Happy Friday! I can't believe how quickly this week has gone by - our spring break is almost half over! Here are a few selections for the week:

It's been awhile since I posted some daily drawings. Here are just a few. While they are not always daily, when I was scanning them in tonight, I realized that they were pretty close. And that I need to buy a new sketchbook. I have missed a few days lately, but I've had terribly stuffed up sinuses lately, and it's been so hard t concentrate. I hate that feeling, when you're walking in a fog. I always have a list going in my head of a million things to do, projects to work on, drawings to do, and I hate when I'm forced into idle time. Thank goodness the stacks of drawings of medicine bottles and thermometers seems to be over.

A few more daily drawings. Okay, I admit they are not exactly daily - I've missed a few here and there, but pretty close. I look forward to creating these little snippets of my life each day. My schedule has not allowed for any time with paint in the last four weeks, but by restricting myself to just a black pen and a small square, I've been able to find 10 minutes a day. Usually. I am actually finding myself reaching for a pen more often then a pencil now - fancy that!

The Word For The Year class is beginning on Monday! Be sure to check back here for the first post, and if you haven't already done so, leave a comment on this post for a chance to win a class kit!

I'm getting so excited about what's in store on Lavender Sky Studio! I can't wait to share more about it, but that will have to wait for at least a few more days...

I am keeping up pretty well in the Daily Drawing department. Some are good, some not, but it's the routine. Here are a few recent ones.







Madeline, my fever girl, is down with one again. Max is still on the tail end of his cold. How do you keep one child from catching what the other has? I sure haven't found a way yet. Quite possibly, because they won't stay away from each other, even when they are sick. I guess I shouldn't complain about that one. We are so fortunate that they are the best of friends.

I will leave you with one last image. As I mentioned in the previous post, I'm trying to make exercising a more creative endeavor. This is a picture from a walk on a foggy morning, taken with my iPhone. I can't believe how good the camera is on that thing!

So here is the first batch of daily drawings. Some better than others, but it's been a doable task so far.  As for the Dance Dance Revolution I mentioned in a previous post, well, maybe I won't be working out to that so much. I did just fine with the DJ tutorial, but they seduce you into this sense of accomplishment and then BAM! the real song starts. And then little people aren't on the dance pad anymore. And the DJ doesn't call out the steps. And those direction arrows come a lot faster, and you're trying to follow the dancers on the screen, and once second later, you're booed off and the game is over. Thank you Dance Dance Revolution, for crushing any dreams of dancing I may of had, and making me feel really, really old (although the kids thought it was HILARIOUS!)
