WEEK 4 OR ART..........Be Kind

Well I did it and made it through my first month doing and illustration a week. This week I did another piece for my color book project BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS and this piece is entitled "kindness" now the crazy thing is I feel that this is something that you just dont see enough of in this day and age and if we can do justone kind thing for someone each day that would be awesome. So hers is what I propose if we do something kind perhaps it will become contageaous and everyone we are kind to will pass it on. Or maybe share kindness by sharing something beautiful that you created.
Thank you for following my year of art because of you I am driven to illustrate each week.

Week Three of a year in art.....Finding your joy

This is the next illustration in my new color book BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS. This piece is called finding joy which I think is a very important thing to do in life. What ever makes you happy, or creates joy for you I say reach for it and embrace it. I have to admit that I had lost my way for the years before this one and the path lead me further and further from my art path. This year with each piece I draw I am finding myself......my joy.....and my happiness.

Thank you for coming along for the ride.

Week Two of a year of art.......Winds of Spring

This sketch has inspired a new collection entitled Lotus Blossoms it will be an 8 piece set of illustrations with an asian inspiration. As alot of you all know I love to incorporate movement into my works as well as flowing fabrics and hair so this set will be no different but will help me tell a story of renewal and blooming!

The title of this piece is Winds of Spring.

As I said I will showcase mainly sketches this year but if I finish a piece I will pop in and show it as well. Please let me know what you all think!

Week Number One of the Year of Art Challenge

So that whole idea that I would not finish a piece flew right out the window and I was inspired to ink in the image I created this week. I thought I would like to go back to creating coloring books being I have had a number of buyers from the past contact me regarding this. So this is the 4th piece in my Beautiful moments color book.
So I guess it is safe to say that I am doing a challenge within a challenge and have now challenged myself by years end to finish this color book so I am going to do a total of 15 images for the book so I only have 11 more to go. I welcome your comments each week on the images I am doing this helps me get better and encourages me to keep going!
Thank you for following me!
