Introducing...Squid Bird

Looks like a squid, but is really a bird!

A few winter mornings...

I used some overlays from the Digital Scrapbook Place to enhance the photos. In away it is sort of funny because it is very popular to take, or "enhance" photos to look old or even better, to look like badly taken pictures. Oh, all those years of trying to help people take better snapshots!
Anyway, it's a lot of fun.

New watercolors....

A few weeks ago I did a multitude of little (about 2x3 inch) watercolors of birds and flowers. Here is a sampling...

The originals are available for purchase, in my Etsy shop and I am thinking of using the images for note cards or other projects.
Enjoy!

A Cold Winter Morning...

Full Moon and windy weather...

Arts & Crafts Fair

Last week, at the Library, we had an Arts & Crafts Fair. This is only the second year we've done this so it is a small affair for now. Here is my friend's jewelry along with my art work.

Calligraphy...

Small note books made from old gift cards along with snowflakes made with packing material and a punch...

Felt checkbook covers and coin purses...

Quilted pot holders, coasters and wall hangings.

Waiting for the morning bus...

For the last 13 years I was walking to work...now I take the bus, so I'm spending a lot of time waiting...for the bus. This is the corner of Main and Chicago.
