hello

Another friday has come again so quickly...
I thought we were due for spring, I had some flowers up in my yard, little crocuses and then we got snow...
inches of snow...
days of snow...







But it has all melted again now 
and I have been working on a mandala (still in progress)
 

 for my e-class; 
Falling Into Mandalas 


coming out in July, 2016
You can signup at coursecraft here
 (also still in progress),

and I have been working on little alphabet children
 (I can't decide between detailing in pencil.... or pen. Goldie and Tim are pen, and Annie and Meg are pencil.)  
.





And I have been working on some fabric too, 
for Spoonflower's "Sprout" contest...
they are looking for a fabric that would work well in a Kimono style pattern. 


See you soon,

  2. oh that snow!!! We had some last Sat but thankfully it was just a wet snow that melted very quickly. Super variety of art! I am quite partial to the alphabet series:) Thank you so much for your lovely Mandala book I received! I am working on my first piece now and will share it along with the book next week:)

  7. The snow just wants to linger. Love all the art and I can't help with pencil or pen. They all look great.
    Have a sunny weekend.

  8. Ok, I know you are probably OVER it with Spring being here but oh, oh OH I would give anything for a blanketing snowfall. . . we had zero this year, not even our usual one measurable snow this year. I am planning to visit home in PA next February and hoping for a big snowfall while there! :)

    The alphabet kids are SOOOOOo delightful Andrea! I too am torn between pencil or pen. I want to say pencil because it's softer. . . seems to work better with the theme for me. :)

    The fabric is just wonderful too! I heard a podcast interview with the creator of Spoonflower yesterday and it got me interested in designing fabric too! lol

  9. I hope the snow has gone by now and spring is on its way for you! It's still freezing here although the flowers are budding into life regardless.
    I love those alphabet children - they're so cute. I prefer the detailing in ink, I think it finishes them off and gives them more definition but either way is lovely.

  10. I adore your alphabet pages!!!
    I would think this is a book that would be accepted by a publisher!
    guessing you are beyond snow now, but who knows with the craziness of weather these days. Wishing you a lovely spring.
