Giraffe Dancer

  Of the friends that I have in my life...I am truly blessed to have absloutely incredible ones.
This drawing is for another one of those friends.
This one has a lot of meaning, but I am not going to go in to all of that.  The dancing figures are something that I created a few years ago and I love them.  They make me feel free...  It would be great to be able to create all day long-to just be involved in art type work.  Sigh...maybe someday.  In the meantime, I will just continue to crank it out in the evenings and on weekends!

(On another note....it is 65 degrees outside today....in January!  It felt so nice!)

New Artwork

Wow~where has the time gone?!  I have been busy getting through the holidays and working on some new handmade books and artwork.  I have a new technique that I am doing with my pen and ink.  I am using pen, ink and pencil.

This is a piece that I did for a friend of mine.  I have never drawn a cat or an owl in anything I have done before.  Well, at least not as an adult.  I really liked how it turned out, and I think she liked it too.  I will be posting more artwork and the books when I have them finished.  

If it keeps snowing and if the temperature outside doesn't
get any better, I just might have a lot to post.  I can't stand the thought of going out there!  (Well-of course-I still have to go to work)

I always welcome feedback!
