I just can't seem to get the nose right, much better than when I first started though. I need to practice more on my blending.. The other picture is a landscape that I was inspired to draw by a beautiful picture my friend Tiffany posted on FB. I have never tried to do this before and surprised myself that it was not bad. but I know I can get much better if I keep practicing it.Toni Stacey Simpsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03217333531302411845noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5242518180072403284.post-11383595209307494662011-09-23T20:43:00.000-07:002011-09-23T20:43:12.499-07:00My first watercolor and a journal page in progress<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HsOeSutPCcY/Tn1RcMbUWuI/AAAAAAAAAE4/MXpYP_sV1xM/s1600/CD+rack+and+My+first+watercolor+085.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" hca="true" height="240px" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HsOeSutPCcY/Tn1RcMbUWuI/AAAAAAAAAE4/MXpYP_sV1xM/s320/CD+rack+and+My+first+watercolor+085.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><br />

I did work on my bird lady page yesterday but when I glued the feathers on with Mod Podge it didn't look good so I have to find some more feathers and I am going to try hot glue. I am also working on my first Zentangle while watching tv at night with my dh. It is really fun and relaxing. I have seen some really beautiful ones out there. I will post pics when I am done.Toni Stacey Simpsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03217333531302411845noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5242518180072403284.post-75138561323394714022011-09-11T19:01:00.000-07:002011-09-11T19:01:00.968-07:00pictures of one of my art journals in progress<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8URSPGpcN7s/Tm1nCd_HiJI/AAAAAAAAAD4/DxtgM66HYAg/s1600/art+journal+and+Aden+011.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" nba="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8URSPGpcN7s/Tm1nCd_HiJI/AAAAAAAAAD4/DxtgM66HYAg/s320/art+journal+and+Aden+011.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><br />

My oldest daughter came by this morning with my 2 grandaughters and my other daughters son who I am keeping for the night because his mommy had to work tonight and has an early morning doctors appointment. And then my dear in-laws came over at 2 for cake and coffee. Then my grandson and I worked on my art journals for a little while. He's 3 years old and a natural crafter. I got the background pages ready to glue down my bird lady. Later tonight I plan on uploading the pages I've done. Thank you to everyone who has been leaving comments, it means a lot to me. I am excited to be up to 7 followers now too.Toni Stacey Simpsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03217333531302411845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5242518180072403284.post-31003464490464699232011-09-08T20:14:00.000-07:002011-09-08T20:14:27.351-07:00My newest faces<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7BNbIBeYVJQ/TmmEJB7JWnI/AAAAAAAAADs/Ol9dVJ-Cozs/s1600/faces+010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240px" nba="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7BNbIBeYVJQ/TmmEJB7JWnI/AAAAAAAAADs/Ol9dVJ-Cozs/s320/faces+010.JPG" width="320px" /></a></div><br />
