WOW!!!

I have to be really honest . . .
Life totally happened all around me and I completely
forgot about this blog!

What have I been doing? OMGosh ~ EVERYTHING!
But, I'm not going to bore you with it ~ hehehe.

I will let you know though, that I have developed several
different tools that I have been using for my art.
As I have said before . . .

"I am not a purest in any one form ~ BUT ~
I am a purest in what feels good when I create,
whatever the method!"
.
For this post, I'll start with this part of what has been happening.
I have developed the idea of using "Stencils As Strings" and have had
more fun pursuing this project.
.
Here are some pictures.

This piece started with using the Triangles to Hexagons Stencil.

Oh, how I love pumpkins!!!!
Pumpkin Set ~ 3 Stencils ~ Bijou Size 2" Square 

.
Stained Glass Sunflower ~ Postcard Size.
.
I am trying desperately to complete at least one piece of artwork each day.
So please continue with me on my adventure!

Just have to share . . . .

I will often post the tools that I use ~ I don't intend to
overwhelm you with all of them at once.

BUT

I will share this with you right away because it
is one of my most valued tools to date.



This easel that Gary is using is a 6" x 6" and is a
PERFECT platform to use while drawing.

Both Gary and I have several ~ in our backpacks, purse, car,
on our patio, coffee table, night stand.

We use these while we are hiking, camping, boating,
sitting and talking with friends ~ or just plain relaxing and need an excellent
surface that is not cumbersome!

The Easel Way Up has so many sizes and designs to choose from.

Stay tuned for more of the tools I use.


Line Poetry

Several months ago I shared with Gary, my husband, a drawing I had just completed.
He took my "creation" and really looked at it, turning it as he always does.

He looked up at me and simply said, "Line Poetry."

I was blown away by the compliment.

I always feel really good after having taken the time to
just relax and let my feelings grow on paper.



I've decided to start this blog with the intention of drawing each day
and posting it here.

This will be about ALL types of drawing.

Lettering, tangling (I am a CZT from class #2),
doodling, stenciling, coloring, graphics, ????

I am not a purest in any one form ~ BUT ~
I am a purest in what feels good when I create,
whatever the method!

So please join me on my adventure!
