Some art work from my students

I thought it might be fun to show you some of the art work done my kindergarten art students.  They will make these into necklaces next week. 

What I have been working on in my spare time

I had bought a few old magazines over the past 2 summers, I have been going through them lately and cutting out images to use in my future art work, here are a few of them.  I mostly use these in my personal journals.  I used to use them in ATCs, which I haven't done for serval years now.  I still love ATCs, I just have perfered to make larger art work at the moment.

Pen and Ink of a church

I draw buildings from time to time, this is one that I just finished of a local church, it will be a gift for a gentleman that is being promoted in this church.  So shhh, don't tell anyone.

Alphabet Dreamin'

I woke up one morning thinking about this drawing, I gues I'm thinking about going back to school soon.  I added doodles to all the letters and if you look real close you can find the names of family members hidden in around the letters.  I had a great time making this drawing, but my eyes were a little crossed by the end.  I hope you have fun looking for all the hidden pictures.

Swirls of Color

After such a long break in drawing, I felt like taking a more free flow approach to my drawing.  It feels so good to have some quiet time to myself again and to be able to just doodle. 

Finished Kitchen

The kitchen is 99% done, my husband only has to finish the trim around the cabinets and put the toe kick in and It will be complete.  I have to paint the ceiling and do some touch ups, but other than that it feels so good to be able to work in my kitchen again. And I Love all the new storage!

The plaster is sanded so the wall cabinet are UP!  It feels so good to have cabinets again.  Now for the base cabinets, counter tops, sink, micro wave, and painting...
Turns out that it was a good thing we took all the cabinets down, the old ones were hung up with 3 or 4 nails each other cabinet and they were starting droop on the wall.  We got the dry wall and plaster up last week, what a mess!
