And more drawing challenge...

Liz, Mike, Will

This is the next selection of 5 drawings from my 30 day drawing challenge.  My accomplishments have been many but none have made more of an impact than becoming a mother to three beautiful children.  Ask any mother where they take pride and most will say, "With my kids."

Doodle

One of the 30 days was just a doodle day so I created the drawing above.  It kind of reminded me of a flower or plant when I finished it.  I tend to draw more organic shapes than geometric shapes.

The Walking Dead

I wouldn't say that I'm a huge fan of "The Walking Dead," but I do enjoy watching the show.  The real reason for me drawing this picture on favorite-tv-show day was an excuse to try my hand at drawing zombies.  Again, I wanted to play around with lettering.

Heros, RRR, Stache

I had to create a comic one day and even though I taught my students how to do storyboards, comics, and animation; I never really sat and drew my own.  I struggled with this and came up with the above.  I think it would look neat as CGI.

Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

I was stuck for my favorite movie so I just went for my favorite movie title.  I thought that walking jeans would look interesting as a drawing.  Behold.  The above is my final product.

More of the 30 Day Drawing Challenge.

Favorite Animated Character

When Beauty and Beast was released by Walt Disney Studios, I absolutely loved Belle.  She was a book worm, tender hearted, and gorgeous woman who got her prince in the end.  She was able to look past a person's appearance to find his or her good nature and I could see myself being friends with her.

Favorite Candy

 I can't help but like Almond Joy.  If I get a bag of the minis, I indulge and that isn't good for anyone's waistline.

Favorite Fairy Tale

I couldn't think of any fairy tale the day this challenge came so I drew the glass slipper from Cinderella.  I like the fairy tale but can't say that it's my favorite at the moment.

Family Portrait

 I wanted to create more a representation of my family instead of a realistic portrait.  I like the design of the lettering.

Favorite Plant

My grandmother's favorite flower was the ditch lily and an aunt of mine told me this after I got married.  I designed our invitation with a tiger lily and my bouquet had tiger lilies.  The vibrant colors were so attractive to me and I am in awe that I share this with my grandmother, a woman I barely knew.

Finally some drawings scanned...

My Favorite Animal

I finished up my 30 day art challenge and have started a new one.  I would post all of the pictures of that challenge in this post but felt that would be overwhelming to scroll down through all of the art.

The top one is my favorite animal.  I would prefer never to own a fish in my life for I killed one in college and cried over it even though it lasted one day.  Never give a pet to someone without consulting with them.  One of my friends had this goldfish he won at a carnival that was about half a foot.  I thought the thing was beautiful and graceful.  As a little girl, I watched my uncle's fish and felt the same way.  I associate with fish in the sense that they are graceful when they swim and seem light, fluid, and uninhibited.

My Favorite Book

I wouldn't say that this is my absolute favorite book but it is a book I like and I love the words.  The overall theme that I received from this book is to take a chance.  I'm currently heading into a year without a job other than being a full-time mom and I'm taking control of the situation with some of my dreams.

My Best Friend

I hurt my best friend from college and haven't talked to her in two years.  I've attempted to reach out to her at least five times and have not heard back from her.  I wish she knew that I was there for her if she needed me to be.

My Favorite Food

I'm in love with junk food but love how fruits look drawn up.  Sometimes I pass on chocolate for the exotic flavor of a banana or the sweet flavor of an orange.

My Favorite Place

This is an aerial view of my in-law's boathouse.  Jumping off the dock into 10 to 16 feet deep water does unnerve me; however, watching the amount of enjoyment my kids have here eases the fear enough for me to have a good time.  Plus, I love jetting across the water on a jet ski or in a boat.

I was inspired to create a 30 day challenge. I haven't done this myself but intend to when I'm done with the art challenge I am working on.  This is intended to be interpreted however the artist sees fit; maybe through crafts, photography, or drawing.  Enjoy.

POD

make custom gifts at Zazzle

I'm trying some POD sites.  This seems like a neat way to get my artwork to the public since I can't be my own best collector.  Check it out.
