Randomness today.
I did a quick watercolor portrait of my friend Cheryl. She was crafting and not paying attention, so it was a stealthy act. I kept peeking at her out of the corner of my eye. I'm sure she thought I was creepy and crazy!
The painting is not quite right. Definitely more sour looking than she is, but I'm just mucking around trying to get it figured out.
I made a fun canvas yesterday:
It's quite large. Probably one of the biggest I've ever made at 16×20. Here are some of the details:
I'm also in the midst of working on a new little journal. I've been experimenting with some new ideas and techniques:
Feeling a little stressed too. (Okay, a little very extremely stressed.) I've got a lot of things going on right now and there are still only twenty-four hours in the day. I'm really annoyed that I need to sleep! Wouldn't I be so much more productive if I didn't have to sleep?! Sigh. A girl can dream (though not if she doesn't sleep). If anyone has a great solution for getting more done in less time, let me know, okay?
Thanks for stopping by!
Ahh – Cheryl – looks good in watercolor – say hi to her from me when you see her next time 🙂
Love all the painting – makes me happy to look at!

I like you experimenting, your work is inspiring, but I lack some courage, probably.
But more than courage I lack time. (That probably doesn’t sound very English, sorry.) Anyway, if you find out how to cram more hours in one day, blog about it, because I desperately need more hours. My work is taking to many away from me!
True, sleeping is overrated, but still 😉

Can’t help with adding more hours to your day, but that canvas is wonderful! And hope the stress gets reduced as you complete projects (you always get them done).

So love that album! I just finished a couple mini books using the tutorial you put up last week. I’m really loving mini books more and more and scrapbook pages less and less. I’m not sure why but between you and Christine Clouse I’m thoroughly inspired!

You are so amazing. As I was looking at some of your work, I was wondering if you ever sleep. All I had to do was read a little further to find the answer. I too have felt why sleep when I could get something done. The answer is that without sleep we shall get nothing done. Our bodies will fall apart and just be a heap on the floor. Try scrapping or getting any inspiration from that.
All that said I love your work and attitude. Wish I could find the time to do even a quarter of what you do.
