My crazy summer and other hypocritical statements

This really cool program was a find from eluckypacket and so I’m going to be adding these to my regular repertoire! However, this quote I pulled out this morning…thinking “wow, what a neat quote”Then, I volunteered 2 full days (7am to 11pm) to drive VIP’s around at the Denver National Convention…neato, eh?

Illustration Friday and a new project

ShareGosh, I haven’t done illustration friday in so long that I’d lost the button off my sidebar. Funny tho, this one came and I just knew what I wanted to do – the theme this week is “Forgotten”: Call it the “Jessie the cowgirl” or “Velveteen Rabbit” syndrome, but there is nothing sadder and more [...]

The picture above was taken on a whirlwind trip to and from Missouri – back to my college reunion to Cottey College in Nevada Missouri. We then took [...]
