Drawing With Leighlund Series -

"Scribble Face"

One of the interesting things about working with digital filtering tools is the happy accident that occurs now and then. In fact, just such a happy accident happened in tonight's post and I'll show it sometime over the weekend or next week - I'm still manipulating it and haven't yet decided where to proceed before I can say it's finished. That aside, this is also part of the project where I begin with a drawing or scribble from my cache of beautiful expressionist scribbles from that equally beautiful child, Leighlund Ruth Vincett. Right now, the two of us are mostly excited about Poppa's upcoming birthday on March 22nd - Leighlund is my party planner and last week I was able to have a peek at the planners book. There's a single page with two check off boxes - each with a nice little check mark in it - one for each must have party category: balloons + cupcakes! Sounds good to me, who needs more? :D

HAPPY GROUND HOG'S DAY!

Another image where I'm following a relatively new thread in my working method. I don't have time to go into it further this afternoon but I'll be sure to pick this conversation up again when the next one comes along. So, sorry to post and dash off - but, there's a most precious little girl who's turning 4 and Poppa's been invited to a Birffday Party! Balloons and cupcakes! Oh Boy! :D
