Spring Time Drawing......

So I went back to the pencil and starting doing some drawing again. I decided to draw a Cow Elk and her Calf. Since Spring is here I know that all the Deer and Elk are having their little ones. I just love this time of year.

Well, I turned 33 years old on the 12th and I'm having a bit of a hard time with it. I'm noticing more grey hair and wrinkles. So as I am drawing this piece I was noticing I was having a hard time focusing. I already wear contacts and I think that my eyes are not going to get any worse.... wrong! So in the middle of this drawing I told my husband " I think I'm going to have to go get some "readers" ( you know the ones that the older people where to read the newspaper). I just couldn't believe that I would have to go buy a pair of those!! Needless to say they worked great!! Even though my 4 year old daughter tells me I look like Papa!

I just put 2 Original ACEO Cards up on Auction today. Thought I would play around in Graphite this week. I did start the week with watercolor paper but I just got frustrated so I decided to go with some Pencil Work. It's like the basics for me. It's almost like my center point in my artwork.
So Listing #1 is an Eye Study of a Horse. I just love doing these Eye Studies and the other listing is of an Arabain. The Arabians are always a fun breed for me to draw.
ENJOY!

The First Blog....

Well, I have decided to start my own blog. I'm now an official Blogger. :-)

I have created this blog so if you would like to stay-up-to-date on my art you can. My goal for this year to to keep my clients and followers informed. I will be posting all my new work on here, whether it be an ACEO Card or a Large Scale Painting, or it could even be a Commissioned Portrait.

I'm gearing up for the 74th Annual St. Paul Rodeo in July. I have been trying to get new work out their, but I have been busy with my kids and taking a bit of a break. I told myself in April I was going to get back into the swing of things and start getting my creative mind back on track. A bit hard with the whole family being sick with the nasty flu bug.

I really hope everyone enjoys this as much as I will. I'm always looking for feedback so don't hesitate to post a comment. I would love to here back from you.
