    Yes! Actually the fashion did work and Phineas did his business! 😉 Maybe he just needed fashion in the end. It’s soooo cold here now… we always get a week or so like this every winter. We’re all just cuddled up indoors as much as possible. And a Panda sounds fun! I’ll have to try one in my new character style! 😃💕

    I’m dropping in again for the prompt of “Kingfisher” today, with a little doodle of one. I’ve sketched these birds very realistically before, so I thought I’d try something a bit different. I’ve been practicing

      Charlie, I love seeing your postings and Doodles every day. You have so much to offer and it gives me a chance to ideas when I don’t find my own inspiration.

      I can’t wait until your book is done – it is going to be so fantastic! Dogs are so funny about their feet. My mastiffs hated getting them wet, but then, despite loving being dried off with a towel, they’d fight having their feet dried as well. They must get these odd quirks from humans – the only animal that’s quirkier!

      Sounds like you’re working hard and having fun! Can’t complain about that combination…especially if treats are sometimes involved! Look forward to meeting the new characters in your book!!

      Lovely Kingfisher Charlie! I am a little daunted but I should try🤷‍♀️ I can hardly wait for the first new book-I was thinking about signed copies and I also happened on a website that will turn your drawing into a plush toy! Hmmmm🤔 My creative- marketing- fundraising head spins-but then I remember I have to get back to my own projects 😄😁😆( But it is just so much fun to daydream about where I could go!)

      Your work is beautiful and lively, Lisa! I was moved by your video about your Mom’s underwear, having lost my own a year ago. I’m now wearing many of her outfits for the same reason – we did most of our clothes shopping together and she kept hers immaculate. Another skill lost in time! Thank you for sharing your artistic journey with us.

      Lisa, your soft-edge color application adds an ethereal aspect to your work, many of the paintings on the website are great for meditation. One can just float off like in a dream! But the humorous drawings are really funny!
      Good stuff!

Yep… I’m enjoying every moment of the current process, but it really does feel like starting over and going to school some days! Which is equally fun because I’m a bit nerd who’s always adored school! 😉lol

    Thanks so much, Lori! 😃💕 Yes! Yay! It’s so fun to just make up characters. Unfortunately, for a book, after you make they then you DO have to compare and try to get them to look like the same character each time. That part… ugh… still chugging along and practicing to make that happen. Right now, 4 out of 5 of my mouse poses for my book looked…[Read more]
