Apologies to those commenting in other languages...

I have been getting several comments sent to me in languages that I can't read.  Unfortunately, in the past I had gotten some that looked like they were in Chinese and it turned out they had offensive (sexual) content throughout.  Therefore, I do not approve comments that I cannot read.

If anyone can explain to me how I can post a translation, then I would be happy to do so.  Until then, I'm playing it safe and rejecting comments that are in other languages.  Sorry!

Blessings

Illustration Friday: "Equipment"



If you want to successfully steal the cheese, a mouse must have the right equipment.  Now, are there supposed to be extra parts?

Illustration Friday: "Fearless"


The Gingerbread Man was fearless…not necessarily smart.

This is kind of a 2-part post. I had playing around with this fox-like drawing when this theme came up. It immediately made me think of the gingerbread doodle in my sketchbook. However, I’m not really liking the fox and I don’t really have the time to redo them together at the moment.

The Gingerbread Man is kind of a special doodle for me. It was done on a train home from Oregon. It was my first attempt getting back into drawing several years. College had left me more frustrated and directionless, and I had done a lot of creative things, but I had set aside drawing and painting. So, this was my moment of saying “I’m just going to draw for FUN and let whatever happens happen.” It started me in a whole new direction and inspired me to consider illustration.
