The Happiest Business

This is my response to the Watermelon Ice prompt from Summer of Colour...

Yearn

This was my Summer of Color Piece for of all things, the flavor BASEBALL NUT.  Apparently that flavour is a combination of raspberry and cashews.

The richness of the two colours lend themselves lovely to a vintage image...

Wild n' Reckless

This is my piece that I did for the Wild n' Reckless Summer of Color Post.  I hope you like it!  I just love the colours that I got to use in this one, and plan to use them more in the future!

I have been making friends with my art journal again.  This is a page that I created last night with my watercolour pencils and a micron - now it is just waiting for some stories.

This is my second entry for the Summer of Color 2:
Ice Cream Inspirations.  This piece was inspired by one of my favourite flavours:  Mint Chocolate Chip.

I thought that for this piece, I would feature something that I always love to letter:  Beatles Lyrics.  I hope you like it!

This is my first entry for the Summer of Color 2:

Rainbow Sherbert!

Valentines 2012

I admit that it has been a LONG time since I have added anything to my blog.  Thank you to all of you have stuck with me through my dry spell! 

The truth is that I have been creating, although not as much as I would like to.  The soul-feeding and the self-care took a bit of a hiatus over the last couple of months, but I am back on track, and taking care of what my soul needs of me, which means that I should have more to share with you in the months to come.  So to start, here are some Valentines that I created for 2012.  I am still loving collage, although I want to add some more of my own drawings and lettering to the cards in the future.  What do you think?  Stay tuned!
