Spittin' Licorice final

So here is the final more logo-y looking logo for my friend's family reunion.

(I added the tagline that no Licorice Nibs were harmed...hehe)

Spittin' Licorice

I did this illustration for a friend for her family reunion. But it was too detailed. Oh well. It was fun to draw. Now I need to do a simple clean version of it.

And yes- she asked me to have them spitting licorice. ; )

Love you, sweet Plum!

Every day is Mother's Day in my book because every day I am grateful for my Mom.
Love you, Momma. Thank you for everything.

Life IS good!

It is a good day.

It is sunny out.

Things are looking up in general.

Life IS good!

A Thank You Card

My next door neighbor was so kind to get rid of my mondo monster old tv and a broken basketball standard for me this last saturday. So I made a card for him.

Love This Reminder...

A sweet note

So I was missing my Mom an extra amount last week. Just wanted to hear her voice.

Saturday when I was cleaning out a kitchen drawer, I found a birthday card from her. She had written," Happy birthday! I love you so much!!!"

I have no idea why I would have a birthday card in that drawer. But I am certainly glad I found it.

Thanks for reminding me, Momma. Love you so much!!! too.

A little girl and her dog

Just a quick little sketch. That is one little chunky puppy!

Would I balance on a fence?

I guess if I was a pheasant...I would just sit for hours balanced on top of a fence.

Yes, I saw Phyliss the pheasant just sitting on the fence yesterday. Once in a while I would check on her and sometimes she teetered a little but she was determined to sit on that fence. That yard you can see with the deck has a big black dog in it. I think the dog was away because he is kind of loud and can jump up and if he had been there, I am sure he would have teetered Phyliss onto the ground. At least she was aimed for "teetering" into my yard or the white shed yard. Phew.

Watch out, Phyliss! Don't teeter into the black dog yard!

(You would think that wouldn't be comfortable for Phyliss to balance on that fence. Oh well- I don't know how pheasants think.)

Sunny, Pretty Spring Day! L O V E it!

Yes, my lawn is all brownish looking but it is S P R I N G on a Saturday! What else could you ask for?

It is just a nice pretty day with a pale blue Spring sky. The sun is shining. My favorite season.

I hear a tree being cut down. Birds are chirping. Phyliss the Pheasant continues to reside in my backyard...10 days now. Flowers planted by the previous owners are stretching up and blossoming.

Happy Spring to all!!!
