I always feel like I have a children's book brewing in my creative teapot. :) I love drawing storybook characters in my art journal. This lady bunny is dressed to impress and wearing her pearls! I'll have to give her a place to go. :) Do you love to draw personified animals? They always seem so wholesome in a world of increasing unwholesomeness. I used ink and my Prismacolor pencils. I also added some Tonic Studios shimmer pen fun to the finished drawing. It's harder to see in the picture, ... View the Post
Oil Pastel Flowers in a Vintage Tin Painting
Oil pastels are so much fun to use! I was inspired by a photo in a Daphne's Diary magazine of wildflowers in a vintage tin. I used Mungyo and Paul Rubens oil pastels on Strathmore toned paper. I also used colored pencils for some of the finer details and writing. They work well with oil pastels! I created a digital paper (below) with this painting, as well as some other oil pastel paintings. I love the color and texture! I have close to eighty oil pastel videos on my YouTube ...

Oil Pastel & Inktense Mountain Landscape Painting
I love nature. Creation is a constant reminder that God is powerful and loves beautiful things! The majesty of mountains contrast with the peace of the fields.

Watercolor with Neutrals Palette & Video
I grabbed my Jane Davenport neutrals palette and created a colorful blob in my watercolor art journal. Sometimes, that is all I feel like doing when my brain is a creative mush. :) Once I did that, I saw a person! I then painted this girl. It was fun, and encouraging to know that just putting blobs of color down on paper can inspire something! VIDEO AT THE END OF THE POST. I added Inktense pencils and my white Posca paint pen for a few details. This Jane davenport palette has some great ... View the Post
Card Making Inspiration
I have been getting back into making cards lately. I am woefully behind on my paper crafting projects, as more of my attention has been on my surface pattern design original artwork. It has been fun to shop my supplies and rediscover the fun embossing folders dies, and kits! I have a variety of techniques in the pictures below, but the inky leaves are among my favorites. :) The Sizzix Leaf Fragments are so easy to use! Calligraphy inks and embossing folders are very easy ways to add ... View the Post
