A is for Alphabet -Paint Party Friday

I love lettering.  This is one of my creations from long ago.  I have drawn pages and pages of fanciful fonts over the years.  It is SO much fun to do!

I'm posting something from the past again, because of the business of my life right now. I am preparing for an extended trip and didn't have time to draw something new.  I hope you enjoy this font doodle from my sketch book.

Have a lovely weekend dear ones.  Thank you for dropping by.  Your comments always encourage my heart.  I am so grateful for the encouraging things you write!  Grace and peace be to you, sweet Friends!

Admiring Felines -Paint Party Friday


I am going to be SO busy this week, I decided to post a cartoon from the far past.  I drew this in the 1990s.  Looking at this drawing, I think those cats have a family resemblance to Garfield--one of my favorite cartoons. I hope you enjoy seeing this silly doodle from my sketch book.  I know it is rough, but it is fun, too. 

Happy Paint Party Friday dear Friends!  Have a beautiful week.  Thank you for dropping by--your visits are always a great encouragement to my heart.

Sweet Smiles -Paint Party Friday



Here is a recent sketch from my sketchbook.  The mosaic window behind this dear girl actually has roses hidden in it.  When it is inked and color added, I think it will be more easily seen.  I love to hide things in my drawings.


Above you see my reference photo featuring my sweet Friends Rena and Heather.  By the way, I made the red cloak from some old velvet curtains which once hung in my in my office.  The green cloak was made from an old army blanket.  I believe these days, they call this "re-purposing!"


This time around, I'm including an old ACEO drawing from 2010.  It is called What's a Dragon to do?  As you can see, the poor fierce dragon is totally baffled by the loving attentions of that amorous little birdie. 

Happy Paint Party Friday, all you wonderful artists and beautiful people. May God bless you, dear ones.  Have a lovely weekend and thank you for dropping by.

Purple Moon -Paint Party Friday


I painted this large acrylic on a large canvas in 2010 to honor the life of a dear little friend. Crickette's extraordinary story can be found at Angel Stories.  Her face is hidden in this painting--can you find her?


We still miss our small mischievous Crickette'. 


Above is another peek into my sketchbook.  I found a wonderful photo of a cat yawning--it so hit my funny bone, this sketch popped out of my pencil.  Bwaahahahahaa...Dragon Breath!  I am sure Crickette' would have smiled to see this one.

Have a lovely day, sweet Friends!  Happy Paint Party Friday!

Sisters -Guest Heart Thursday


Here is another graphite drawing from my sketchbook.  Of course, there are hearts around the neckline of one of these sisters.  I thought this to be perfect for today's Guest Heart Thursday.



Above you see my lovely models--and yes, they are sisters! 

Have a lovely day and Happy Guest Heart Thursday! For more heart art, photography and altogether fabulous heart stuff from around the world, visit Clytie at Random Hearts for Guest Heart Thursday.

She Wears a Heart -Guest Heart Thursday


This is a page from my sketchbook.  The scanner doesn't do it justice.  Nevertheless--there's a heart to be found.  Not just one obvious one, but another hidden.

Have a great weekend!
