And Things That Go Bump in the Night!
This is a bit of a change. I have no idea for a birthday gift for one of my best friends. Her birthday is March, so I have some time. Of course, when I run out out of ideas, art always comes to my rescue. I’m hoping my friend doesn’t look at my blog and […]

Here’s A Little Story
And it goes like this… Okay, I lied. It’s not much of a story, it’s a blog post about my latest drawing. I’m coming to the end of my winter art, and my quarantine. I’m not sure what February will bring, artwise, but I do know I’ll have my foot up and ice on my […]

I’m Sick of This
One thing or another, I haven’t been able to do artwork. Earlier in the month, I had Covid-19. I also was getting ready for knee replacement surgery. As it turns out, I’m feeling fine, no one who has been in contact with me has gotten sick, and I quarantined as required. As it turns out, […]

Now that life has settled down for a while, I’m ready to do something full-sized. But I’m stuck. So, here are the notecards […]

What A Card!
I’ve always wondered where the term card came from, to describe a witty person. No, I haven’t always wondered that, but it was a good excuse to hop on Google. Evidently, the first use of the term in literature was from Dickens, I think it said 1863. But I’m talking about notecards, greeting cards and […]

Violated My Own Rule!
Bob Ross always said, there are no mistakes, just happy accidents. In my latest attempt, I was happy accidenting all over the place. My usual rule is: Don’t draw when you’re absorbed with other things. I violated my own rule. I do have an idea of how to salvage it, but not today. I do […]

Love Shack, Baby!
Ok, I’m wrong, my devotion to the B52’s not withstanding. It’s a love nest. My friend looked at it and said ” You must have been a little squirrely when you drew this. “. Another friend chimed in, “No, she was just plain nuts!”. Well, so much for my friends. It is a squirrels’ nest. […]
