Blooming Tuesday - Rose

This is a rose that I painted on a card to send to a blogger friend that is very ill.  It is a rose from her garden that she pictured on her blog. She said that it was her favorite.  While my colors are true to her photo it is close. I think she will enjoy it. I want her to have roses all winter. Happy Blooming Tuesday.

Sunday Scribbles

It seems that on Sunday while watching football games or just relaxing I get a page of scribbles.  These scribbles usually bring to mind something I want to improve in my drawing.  Like faces.  Some people can make such interesting faces when just seeming to doodle.  Mine always seem the same.  Same eyes, Same mouth. Faces are so intersting to me.  Especially the eyes.  I hope you are having a restful Sunday and you can sit and scribble or do just what ever your heart desires today.  Cheers.

Animal Wedensday - Robin's Bee

Robin at Robin's Nesting Place takes the most fantastic photos.  They often inspire me to a little sketch. She is so generous with her work.  You should go take a look at her work. Happy Animal Wednesday.

Happy Halloween

How long has it been since you have carved a pumpkin?  For us it had been a l-o-n-g time.  So when we were invited to a pumpkin carving party...well, we had to do one ahead of time to be prepared.

I always wanted a fancy cut out.  We bought one of those kits with patterns

and various knives, scrapers, drills.  Surprisingly all of these little plastic tools worked good.

We ended up with fun pumpkins to display.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN
