Amphibian Alert

A Boy and a Tree

Here is a watercolor painting from 2006 that I painted it for my then boyfriend , now husband.  This little painting has been on the wall of his cube since I gave it to him.

May 2006, watercolor, 4×6

I Hope I Feel Better Tomorrow

Bouncy Balls, a Girl, and a Bird

It sounds like a classic fairytale, doesn’t it? Well, maybe not, but here it is:

At first this girl was going to be sad and looking at her hand, but when I drew her mouth it looked like more of a smile. The rest of the scene naturally followed.

Weeds and Cement

The two just go better together, don’t you agree?

Squirrel, 1981

While I was going through my Grandma’s photo albums, I found this picture:

At first I thought this was just a picture of my Grandparent’s apple tree, but then I noticed that something was circled in the tree. Was it a squirrel?

My Grandma labeled almost every photo she ever put in an album, so I flipped the picture over and read my Grandma’s words: #15 Squirrel Feb 1981  Back Yard.

Now I present my drawing of this photo:

Laugh, Kookaburra! Laugh, Kookaburra!

Still Working On This One…

I posted this work in progress back in April and although I have added color, I am still not sure about it…

Maybe I should have left the room white?

Also toying with the idea of adding a second window to the scene. Maybe this is where the bird lands?

If anyone has any suggestions, I would be happy to hear them!

My Name is Turtle

is what the kitten in my dream would have said if it could have spoken…
