Catch-up

I've fallen off the blog wagon for a bit... I'm back though! I recently participated in a tag swap that was held by a FB group I feeling to. I mailed my tag this week and eagerly anticipated the tag coming my way:)) this is part of the rabbit I don't want to show it entirely until my partner receives it.

I've been posting lots on Instagram and lately I've been leaning towards flowers as you can see ;)

Hoping for spring while drawing these daffodils!

I used a white gel pen for the one below. I have this small Fabriano book with all different color pages and I love using this white pen on the darker colored pages!

Have a great day!

ICAD #? who's counting

I posted last night because I thought I had to go updstate today but it ended up I didn't have to ake the trip. So I'm having more time than I thought I would today. yay!

As for the ICAD, I have stopped keeping track. I'm so far behind its pointless...LOL. But I just love this challenge and can't stop:)

I wanted to try out a card that is related to another challeng and that would be Inspiration Avenue's teapot challenge. I am a HUGE coffee drinker but do drink tea occasionally. I like the idea of all the 'accessories' that involve tea, the pots, the spoons, the tea balls, the cozies, etc etc. I also like the different shapes of the pots and cups. And they are so fun to draw.

The index card I made shows pot and cup shapes  I saw on Pinterest.

Damn that Pinterest is like a vortex, its so hard to get out of there!

Thank goodness its cooler today but we've still managed to keep ourselves holed up today since we've been doing that for the past 4-5 days now, tomorrow I'll get myself out of the house:)

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

More White On White...and then some!

Here are some photos of things I am trying out. I went to our ATM Collective meeting on Monday and there are a few more spots available for our White on White show next week. We have alot of work already but there is alot of wall space:) I am trying out another paper collage. I want to go bigger. I am so used to working at 4x6 or 5x7 sizes that when do something about 11x14 I think I am going really large (LOL) and, nope, I'm not! I gotta break free and go BIG! So I tried to fold some paper and cut some squiggly background. I am not certain this is what I will end up with but I am having fun!

other shapes



 While looking through recent photos I realize that I have a bit of an affinity for white these days. Must be on the brain due to the show. Here are a few that I pulled up when I was picking out the others above!

Red Velvet cupcakes

Flowers at Adams

Frosty ;D

white tree, that I like and hate simultaneously

the endless cup o' joe

Are you finding that you are drawn to one color lately , or maybe more often than that?

I was reading a favorite blog the other day and she posted all about red. That's what inspired me with posting my white photos, thanks Carol! :)

Thanks for stopping by!

AEDM ~Day 7 - Cloudiness and Ropes of Rain

Coming in again late...oh well:)) I did this drawing originall on black board with white gel pen but it didn't looks so great to me, so I switched up the colors in Picnik. I put the black one down below too. Hope everyone is enjoying this challenge. I am having a great time checking out people's blogs as well as meeting up with others on Flickr. I went to Art(that Matters) tonight for our bi-monthly meeting. We're planning a show in December called "White on White" and all the artwork has to be done in white or slight variations of white with tints of colors. I have tried a few ideas but still having a think about it:) This is tough! But it will be fun. We're all getting involved with the hanging, planning, advertising, etc. They've even decided to serve white food at the opening, LOL! They stopped at dressing in all white.

SHARPIE LOVE

I am in love with white Pentel gel pens and colored Sharpie markers these days!

They are fast and fun and about as much as I can deal with at this time. Work is crazy hectic but I can doodle during little breaks in my day..can't I? :D

The smell can knock me out though, I have to say. That Sharpie pen, particularly the thin one, it so strong I have to just stop for a bit to catch my breath!
Hope everyone is having a good week! Sketch away!
