I am on a roll as far as working in my sketchbook, and this time I actually remembered to take a “before” photo, so introducing a behinds the scenes look at what exactly went into creating this sweet Moroccan style garden scene. I think you’ll be quite surprised to see the evolution, which you can see if you keep on reading.

The truth is, that I love creating in such a way that…

Mixed Media Lilacs Blooming In My Sketchbook!
Lilacs are blooming in my sketchbook, because in general I’ve been trying to fill the pages, and now, with my new instagram account, right here, (please follow me!) I’ve decided to do a few February challenges to help me create content and get my account noticed, hopefully. It has been a while since I’ve painted flowers, so the #28FebruaryFlowers challenge is going to be well, quite honestly, a challenge! If I miss a day, or need to do something really simple I will give myself a break, as I’m also hoping to participate in #28FeatheredFriends, which is yes, a bird challenge! So, over the next month, in addition to Purim…

Milk Carton Houses With Graffiti Hearts!
I really can’t count the times I’ve planned to make milk carton houses, nor how many milk cartons I have packed away in the basement for those dream projects, but I can report to have taken one tiny step forward with these milk carton heart graffiti wall houses! I realize it sounds like I’ve never made milk carton houses, silly me, I certainly have, twice, milk carton house planter, and doodled millk carton houses. I’ve been all about hearts lately, and while the hearts I’ve been painting haven’t exactly been graffiti hearts, lets just pretend they are, and certainly when painted on a milk carton house they can be!
