Winter

It is official...Winter is here to stay for awhile! In Ohio we barely had any snow before Christmas but on December 26th, we started to get the lovely white stuff. I love snow...I think it is beautiful!

Here is some winter-inspired pictures:

Snowflakes!



These little still- lives in my kitchen remind me of winter. I just love white on white! I think it looks so clean and fresh!



Well I am off to run outside in the snow! Here is a song I will be listening to on my run:



Have a lovely day:)

4 Seasons Drawings

I hope everyone is having a great Saturday so far! Where I live it is snowy, cold and icy out! I am happily staying in the rest of the day and plan on drinking a LOT of hot chocolate!

I wanted to post some drawings completed by my Introduction to Art students. The assignment was to complete four drawings that represent each season (Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall.) Students were to use a viewfinder and look through magazines or personal photographs to find images for each season and draw with the following media: pencil, colored pencil, oil pastels and ink with watercolor. Here are some of their drawings:

Winter done in pencil




Spring done in watercolor and ink






Summer done in colored pencil

Tis the season....for more birds!



I have been working hard this weekend on some new collages/paintings for my etsy store. Here are a couple that will be going up today. All I need to do is photograph them and have the husband mat them (he is amazing at it!)and then post to etsy! I am going to keep working on some more art today and hopefully get at least two more done by the days end. We shall see!

I have also been working on that picture book for my niece that I posted about a couple days ago. Things are going well and I am really excited about it! I will have to post some pictures soon! Thanks for all of your sweet comments concerning the book...it keeps me going!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Christmas in October?








Just wanted to pop in and say hello! I have been so crazy busy with things lately, I have barely been able to get online! I just wanted to post some Holiday collages I just completed this weekend. They are up on my etsy site and hopefully will be Christmas cards also! It is weird to think Christmas is 2 months away! Where does the time go?!
