Art Rage 3: Getting back into it

I may not have the tablet for much longer, so I'm finishing up some old sketches. This one is almost there.

Takin' a break!

It's gonna be a looong Presidents Week. I'll be back when it all blows over.

Art Lab: Barbara Marker's Art from the Heart

This post is a bit late, as this event happened Saturday night, but it was an amazing time and has to be shared. Two nights ago, Johnny and I attended our lovely and talented friend Barbara Marker's exhibition of her work in her own show, Art from the Heart.

Thursday Art Club: Happy Valentines Day!

Love and creativity are in the air in Thursday Art Club! Valentine's Day has never been my favorite holiday, but it's fun to celebrate with kids...you know, when it's all about the candy.

I had a pretty flimsy project planned, but I decided instead to improvise. I got some pink, red, and white paper, some scissors and glue, and some coloring stuff. Then I pointed everything out, and gave them free reign. This was a bit of a gamble, because without enough structure to our art time, they can get restless and bored. The result?

If there's one thing a macro lens has taught me, it's that I don't dust nearly as much as I think I do. That being said, here are some close up looks at the creative space I share with artist Johnny Beware.

Thursday Art Club: Watercolor Fish

Back to basics. With almost every group of kids that have been in my art clubs over the years, there's one activity that they always get excited about: painting.

Macro Mania

I forgot how much fun macro photography was. It's nice to have more to work with than just a dinky smartphone camera.

Weekend Sketches and a New Toy

It was a short weekend, and I've been sick for most of it. Thank goodness I don't have cable or I might have been tempted to watch the Superb Owl. So what else do you do when you're under the weather and stuck on the couch for two days straight?

1. Pout.
2. Watch Netflix.
3. Draw.
