PPF I'll be gone for awhile

Hi Everyone!

Here it is the second  week of May already. Next week I am leaving on a trip to visit my daughter and her husband. My SIL has just been promoted to Master Sgt in the US Marines and has been stationed to VA. Yep I  am going to VA.  So this will be the last post on PPF until I return in June.  Flying is not a good thing for me so my doctor has prescribed some meds for me to make the trip a bit easier. I really don't like flying alone but I will make an adventure of it.  Have you ever been to VA? If so where about? I would like to know. Or maybe you live there.
A big thanks to Eva and Krista for hosing Paint Party Friday.

Not much art this week but here are a few pieces.

This is a quick draw I think maybe 15 minutes

Paint Partry Friday 5/3

Hi Everyone!

Wow I just about missed PPF. I have been so busy this week that my days have passed me by. All of the art I have are WIP and no photos. It has been dark and overcast so not good for photos. I drew this in the last 30 minutes to have something for PPF. Yikes!!!
My days are full and very busy.  I am working on 6 leather projects all at the same time. Most everything is dry and I will airbrush tomorrow and try to get some embellishments on. 
What have you been doing? Leave me a comment about your week.

Here is the quick draw for tonight. 
 Ohhh this one I did last week. I took this photo then worked on the face some more. When I went to take the final photo I dropped my camera on the drawing and put a fold in the paper. So this is kind of funky.

Let me see what else I can find to show.
Oh here are two leather pieces I have not shown yet. 
OK I am doing better than I thought. LOL

 
Thanks to Eva and Kristen for hosting Paint Party Friday.

Photos with new camera

Hi Everyone!
It feels like my life is on high speed and I am loving every minute of it. This is the first time I have felt this good in over 22 years. So I am taking full advantage of it. At the beginning of the year I was gifted a beautiful new camera. I joined the camera club and am so happy I did. I have learned so much from these wonderful photographers. I have been getting use to the new camera and learning just what constitutes a good photo. I still have a lot to learn but at the last meeting got an applause and a pat on the back for showing a good photo. The encouragement there is pretty amazing. So here are a few photos I have taken recently.
Hope you enjoy.

 Another shot of that sweet cow

The next two photos were taken at the airplane and space museum
Not conducive to great photography but I had to get this shot.

This is the Spruce Goose. It is gigantic.
