Hi! I’m going to be moving in a few months, so I have been going through my drawings and paintings that have been collecting dust in boxes and scrapbooks for years. Self, I said, “the time has come to start doing something with all this stuff, before you have to pack it all up again.”

I go through these drawing and painting frenzies, where I produce a lot of work that may be just an idea, or may become a full blown painting. That is how I accumulated this large collection of sketches and ideas that wait for me to come back to them to finish.

Many times, when trying to come up with a new design idea, I will review my drawing notebooks for ideas. Today, I found a drawing of my dog Lucy in colored pencil that would make a nice poster or other product.

Quote from unknown author “Everything will be OK in the End, If It’s not, then It’s not the End. Pen and Ink drawing with Watercolor washes, digitally enhanced.

I drew this design in Pen and Ink and then colored it with Watercolor washes. It was then digitally enhanced in Adobe Photoshop Elements for publishing.
