Into Month 6 -

I had a lovely weekend with my husband. Friday we went and saw 'Big Miracle' and then watched 'The Help' at home. Saturday we went and saw 'The Vow'. I must say after watching that, I hope I never forgot Chris. Though I would give him the benefit of the doubt more then she did. It's been a long time since we had a movie weekend, felt good.


Speaking of movies, this Friday the new Studio Ghibli movie will be in theatres and I am praying that it'll come to my little city. 


I am officially in my 6th month of drawing, which adds to the craziness of life right now. I started a painting for the Juried Art Show. This Thursday I should be enrolling for my online schooling and starting that. 

 Day 151:


A cute caterpillar using crosshatch. 

 Day 152:


Another dragonfly. I love the style of scribble that I used for the wings. You have just built the darkness with layers. I learned that style in University weirdly.

 Day 153:


And to finish it all off, I tried a butterfly again. Maybe one day, I'll draw one that I actually like. Haha. Maybe I should try to draw an photo real butterfly. 

Day 154:


So for Month 6, I have decided to do doodles like I used to in High School. They are weird collaborations of things I see and things I imagine. Sometimes they are drawn representations of things, for example, this one is a wet kiss. Get it? Haha.

Craziness...

Almost Christmas.. so crazy. It doesn't feel like Christmas at all, but I am on track now. Finished my shopping today with my friend, Chantel. Just have to wrap and get them tucked away under the tree. 


Still trying to do some baking. Need to start some as soon as I am done posting this as I am heading to visit some friends and I want to take some for a Chrissy-mas present, but I didn't realize how long it had been since I had posted until my friend, Mandy, texted me today... a lot. ;)


So my 4th month of drawing is going to be.... quotes.
I read quotes on a daily basis on my Twitter feed and on my Facebook, so I am going to take some of the ones I like and post them here with some doodles around them. 


Most of my quotes are from @AffirmYourLife and @Inspire_Us on Twitter. And Oprah's Facebook page. And Soul Pancake, which if you have never checked out... you should... just saying. 

Day 93:

Nothing really to say about most of them. The quotes are what they are and I tried to draw something associated with it. 

 Day 94:


Love, love, love this quote... (multiplied by forever)

 Day 95:

 Day 96:


I think people think I am weird and I think I am weird... but that is ok.

 Day 97:

 Day 98:


I little sloppy, but was trying to get a lot done yesterday while working both jobs, when I thought I only worked one. Haha go me.

Day 99:








And just after celebrating 3 months of drawing..


tomorrow will be 100 days! Holy moley!


Well, I, for sure this time, only work one job tomorrow. So in between wrapping presents, baking, cleaning and going out to check the mail, I will draw an extra special quote.

Doodles..

So lately, my flowers have just been doodles after my day's at work. No real meaning, just doodles. I didn't really want to do anything after work, but I, at least, drew. 

 Day 86:

 Day 87:

 Day 88:

Day 89:


















Holey Moley! I am coming up to 3 months. And so close to 100 days of drawing. I should start thinking of a new theme for the next month.




Hmm... (ponder ponder)
