SHE

Hi Everyone!

"She" is finished. She makes no apologies for her life, needs no validations. Her soul is seen on her face wrinkled with time and life. She embraces the goodness in all people and fights against the abuses. She sometimes stands alone, speaking out and loud, and then, her energy draws in others, and the loud becomes clear. "She" is the spirit of all women, beautiful, strong, intelligent, and standing together. "She"

PAINT PARTY FRIDAY 11/17

Hi Everyone!

First I need to apologize for not getting to all of you this last week. Lots of medical stuff going on out of town. I always leave a comment for everyone and I just couldn't get it done this week.  A big thanks to Eva and Kristen for hosting 
Paint Party Friday.  I have two drawings this week. Like I said lots of out of town traveling. 
Thank you to everyone who comments on my blog. I appreciate it so very much.
 Now for art.
This was a difficult study. Hiding the forefingers and thumbs and trying to make this look realist. It is all a lesson. 
To see the detail click on the picture.


I bought new paper last week and I DO NOT LIKE IT! 
It is Strathmore
drawing paper but not what I normally buy. It is lighter weight, a different tooth, and it folds or rolls. Shading is much different as well.  Next time I go to town I will get my regular paper.


Have a great weekend everyone!

PAINT PARTY FRIDAY 11/10

Hi Everyone!

My week, again, has been a whirl wind. I am happy to say that I am handling it well on a lupus scale. Tonight I will be attending our monthly bead meeting. I know I have said it before, but I  can't express how much fun we all have. So I look forward to the night. Tomorrow morning a friend and I are driving into Eugene for an Art and Craft show. I can't remember the name of it but it is at the Willakenzie Grange, if any of my Oregon friends are interested. The weekend off and then it all starts again. LOL  Let me know how your week has been. I look forward to seeing all of your art. A big thanks to Eva and Kristen for hosting  
Now for art.
A few drawings


Silhouette painting

 I like how these two work well together on the wall.

and a bit of abstract.

Hi Everyone!

I have had such an enjoyable week. The sun was out with no wind. We have never had as long of and Indian summer as this year and I am loving every minute of it. It is raining now but I feel OK with it. I also got my machines up and running for Nicole's BeadBacking. Thanks to all of you for being patient. Colors are coming in and I do have Midnight Black, Snow White, Dove Grey, and Mocha Cream in stock. Ya know at Beadwright I was able to draw a bit this week and finished a leather piece. 
Thanks to Eva and Kristen for hosting 

Here is "StoneWalled"





 Drawing for this week




Now, this isn't something I normally do but this is my great granddaughter for Halloween. Isn't she a cutie?
