Pollen

I had fun with the last pollen drawing and thought I had better do another.

Crystalline

The Sisters

Tree House

Haven't you always wanted a tree house. Don't you think all the time spent in it would be lovely and carefree. Think again! I'm pining for Mad Men.

Flora

My little painting for today, "Flora." It will be added to my Etsy shop soon.

Ripple

I made this little drawing for Illustration Friday, "Ripple." This week's topic is being done in collaboration with another blog in an effort to raise money to help the animal victims of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Head on over to the Ripple Sketches Blog to find out how to donate and receive this sketch in the mail.

the temple

And here for you today is a page from my sketchbook.

Today I made this little painting of our cat Vinnie and worked on another of my bird Milo.

Red Rider

Fearless

For Illustration Friday: Fearless!

Some curly quotes for you. I guess it's doodles day.

My dear husband is very busy these days building a house for us. Yes, this is a photo from the future!

Vanity

Today's little painting is called "Vanity."

Shop

Well I'm excited to say I've opened shop on Etsy. I'll be selling small paintings and drawings, stop by! Lots more will be coming soon.

cocoon

for illustration friday, "cocoon"

This is my little offering for the day. I'm calling it "night garden."

Grosbeak

Today I saw a rose-breasted grosbeak outside on the bird feeder. It was such a nice surprise. I saw them in Ontario, and I associate them with the woods. This is the first time I've seen one here in New Mexico.

I'm fairly sure flower fairies wear tennis shoes in their off hours.

Currently under the brush

Here's a little close-up of the painting I'm working on right now.
