Lady Wisteria- Guest Heart Thursday

This piece is a commissioned drawing for a friend of mine.  It is of her lovely Mother.  I put an Art Nouveau feel to the drawing--and there are hearts everywhere.  How many can YOU find?

May Flower Heart, ACEO - Random Challenge


Our Mission, through Random Challenges, was to make an ACEO/ATC using whatever art medium I choose--with the following theme:  May Flowers!

This is a piece of computer art I was experimenting with--using the filters I found in Photoshop.  I just love this picture--I was able to catch the beautiful color of the May Flower, along with having a lot of fun experimenting with a new art medium.

If you'd like to take part in this Random Challenge, visit SissyCea, SissyDea and SissyBea at Random Challenges!

Bootz in Living Color - Pink Saturday


This is my first ever entry for Pink Saturday on my art blog!  Here is Bootz the Cat in all her glory.  The scanner doesn't do justice to the original drawing.  The slight purple shading in the gray of her fur came out a LOT darker than it actually is--and the fine gray fur lines didn't hardly show at all.  So you'll have to use your imagination.

Happy Pink Saturday to all.  For more wonderful things in pink, visit Beverly at  How Sweet The Sound!

Morning Glory Faery - Sunday Scans


She looks a little pensive--Winter has lasted all too long. This drawing is another of my favorites, echoing the rich colors of the Morning Glory flower.

Some of my best childhood memories are embellished with the velvety purple flowers of Morning Glories. Turned upside down, they became beautiful maidens who danced along the tops of the grape vines near my grandmother's house.

It was always a mystery to watch them tightly closing against the night, only to burst into gorgeous flowering in the warm morning sunshine.
