ICAD update! June 4th thru 19th

I'm still hanging in there with the ICADs. Some days I want to give up but I'm trying to keep on going. It keeping me committed. Below are more ICADS dating from Jun4 to the 19th. I still have yesterdays and todays to do . I just was so busy with work that I wasn't able to make something yesterday but its Saturday so I take do both today.

I didn't follow the prompts so much early on but I started to pay more attention after the Beatles card (bottom right)
I really like the top left card. Well actually I like them all:)

Father's Day was stuck in there and that one was fun to do, particularly the watercolor background. I got a lot of good response on IG and FB for the Toy Camera card, it struck a chord with a lot of people. that was a surprise.

The orange flowers were tricky. I wanted to move away from my micron markers and try some india ink. The paper of the index card is a disaster to work with but I am going to keep trying. Maybe I need to gesso the card. not sure, I've got to test that out.

 

I hope you like having a look and I'm having a good time doing these. Making art everyday is the cure for a lot of things! Most importantly it get me out of my head.

Happy Saturday!

ICAD 3 LIFE is NOW

Here is ICAD 3.  Today is the day!

 

My friend has a nice garden so every time

I visit she gives me this amazing mint.

I put a leaf in my water every morning, along with a slice of lemon.

It's so delicious and refreshing.

 

We have petunias on the porch. I could not resist painting them in my art journal.

I gave this to my mother-in-law for one of her birthday gifts this weekend.

Happy Birthday Julia!

Have a great day everyone!
