Another quick little illustration. I woke up from a dream saying "when life hands you lemons, hit ctrl+z" and my husband looked at me kinda' strange. It made me laugh though so I spent a little time drawing it out.

Cross your fingers for me, I may or may not have some exciting goings-on in the near future. That's all I can say for now. Don't you hate when people do that?
Also, recently saw a fabulous quote and knew I had to illustrate it. It suits how I feel so perfectly. This is also available in my print shop at many different, and very affordable, sizes. I highly suggest the 18x12, which is the size I designed it. Art this colorful just says it better big. I have been ordering and framing copies of my own stuff lately, the design stuff, and I am loving how cheerful it makes me. Looks fabulous on the wall and this one would be so sweet in a child's bedroom. Such good words of wisdom because so much of who we are is determined by how we handle the situations we find ourselves in. Another thing I would love my daughters to remember.
Have a great weekend!
Keeping up with my "Remember this" project. One photo combined with a bit of wisdom/advice that I want to make sure I've said to my daughters. I don't like time to pass too quickly, but I am excited for the year-long completion of this project and the gorgeous book that should result. 52 weeks worth of beauty with a lifetime of love poured into the recipients.
Do you have a happy home? I'm not asking about a clean home, or a well furnished home. But a happy one? I do. It's something that struck me today, out of the blue. More messy than clean, more run-down than new and fancy, but the one thing you are guaranteed to get at our home is laughter. I don't have an exotic life by any means, but I am happy most of the time, most every day. Decided to make a little illustration of a happy house and loved how it turned out so thought I'd offer prints. It's printed on 12"x18" metallic paper and is so happy and cheerful looking!
I took a little time last week to participate in an art challenge issued over on Kal Barteski's blog (one of my daily must reads!) Pick a subject/topic and explore the same thing in 5 different ways over the course of 5 days. I've been noticing a lot of roads showing up in my photos lately so I went with that. I loved having an excuse to play around with photos and software with no real goal other than exploring what kind of look I could come up with. These are all digital effects. And I did combine one day with my other ongoing project, the remember this series. I'm all for the "two birds/one stone" method when necessary. The pieces of this series are available as prints, beginning at $8 for a 12x8, in my print shop.
