Imaginary still-life

More sketches. I hope I can develop this into something larger. I had in mind a painting or drawing for the kitchen. Keep in mind my walls are green.

Sunshine and Roses paper-doll download

I love the sun! I feel so good when the sun is shining. in my gratefulness for the sun I pay tribute and honor the sun symbolically in my artwork in small ways whenever I can. I love creating paper-doll downloads. I hear such wonderful stories about how people are giving them as gifts, including them in parties, and how they are inspiring creativity. they are also an inexpensive way to collect artwork. To find out more about this paper doll and to see what is included in the 8 page download visit my Etsy shop.

Working in colored pencil






I am working on improving my drawing. This one is colored pencil on white card-stock. I like using plain card-stock. On this one I used Prisma color colored pencils, crayola colored pencils and calligraphy marker.

A new paper doll download, retro paper dolls. They have instructions and patterns for lots of variations, collars, dress shapes and aprons.





Here is a variation made with the same pattern using handmade elements (not included with the pattern). This pattern is very compatible with stickers, chipboard embellishments and rubberstamps.
