Summer Fun



 A friend of mine asked me to draw her son as a superhero for his birthday. Brooks just turned five and he is adorable. It was a lot of fun to just mess around with this. It was nice to be able to just play around and draw whatever I wanted. I need to do that more often. Flex my creative muscles and just play a bit. I hope you are enjoying your summer. It's a beautiful sunny day here and I'm getting ready to go for a swim :)

IF Power and What I've been up to...

Well, I've been quiet again. This is why. I have been working on two book projects. This one is finished and will be available on Amazon soon. It's the first of a series. I am also working on an alphabet book but can't post anything I've done for it yet. It's been a really busy summer. My son turned 18 today and my grandson started kindergarten this week. Wow, time really flies.
I think I wish it would slow down a little ;)

I decided this would work for Illustration Friday's prompt Power, because it's about the power of determination. In the story, Nola is determined to find a coin at that beach. It was a lot of fun to illustrate this story and I can't wait to get started on the next one. I hope everyone had a great summer!

IF_Train

Did you know you could train a cat to follow you around? Well, Izzy did. She trained her kitten to follow her everywhere she went. It might have had something to do with the rabbit pull toy. 

I finally found time to post a little something. I can't remember the last time I did Illustration Friday. It's been awhile since I've posted anything. I'll have to get myself back into the blogging habit. I've been trying to stop by everyone's blogs, not as often as I'd like to, but whenever I have a few minutes. I hope you are all well. I've been busy working on a few jobs plus my son and I are trying to finish up the school year. He's a junior now. One more year! I can't believe he's seventeen. Soon I'll have to find something else to keep my brain young. ;)

Snow Penguins

Well, I finally finished the penguins. Now that my internet is working properly again, well, mostly properly again, I can post it :)

IF Sky


Instead of singing "rain, rain go away",  Lizzy and Arabella wanted it to keep falling from the sky. Playing in puddles is just too much fun :D 

My son's favorite days are rainy days. I love the rain too, as long as I don't have to drive in it, and as long as it doesn't last for days on end, because my yard becomes a small pond when it does. ;)

Illustration Friday's prompt this week is sky. I've been having a bit of a dry-spell with personal work. I have started illustrations for the IF prompts for the past three or four weeks without finishing one or even posting a sketch,  so, this is a carry over from water.

Yay, I finished it. Now I need to go back and do the other ones that I started...
