New Paintings



After thinking for the past year that I would like to do some painting I Finally busted out the paints and made two new pieces last week.



Painting is very different than block printing. Cutting very concrete lines and patiently carving away linoleum is meditative and slow. Painting is messy and loose.
It was fun and a good reminder to Just Make It!



Let me know any feedback you have!

Edythe and the Radish


I have began to write down titles for pieces to make later. While cutting radishes the other day I thought this would be a cute picture, and I like the way the two words look together.

First Draft



My friends asked me to make a piece incorporating the phrase "Cultivate Gratitude"
A great reminder for all of us.
This is my first draft drawing. I like the majority of it, just need to change a few things.





I have had this drawing on my to do list for weeks. Why is it so hard to begin?
Once drawing I had a great time, what's more fun then drawing pretty flowers and contemplating all of my blessings?



Will post the finished project when it's finished!
