Two small paintings...


My tribute to spring.

This is a painting I did a couple of years ago. I love cats. I have my own little kitty too. Sugarbear is an orange and white tabby. I can almost always find him sitting on top of my computer keyboard, in my office chair, or sitting on any freshly cleaned laid out to dry clothing...grrrrr.

Illustration Friday



I drew this quickly. I had a long night, dealing with clients after a long day at work. I relaxed and drew this. I spy. I just had fun drawing with no care about what came out. I love playing with color. This is acrylic paint, colored pencil, micron pens, gel pens and graphite. pretty silly.

Time Flies

I have been extremely busy with my work! Thats a good thing..but I always wish to have more time to do things just for myself. I have been going through the illustration friday entries and thinking of what I am going to submit. This time..I am, I am, I am. Here is what I have been doing. I have been trying to grow my freelancing business, so I have been working really hard on several projects and trying to make new contacts. So far a few new ones are made...pretty good! I am trying to eat more healthy, so today I had yogurt with blueberries and walnuts, sliced red peppers, cucumbers, grape tomatos and carrots with Ranch dressing..a yummy snack. I like to eat vegetarian as much as possible. The spring is so lovely, all of the trees and bushes and new grass that really light, pretty green...fresh and new. The redbud in my back yard is blooming as well as the tulip tree. The hostas are coming up and the iris as well. It has gotten warm early. 85 yesterday...amazing. Getting mentally prepared at work to do a big catalog, one of 3 that we do for the year. This is the last one for this year...it is always a flurry..it starts quickly and the deadline slams you. Always in a crunch. You kind of have to brace yourself. Still listening to K.T. Tunstall and David Grey..(is it Grey or Gray?)...fascinated by them both. Watched Memoirs of a Geishia last weekend, very nice. Watched finding Nemo..one of my favorite movies.
