish up tonight. So I decided I would scan in some doodles that I really liked from my sketch book - I definitely want to make something with the girl in the upper right.

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers. My mom liked her card and gift :)

Did this for Day 9 of Creative Challenge.

English Daisy + Rhododendron

I picked a few flowers off our little Rhododendron and put them with a pink English Daisy I already had in my studio. I loved the combination so decided a picture was a must for my blog. I played around with the coloring a bit and am very happy with how this turned out - a bit different than more normal bright colored photos.

Day 8 - Free Draw

I think I am behind on posting, but I have been drawing. This is a page from my sketch book - even though I get nervous showing this kind of thing ..but that is part of this challenge for me.

Blooming in the Yard

Our Rhody's are blooming right now - mostly this pink one is fully bloomed. The others are slowly opening up.

I went and picked up some chocolate mint - I looooove the smell. Can you tell I love mint!?
