Up to speed...

Here are a few things I have been working on...  It's been crazy around here lately so I haven't been able to spend as much time as I have wanted to in the drawing department. 

 This is a painting that I did for my friend's daughter for Christmas.  It is about 24"x36" and done in the same colors as her room is painted with.  I had a blast doing it...

This is me just doodling...

My ZIA Garden

Here is my ZIA garden, free from weeds, screaming children, dirty laundry, and yucky toilets...

Oh how I wish I sit in the shade of a towering, lovely flower...

The Diva's Challenge # 30

Weekly Challenge #30: "String Theory v.V :Initialize"

The directions were to "draw your first and last initials, overlapping, and use this as the string for your tangles."  I had a lot of fun with this.  I think there may be a few more where this one came from.  Lots of possibilities!!!

Tripoli

Here is my Diva Challenge for this week.  The challenge was to work a pattern called Tripoli.  I started messing around with the triangle pattern with no particular direction in mind as usual, and this is what eventually came out.  I have my thoughts about it and my family has their thoughts, what is your thought?

A Lady...

Here is a picture that started with eyes and evolved into this mysterious looking lady.  I probably wouldn't have done much with it if my mom hadn't gone crazy over it when I started it...  She kept asking me if I had finished it and when I was going to be done.  So finally I was inspired to finish it and this is what came out.  It's been a long time since I drew a person, and I think this was the first time I drew someone out of my head instead of drawing from a photograph....

Some doodles and a gift

I've been busy doodling the last few months and this is what I came up with...

 My husband retired from the Air Force after 22 years of service in Explosive Ordinance Disposal (EOD) also know as the bomb squad in the civilian world.  I drew this picture and gave it to him as my retirement present.  Each picture represents every base he worked at during his career.  I also drew a picture of a bomb suit, his career badge, and his Senior Master Sargent stripes.
