Sun Spots - July

I just finished this drawing today.  I really like the contrast between the black and white. It's been crazy around here with school projects, doctors appt... It feels good to have it done, now to find the time to work on a new one.

Summer Sun - June

this is the finished drawing of Summer Sun. 

unfinished - Summer Sun

This is an unfinished print of my June's drawing.  I thought that it would be fun to just post a look at one of my drawings in progress.

April Showers Bring May Flowers -- April #2

This is my second drawing for April in my calendar series. I like the size, the added flowers and vines.  I might try to expand this idea in another drawing, now to just find the time to draw...

Stained Glass Window - April #1

My idea was to make some kind of cloud and rain drops to represent April (April Showers, bring May flowers).  When the drawing was complete I decided I wanted more of a free form and fewer straight lines, so I drew another cloud and rain drop picture.

Patterns of thy Flower - April

This is April drawing, some of my favorite flowers to see after a cold and snowy winter are the tulips and daffadils.  The little white flower are my interpertation of a flower from Chile called Rock Purslane, I found it in a flower book I had inherited and thought it was a happy flower.

Irish Spring Tree - (March)

My daughter helped me to name this drawing too.  What do you think of my little clover flower/pineapples?  I had a lot of fun working on this drawing, clovers always remind me of summer and making those long clover chains and crowns of flowers. 

Hidden Hearts - (February)

This is the second drawing from my idea of a drawing representing each month of the year.  While I was drawing this particular picture I was listening to Stephen Kings Movie "Tommy Knockers", every time I look at it I think about that movie.  Anyone else out there do the same thing - remember what you were listening to when you were working on a certain piece?

Soul of a Snowflake - (January)

This is where my Preschool teacher training came in a little bit. I needed a theme to continue getting new ideas for my ink drawings, so I snitched a lesson plan idea and I started creating a drawing for each month of the year - this one is for January.
