Day 37 of 365

Today I made some jewelry for a gift. I'm trying to give all hand made- hand crafted gifts this year.

Day 33, 34, 35 and 36

I was having problems with my scanner, I got a little behind posting for this month.
All paintings are done with melted crayon technique.

Day 31 and 32 of 365

I was a little tired yesterday and I didn't post for Day 31. My muse is getting a little lazy. I've been using my random exercise.... I work on a background, then I try to find a realistic form or shape... I love this exercise because it makes my mind and hand work together. It's kind of like a box of chocolates. Both images were done with this exercise.

Day 29 and Day 30 of 365

For Day 29 I sketched an ATC and Day 30 I painted it. I'm better with female faces.

Day 28 of 365

Well, today I'm taking a little break! I still would like to share my art with you. I made this ATC a few months ago. It was one of my exercises of making a background page and within the abstract background to find a realistic shape. She is not a pretty lady but she shows a some kind of pain on her face... maybe mad... maybe sorrows...... not sure.

Day 27 of 365

ATC using prisma color pencils and markers....

Day 26 of 365

I'm finally done with my canvas her name is Lil Butterfly.

Day 25 of 365

A little poem , I incorporated with the painting.

Butterfly... little butterfly...

As you were fluttering around me

you made me look up to the sky,

you whispered in my ear,

and showed me

how to spread my wings and fly....

Day24 of 365

I've been working in stages, seems like I got a lot done the first day... now the details are taking a little more time. After flying around finally the butterfly landed on the canvas.

Day 23 of 365

It's all about the butterfly.... Keep following... she will be the focal point

Day 22 of 365

I worked on this piece until 2:00 AM, still WIP... she is in the cold garage at this moment with a coat of fixative because of the strong smell.

Day 21 of 365

Today I'm working on a canvas 18x24... working with large pieces almost impossible to get it done in one day! The challenge is to create an art habit. I may be working on this project for a while...

Day 20 of 365

More polymer clay angels... the bigger angel is about 3x2 inches and the small one is 2x1.25 inch
I call it Mama angel and baby. I had fun making them.

Day 19 of 365

Today I was playing with Polymer Clay... I was inspired to make a small angel.. no pattern, all hand made. One of the beads is also hand made. I think it would make a wonderful Christmas tree ornament.
