Here is day 3. I tried doing a few things differently with this guy. I really like how he came out. All of these Christmas Countdown pieces all start with a pen and ink sketch and then I scan them in to my digital program to add color. I have been having fun with these.

Winter Sweater
Day 2 of the Christmas Art Countdown. If I still lived in the snow belt I would have to consider getting a sweater like this. I had fun designing it.
Christmas Countdown – Day 1
Some playful images coming up this month for you to enjoy while you prepare for Christmas (or other holidays) during the month of December… For Day 1, we have a chubby penguin.

AEDM Days 24 – 30
I haven’t posted anything for the week because of the holiday. Even when I am busy with holiday activities, I still create every day. I have also added writing to my routine. Nothing earth shattering, but I am learning some tricks and plan to add that to my daily routine. I have been doing itContinue reading “AEDM Days 24 – 30”

AEDM Day 16 – Watch dog FAIL
Last night, I opened a window a bit to let in fresh air. John, Chloe and Mack were in a coma. Chloe’s snores are pretty loud…Mack is still have sinus trouble poor thing…. Around midnight…. That sketch pretty much sums it up. The howls were very disconcerting. There is something primal about how we reacted.Continue reading “AEDM Day 16 – Watch dog FAIL”
AEDM Days 14/15
I zonked out early yesterday and I forgot to post. I was working on some sketches yesterday that I don’t want to share yet, but I thought of a new themed sketchbook that I will probably start after I finish my Christmas cards. Another task that I tackled yesterday, in my bullet journal, was myContinue reading “AEDM Days 14/15”
