Drawing from observation
Drawing is sooo hard for me.
Every class kicks my butt.
I keep repeating the mantras from class: “Good drawing change and bad drawings stay the same.”
Using SCREAMING lines, TalKinG lines and light whisper lines.
I know it’s out of proportion. I’m working on that. Negative space and shapes.
Step by step.
I’m better than I was.
Can you tell I first drew six toes? “Good drawings change…” 😉

“I saw my new elephant carry little red dogs under rainbows.”

Over and over.

Need a good way to remember all 11 systems of the human body. I know them all — always seem to forget one when listing them.

AI came up with this: “I saw my new elephant carry little red dogs under rainbows.”

It’s a good one. Now I need to simply remember all the words in the sentence. Otherwise I’m back to my earlier issue. 🤪

And in case anyone is curious:

Integumentary
Skeletal
Muscular
Nervous
Endocrine
Circulatory
Lymphatic
Respiratory
Digestive — oops. Forgot this one!
Urinary
Reproductive

How’d I do?

Taken on a bike ride with my pup. My kids are really pushing me to exercise and lift heavy. It’s a must. Need to do it.
Glad to be able to exercise with such a nice view. 💕

I have one of these. I love it. Then I saw that these are available to make in kits. A little child inside of me wants to do this sooo bad with friends. Or as a class. Or teach a class… So many options. So many things I want to do…
One day at a time. ❤️

I keep forgetting how I have to post on ALL the platforms. All the spaces. In order to build up anything, you need to consistently post… okay, here we go…
And please tell me what you think of this one.
It’s for a private crafting party coming up soon. We will be using heat pens. Pyrography. It’s challenging. It’s unique. It’s sooo very rewarding.

I intend to start up a new business called “Your Extra Support”

This includes your extra business support, your extra marketing support, your extra anything support.

I look forward to where this goes!

I’m here tonight to support Nadia Hoballah and her night at A Court of Art & Starlight.
I was going to have a booth, my oldest was going to do henna, my middle was going to take photographs, my youngest was going to enjoy everything. Plans slightly changed (well, drastically) so picked up pho for one kid then pulled up my Renaissance boot straps and came out to support Nadia. She’s done an amazing job putting all of this together. I’ve only been able to get photos of the outside so far. She has some surprises waiting on the inside. I can’t wait to capture the moments for her.

Come one down. Hope to see you here.
💕

Here’s a self-portrait photograph I took about 30 years ago — back when we used film cameras. The settings, the circumstances, everything about that moment was different from today. The full story will come out soon enough.
A dear friend at the time, David, took the original 4x6 print and then printed it onto canvas using his inkjet printer. He gifted it to me. He lived down the hall from me on the 6th floor, where I took this photo around 11:00 p.m. I’m not even sure if my roommates were home yet.
David is no longer with us. I would have loved to talk photography with him again. Our time with friends feels far too short.
(Please excuse the reflection in the glass. I notice waaay too late that my phone can be seen. I hope to take another photo of this photo soon...)
