MORE CHALLENGES... 
February 13, 2012 

 "Love...from my heart to yours!"
The sweet masked girl above was inspired by the blog challenge groups, CRAZY AMIGOS and THINK MONDAY-THINK ATC...their task today was to create a heart-themed piece.
TAKE A WORD wanted us to take a stroll down the old-fashioned lane... I strolled three times!!
COLLAGE OBSESSION was obsessed with sports this week...
I'm especially attached to the above piece as it's all about my super sporty grandson...need I say how proud I am of him?
INSPIRATION AVENUE was all about THE DIVA this week...my DIVA is a French model...La Diva...
THREE MUSES issued a real challenge this week... the theme is BIRDS, but part of our piece had to have a bit of it outside the frame...
Finally, on PAPER TRADERS ART BLOG, a nostalgic theme of  LACE inspired me to create this...


I really appreciate your stopping by...I realize that viewing someone else's art isn't everyone's cup of tea, so a BIG THANK YOU! I sooo appreciate your encouragement!

Hugs...'til the next,

FAMILY-THEMED ART

ART ONLY... 
August 24, 2011  

"Remembering the past... future bright ahead!"
It seems the closer twilight gets, the more important sunsets become... remembering people as well as experiences,  special occasions and milestones...while continuing to make new memories. Not surprising that my most meaningful memories involve my family and dear friends. This posting reflects that feeling...the importance of family! As I answered a variety of  blog challenges, FAMILY is what my muse seemed to want to see.  So...
8 year old HUNTER is a sports superstar... and
almost 7 year old Lilly's forte is art and language. Both she and Hunter are in a French immersion school and are becoming bilingual children. Needless to say, both their Papa and their Doodleloo (me) are very proud of them...they help to make our growing older more fun!

COLLAGE OBSESSION was all about ROOTS this week...a look at generations: my dear Nana, my Mom, our daughter and me...4 generations...


SUNDAY POSTCARD ART wanted to see some Leonardo DaVinci-inspired art...I chose his study of embryos and used a photo of our 1st born grandchild, Hunter (just a week old in this photo) as part of the study...

TAKE A WORD was thinking "Old Fashioned"...so was I, when I played with this old photo of my Dad and my Aunt...both gone now...my aunt passing away a couple of years ago at the ripe old age of 101!
Finally, a happy piece, having nothing to do with "family"...  INSPIRATION AVENUE asked for  SUNFLOWERS... I love the HUGE blooms! What a lovely stopover for this seemingly small robin...like a shag carpet for its feet!


Thanks again for stopping in, dear family and friends... I hope to see you for the next posting...

xox,
