“Worn” – Illustration Friday

A very last minute watercolor sketch to get me going again with Illustration Friday. I originally was thinking about masks, and decided that you don’t need to wear a full mask to wear one. (keep clicking for closer look.)A plastered on smile is often worn...

Resolve – Illustration Friday

resolve

I have resolved to keep up with IF; this is the only image that has come to mind all week.

I always have a lot of ideas and they can overwhelm me, so I resolve to maintain some serenity amongst my thoughts and ideas.

clandestine

Finally, I am getting back to Illustration Friday. This week’s word is “clandestine”, and immediately I cannot be serious and have the image of Groucho disguise glasses sitting in a drawer with a squirt gun, fake id’s and passports, pepper gum and other tools of the sneaky world. Before I could settle on a sketch, I saw a photo of a friends daughter with the groucho glasses on – adorable on this already expressive wee child – and it made me think of a candy sneak. So here’s my take on “Clandestine”, via my lovely friend’s little gal.

Back to Blogging?

I started school the week of August 25th and WOW, have I had an adjustment. I haven’t journaled, painted, blogged, SparkPeopled, or read more than three pages at a time for pleasure.

However, I have got my kids settled into the new school year, kept my weight steady, done laundry, cooked a few meals, had a few dates, read and watched a LOT of political news, and really fallen in love with my Library Information Technology courses. LOVE them. I lucked into a program that is way more cool than I expected.

And, I did just receive info that my Bouree – Eight of Hearts will be on the European Papers poster. Yippy! Who cares if perhaps they didn’t have any other Eight of Hearts… :)

So, hello lonely blog. I need to get busy. I miss this outlet, and visiting those blogs I love.

Yeh, Bourree!
