It is lovely to go outside and pick things to bring inside and draw. Even in winter there are a few awesome things to see! This is a quick sketch in my journal, colored with watercolor.

Gelli Print Cards
These gelli prints were done on some paste paper I made years ago. The paper was sitting, like many paper experiments, in my studio/office awaiting inspiration. These prints can now go into the world with my love.
Those trees are showing up again. I might as well give away all of my rubber stamps except for this tree. LOL

Hope is the Thing and Rethinking Journals (again)
Here's another completed journal page inspired by Joanne Sharpe's "Draw Your Awesome Year 2014" class. I'm loving the class but I think I'd be happier with this page as three separate pages in a smaller journal.
This vignette was inspired by a book I finished recently: Creative Lettering: Techniques and Tips from Top Artists, compiled by Jenny Doh.

Finishing UFOs
Last week I joined some lovely ladies at our church for a UFO group meeting. No, this did not involve viewings of Unidentified Flying Objects, but rather the completion of UnFinished Objects. All crafters have them, you know you do.
I finished about a dozen bookmarks penned with the words from my favorite Linnea Good hymn: Make a Joyful Noise, based on Psalm 100.

Monthly Grids
Joanne Sharpe has us doing grids to document our daily lives, in her class, Draw Your Awesome Year 2014. In January we drew little pictures in each square. In February we have hearts!
I love these organic shapes:

The Photo
In this lesson, Joanne Sharpe talked about using a lightbox to draw from photos. Such fun!
