INSPIRED by the MUSICAL RENT!

This sketch from my journal was inspired by the song from the musical RENT.

I just loved the movie and the words from the song "Another Day"

Something New For Me

Good Morning. This weekend I had a blank piece of board on my easel and wanted to try something new. I love to draw faces and people and have been wanting to take a life drawing class. I never seem to have the time with everything else going on, kids, work, same as everyone else. When I thought, I have so many subjects in the house to draw. My daughter was only to eager to pose for me. This is what I ended up with last night. A collage of left over papers and magazine cutouts with a pose of my daughter in the middle. I am going to try and get my husband to pose next. Enjoy and stay tuned for more.

I Illustrated my First Childrens Book

Happy New Year everyone. I illustrated my first childrens book! Actually I did it as a Christmas present. My daughter wrote it and I drew the pictures. Its not published....yet.....well its a beginning to hopefully a new career I hope to pursue. Its a story about a giraffe and how he gets stuck in vines. I posted a few random pages from it. Enjoy!
