My post for yesterday isn’t what I planned. I had a page in my morning pages that I meant to decorate for the month of October and I wasn’t able to get to it yet. Yesterday morning started out with me working on the October page. I left it for a bit to go outContinue reading “Inktober 2023 Day 19”

Happy Rubber Ducky Day
Here is something to make you smile as the day comes to a close. I have been trying to get to this all day and finally managed to find 40 minutes to work on this. I did a pen and ink sketch first thing this morning in my “dailies” sketchbook and used my sketch asContinue reading “Happy Rubber Ducky Day”
Carve December Day 23

I kept thinking about the song by Squeeze, “Pulling Mussels (from the shell)” so I thought of a bowl full of streamingContinue reading “Inchies Day 7”

Donuts
Fall would not be complete without cider donuts.
More Flowers

I may get a few more pages ready in my sketchbook so I can do more. In the meanContinue reading “More Flowers”
Sparky

Sea Hearts, Swan and Duckie
Violet, the tiny sea dragon, doesn’t have wings but longs to fly like her airborne cousins. Swan and Duckie are the best friends ever. Duckie always rides along on Swan’s back because, well, he’s afraid to swim.
