Steps 1 and 2 of " She's Serious"

She's not finished. I am working on her a little bit every day.

Since my painting table is temporarily the space for my altar, I have been painting on my computer with "Painter". This started out as a sketch and then an outline in my sketchbook. I then scanned the outline and now I'm coloring it in Painter. It's fun and since I've already done this process with two other pieces - it's getting easier to manage the different applications I need to use so I may post the process in steps. I am pleased with this one so far.

"Gently Used"

Did this in Painter while the Toot had her afternoon nap. 

You just never know what's waiting to come out and onto paper or in this case a computer screen. I just have to keep at it and see what comes. Every little sketch and drawing counts. Practice is the tool and I can do it one day at a time. Even if it's at least a few minutes a day. 

Have you hugged your "Gently Used" relative or friend today? 

Blue Bird is going up on Etsy

I'm finally putting it up on Etsy. This is one of my favorite pieces that I've created in Painter. I want to keep posting new items to keep myself in the loop.
I'm getting tired and I need to get to bed. Tomorrow we'll be feasting on some spicy chili and Chipotle dip with bread and chips. I don't know a thing about football and I have no desire to learn anything about it. The Gorilla does like it and I want him to have some good eats while he watches the Super Bowl. Have a great Sunday!
