EDM 259 - A Pet's Perspective

We don't have a pet right now, so I borrowed a favorite pet from a movie. "Brinkley is my dog...." ~Joe Fox. F-O-X.

EDM 258 - The Inside of My Closet

Oops! I thought the prompt said "the closet of my dreams." Phew! I almost let everyone see my actual closet! Dodged THAT bullet! My dream closet would have more closet and fewer clothes. You know, like being able to see the back wall?

EDM 257 - A House Plant

This is my violet, and it is alive and blooming. Both of these facts are a pretty big deal. Violet! I love the color, the name, the plant. And in blooming, I think my violet might be loving me back. That might be one sentiment too far. :)

Baby Ninjas Doodle

Here's one way I use up ink. This started with swaddled ninja quintuplets. Do you see 'em?

If you don't find drawing very detailed line art relaxing, you should NOT attempt this at home! I love it. I know that many people would NOT be relaxed by it. It takes all kinds!

Spring Break!

This is a very non-traditional journal page for me, but I loved the way it turned out. I work at a college, and we're enjoying a quiet week as the students are away on spring break. Maybe that's why I got all whimsical and wonky. I'll journal on the lines of the accordion-folded "thing" later.

That Ship Has Sailed

This is a concept piece I painted in my private art journal a couple months ago. It was strangely satisfying to get this down on paper!

EDM 256 - Something Bubbly

I don't know why Andy Warhol painted soup labels. How do you put your artist's heart into rendering food labels? I don't get it...and it isn't that I haven't tried. :)

I do like this seltzer, though. It's what I drink when I'm trying to NOT drink Diet Coke!
