Illustration Friday – Lonely

I used to get a little lonely when I rode the light rail, so I figured this little guy would get lonely at the bus stop.  Hope it doesn’t take too long to arrive.

This is my attempt for the theme of Lonely for Illustration Friday and it is also an entry for 52 Designs.  Now available in my shop.

This is the 25th print in my shop!  My friend Christie gave me the best tip for loosening up.  Now before every painting I am painting horizontal lines, vertical lines and numbers all over my cheapo watercolor paper.  This is so helpful because even if you think you don’t need to warm up, you do.  Every time.

I love learning more and more about this medium.  It can be tricky but I enjoy how the colors melt into each other and how you can’t plan everything.  There is a little bit of surrendering that is involved and it’s nice.

Summertime has me thinking about refreshing fruit like raspberries and tangerines.

These are two new bird prints now available in my shop. Hope you having fun in the sun!!

Had a friend over today so that gave me even more of a reason to straighten up and get my shop updated with new prints.  Friends always tend to give you just the right push at just the right time.  So, the shop is back open and there are three new pieces: Russian Owl, Chevron and Punk Rock.

Baby girl is calling me, have to go for now.  Hope you have a fantastic weekend!

It’s Leap Year with An Owl and Ducks.

Owl and Bird Watercolor Print

Ducks in a Row Watercolor Print

I have been silent but painting.  Both prints have been added to my shop.  So yay for that.  I think I love Fabriano paper much more than Arches.  Of course I would choose that one because it s harder to find around these parts.  That’s how I roll.

What I want to do and how I feel are on two completely different sides of the spectrum.  I want to be all adventurous and just take another impromptu trip that involves an airplane.  But yea right, I am officially in my third trimester and I go to bed by 8:30 p.m. at the latest.  I am a wild child.  ;)

How are you doing on this lovely leap year day?
