So far I've only drawn two snails. Four ladybugs, two snails. I had big plans, big plans. I was going to do four snails to go along with the amount of ladybugs. Then I got bored and wanted to do other things. Story of my creative life. I am really glad to be back into… Continue reading Snail #2
The First Snail
Hello! After all those little ladybug illustrations, I decided that I would like to try another little garden critter. There were a few I had in mind, and would maybe like to work on in the future, but for right now I settled on snails. Now, I do make an attempt to grow a vegetable… Continue reading The First Snail
Ladybugs
So, some how I got it into my head that I would like to try to draw a ladybug. Where exactly this came from, I have no idea. Sometimes I just go with it. I turned to my new favorite resource, Pixabay. This site is great, and I'm so happy that I found out about… Continue reading Ladybugs
Cupcake with blue frosting
It took me a ridiculously long time to finish this drawing. I don't know why. It really wasn't overly complicated or anything like that. It's not huge,the paper is only 9" x 12". I think what the problem was, was that I stopped and started it too many times, instead of just sitting down and… Continue reading Cupcake with blue frosting
Tiny Cupcakes
Who else has projects that didn't work out? I have fifteen of these tiny cupcakes. I have no idea what to do with them. I was going to make them into pins, or magnets. Then I went looking online, and I think there are a lot of them out there. Different than mine. More appealing… Continue reading Tiny Cupcakes
Painted Pendants
So I had a thought that I should do something a little different, yet stay true to my basic theme. I like how these turned out, but I don't know that I should do any more. My basic theme for my work is listed as "original art by Jennifer" because there is only so many… Continue reading Painted Pendants
Wildflower with Bees in Colored Pencil
So I recently got out my colored pencils. I am not actually sure what inspired me to do so, but I'm glad that I did. One of my favorite mediums has always been colored pencil. I am sitting here writing this, racking my brain trying to figure out what brought on my desire to use… Continue reading Wildflower with Bees in Colored Pencil
Thyme in Pebeo
Well, you know how I said I thought that I was going to do a whole series of herb paintings? About that.... I think this might be my last one for a bit. I'm not sure if I'm actually bored with them, or if I just want to do something different for awhile. I enjoyed… Continue reading Thyme in Pebeo
Thyme in Acrylic
I continued on my theme of herbs for my next two paintings. I'm not sure if I will keep it up or not, now. I thought I would make it into a whole series, but now I'm not so sure. Sometimes I get bored with the same thing over and over. Who knows, I may… Continue reading Thyme in Acrylic
Basil in Pebeo Paints
I made two paintings of the same subject. I wrote a previous post about my basil painting done in acrylics. (Read it here!) This post will be about this piece: Also, have a look here and see the listing on Etsy! When you work with these kinds of paints, they are very flowy. The intent… Continue reading Basil in Pebeo Paints
