Drawing Challenge Day 19: Something New

Day 19: Something New 
Harem Pants!


I sewed some new harem pants to wear at my first ATS Level 2 class!

We've had a week off between sessions and I'm so pumped to belly dance again. 
(Not that I couldnt outside of class...but I think you get my drift.)

This was also the first endeavor with my colorless blender copic marker. 
I like the almost batik ness created. 
I'll definitely have to play around with this little guy.

Drawing Challenge Day 18: Just a Doodle

Day 18: Just a Doodle




So yesterday the family and I went to Pridefest in our town.
My absolute favorite part of the parade
was seeing my friend Jenn M
leading the motorcycles
(big stinky loud ones, mind you)
on her kick ass scooter!

She was smiling from ear to ear with
her adorable dog, Patterson, on her lap.

Such joy and cuteness tends to stick in my head!

Drawing Challenge Day 17: Fave Plant

Day 17: Fave Plant

African Violets


I love African Violets.
They're nearly impossible to kill,
have a soft fuzz,
and always turns toward a sunny window.

Good qualities in most anything if you ask me!

Drawing Challenge Day:16 Inspiration

Day 16: Inspiration


When thinking about this prompt, I looked around my little past posts on this blog
 to see if things leaned one way or another. 

They do, for the most part. 
Media. 

I LOVE my media!

I love the escapism it lends and how craftily twisting things
 in a clever way
 makes me feel oh so clever myself. 

When I can find that one inside joke that maybe no one else gets but me is one of my favorite things!

But, when someone else *does* get it,
 it's the best ever and I know I've found a friend.

Drawing Challenge Day 15: Family Portrait

Day 15: Family Portrait

Adventure Time Style!


Ok, I've decided I need more Copic Markers!
I didn't have the specific colors I "needed" to complete this. 

But, today is about a Family Portrait. 
I went with Adventure Time stand-ins for us as I wasn't in the mood to do anything lifelike and we just got a killer Fionna and Cake book. 
Yay!

So here's "who's who":
Lee=Ice King
Me=Lumpy Space Princess
Morgan=Fionna
Will=Finn
Weezer=Günter

These representations may or may not have anything to do with our actual personalities. 
(snicker, snicker)


Drawing challenge Day 14: Fairy Tale

Day 14: Fairy Tale

Beauty and the Beast
or...
Sandor and Sansa



Don't get me wrong, I love my traditional Fairy Tales.
But right now, The Hound and our little Northern Princess ever finding the
Happy Ending I want for them is the biggest Fairy Tale of all!

I really wanted to play up the B&B comparison and when I remembered the snowball fight/bird scene I decided on that.

Drawing Challenge Day 13: Comic


Day 13: Comic




This is the first joke Morgan "got". 

I vividly remember the roll of her eyes when it dawned on her little existence just how much of a dork her mother is. 

This afternoon I took Morgan out for ice cream and bounced this joke on her again. 
The same rolling of eyes occurred
 and I got a small thrill of having my 3yr old-militantly non-Whovian back. 

Note: I think she poo poos Doctor Who as a small act of rebellion. I still have hope she'll come around.
