What I Wore

 

The weather was quite spring like here, unusually warm for February. So all I needed was a jacket.
And, I found another opportunity to wear my new sheer blouse. I love how flowing and feminine it is!

So I changed the name of these updates to "Artwork Updates" because some of these are obviously more than just sketches and have even been added to my Society6 shop. For instance I just added "Red" above, so now you can get this as a print and more!

Some bunny sketches getting ready for spring!


This "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" is in my shop too!

What I Wore


We celebrated Valentines Day over the weekend by trying out a new restaurant, and I got a chance to try out my very first sushi ( though I kind of wimped out and only had veggie, no raw fish). It was pretty good! And my daughter granted me the privilege of taking her picture, see below.
Dress: H&M
Moto jacket, tights, and boots: Target
Purse: thrifted



I hate to brag but I love my daughter's outfit, she looks so pretty!

Sketch Update and Society6 Sale


Time once again to catch you up on some of my latest paintings. I always have to fit in a cat in one of my drawings of course.


And I'm always working on improving my people painting skills, so I did a little self portrait of me at Barnes and Noble.


I love how this painting of herbs turned out. It was a part of a drawing challenge.


This painting of Alice falling down the rabbit hole is for an art challenge called the Fairy Tale project! Such fun!


Lastly is this fun little teacup painting I did that is now listed in my Society6 shop! And right now Society6 is having a great sale with 15% Off + Free Worldwide Shipping on EVERYTHING when you click on this link!
I hope you take advantage of this wonderful sale as it expires: February 12, 2017 at Midnight Pacific Time.
Bye for now!

What I Wore


It was dots and stripes, black and white for me in this outfit! I do seem to gravitate toward black and white this time of year for some reason.

Science Museum and 16th Birthday


On Saturday, we went to the Science Museum of Minnesota to celebrate my daughter's 16th birthday. We try to go once a year, and we really love it! There were a few new things, like this cool video globe that change scenes every few minutes. But one thing that didn't change is the giant astronaut.


I hope they never get rid of him (or her), he is the highlight of the museum for me!


Another feature is the staircase that plays music when you go up and down. Pretty cool, although it does get a little old after awhile. 


And here is the birthday girl with her cake, chocolate of course! 16 candles!


I can't believe it's been 16 years since she was born! How time flies!

Sketches of the Week

Still in a Christmas and winter mood with my art, and still working on my technique with gouache. It's a much trickier medium than I ...
