hello
 
 
i've gotten back to my routine this week
which feels really good. my art routine at least. but
it's been two weeks since i've walked! hopefully that can
start again by Monday.
 
the girl i painted is in my small art journal
and only took me around three hours. i made her using
tombow markers and prisma color pencils. then doodled around her with a white posca pen.
the tombow markers and water make the most amazing watercolors. i just love how they dry, making their own textures. so pretty.
 
i painted Virginia's new shelves and finished knitting
the tiny blanket for her bed. i'm still deciding whether the floor should be wood or checkerboard.
 
my art room hasn't changed much. though i have started
a tablecloth and I really like having a white surface to work on.
 
yesterday I finished the fourth season of outlander!
whoa they have one stressful life!
watching all of those back to back is tiring
with all the flinching i do lol.
i would've run back to the stones and the future
no matter how much i loved Jamie! whew! 
 
loving: my peaceful non violent existence
 
waiting: to start a better man when i finish my current book
 
needing: a big glass of sweet tea
 
enjoying: the last days of summer

hello
 
looks as if i missed last month huh? i just got determined to finish painting my art room. i started it like two years ago! it was time. the reason i got back to it was i have been reading the dottie angel blog. i started at the beginning in 2007 and it's been so much fun! and so inspiring! because of her i have prettied up my laundry room and finished painting my art room. and i am so happy! now i am in the process of making it pretty, working clockwise around the room i will cover, paint, organize and hang stuff. and the good thing is i already own most of the stuff i need. i just found it all while moving things around. stashes of fabric, of buttons, of boxes, all kinds of cute stuff. i did get a fun garden fairy painting done, and work some on my tiny kitchen. got to spend some nice mornings outside at different places too. so i've just been busy, but now i'm back.
 
loving:  all the ideas in my head
 
wishing: I could make things faster
 
dreaming: of my finished art room
