I am switching sketches because the one I actually did for today is being used for another purpose. Day 24’s prompt was “Joy.” I swtiched out Joy for today, plus the colors suit Hankkah better. Happy Hanakkah to all of those celebrating today! Peace and Joy be with you all!

AEDM Day 13- First Thanksgiving 2.0
I upgraded my First Thanksgiving design to add “menus” and then submitted it for posting to They Draw and Cook. I haven’t posted there in a long time and I originally intended to do a map but it segued into a Feast. I am still wanting to do the map. Researching foods for the firstContinue reading “AEDM Day 13- First Thanksgiving 2.0”
AEDM Day 12 – First Thanksgiving Foods
Here’s what I worked on today….just an idea for what a spread on the first Thanksgiving would have looked like.
AEDM Day 9 – It’s all about Process
Since I committed to doing a post a day for ART EVERY DAY MONTH, I am posting this, although much of today was doing research and sketches for a map I am working on and there is nothing sexy about a page full of lists. I won’t bore you with that. Plus, you’ll see theContinue reading “AEDM Day 9 – It’s all about Process”
AEDM Days 6 & 7/Commissions
For the past few days I have been working on holiday stuff. I forgot to post yesterday but creating can be intense work. I was thinking on making some cards this year instead of printing them even though I have had my design done since the beginning of the year. We’ll see. I may cutContinue reading “AEDM Days 6 & 7/Commissions”
Inktober Day 18 – Marty
Going rogue today and using my morning blob sketched with ink as my Inktober for the day….I had an assignment to describe a character in 25 words or less and although I had a different one already to go, this guy was very pushy and demanded a chance to be developed. The dragon is outContinue reading “Inktober Day 18 – Marty”
Sad news
This morning we had to make one of the most difficult and painful decisions that a one has to make when living with fur children. This is very difficult to write but I won’t be able to write this later when reality sets in. Cleopatra, our foundling kitty, the kitty that was inserted into manyContinue reading “Sad news”
Black Cat Appreciation Day
Today is Black Cat Appreciation Day. Cleopatra is our black kitty that we found, literally, on the street. Or she found us. She ran right up to me and was “no bigger than a bowtruckle.” Cleo lives with my daughter in a nice house in Orlando. Cleo has been the inspiration for lots of myContinue reading “Black Cat Appreciation Day”
My contest submission
Another amateur animated ‘toon. This one was my submission for the Kitchen Table Mini Film Festival. I can’t wait to do another! This was an awesome idea by Carla Sonheim and Kara Kramer. I could still do a ton of things to this video to tweak it but I had a deadline. I still mayContinue reading “My contest submission”
A little video….
I took Carla Sonheim’s class on animation called “Make it Move” and it was fun and really helpful. I enjoyed it a lot and it gave me ideas how to handle animating my art in the future. My head is popping with ideas. One assignment was to animate some collage pieces…..this is a very shortContinue reading “A little video….”
