Cooper's birthday card. Watercolor and ink.

Yeah, I have been doing more stuff this just this this week, but this is all I managed to photograph. I signed up to do the 21.5.800 challenge which is 21 days of 800 words of writing a day and yoga five times a week. It is awkward to explain, but it has been good to focus on writing and movement. Right now, I have more to write about than time. I always want to write. Always. And I could always sit down and write.I bought a pre-stretched canvas that is four feet by two feet. After all the little ATCs (which I am totally addicted to), I am intimidated by the large canvas. I am planning in my head. And very excited about it.

The finished Artist Trading Cards.

For some reason, I felt compelled to paint this little horrified person. I love her. I don't know why. She is also ATC size, and painted in acrylic. I also bought a buttload of origami paper yesterday, so I am having fun with that.

Beezus and I went to the craft store today and got our art on. It was fun. She has two paintbrushes and two glitter glue sticks, and is using bits of origami paper willy nilly.

As I took pictures of her, she declared she was done, stood up and begged for the camera for her artwork photos. I love how each paint color gets its own brush.


































We have an art room, but somehow we have been ending up on the kitchen table again. Perhaps because Thor is sleeping on his swing there and we can listen to the Barber of Seville while we paint in the dining room. We do love opera. Oh, and here is the some of the work I did today.
