I make things, take too many pictures, and post them here.

New book

I made it about halfway through the B&N birdie sketchbook I was whining about in a previous post. I decided I had enough of it for now and bought a new book on Thursday. They didn't have the 7x10 Strathmore drawing (only sketch), so I had to get the 7x10 Canson drawing - I don't like it quite as much because the spiral is way bigger - but it'll do just fine.

So of course it needed stickering, and I was already thinking about laser guns..

It's very hard to take pictures of holographic stickers! Sorry they are blurry. It's raining so the light is kind of icky.

And here is an in progress picture of my completely unplanned pink.. thing.

Oh dear, it is a mess. Maybe it'll be better once the lasers come in :)

We have returned from The Europe

Oh, dear blog.

Bill and I went on our fabulous First Transatlantic Trip Ever. I decided not to chance airline crapola regarding scissors and such, and only brought a tiny sketchbook, my travel watercolors, and four pens. I managed to fill up 25 pages of it with records of our meals, places we went, little drawings, etc.

Here is our photo recap. Not quite everything, but most things! It includes some of the drawings.


I impulsively started sewing something bright pink and weird last night - I might send it off to a breast cancer charity art show. I started making it and then, appropriately, Legally Blonde came on. Haha. We'll see how this goes. It will probably involve laser guns again. I am not kidding.
