cranky jaded hippy attorney bird

To balance  out all the rocks i will probably be showing for days on my blog since i am trying to post daily, I will show you something different today...
 
i made a cranky bird in my sketchbook....
 
I found Dar Host's cranky birds though Carla Sonheim's blog where she is having a celebration due to her new book release. She has had tons of tutorials so i thought i would try a cranky bird, which is required to have a cranky comment next to it. Since I have been in court (not for personal reasons or jury duty but for work) I made my cranky bird a cranky jaded hippy attorney bird.
 
Random fact: tons of our attorneys here do not look clean cut but rather have very long hair and /or pony tails. (Just a small observation, that i happen to like)
 
I started with a tea blob left over from setting my teabag in my sketchbook, not sure if that idea was from either dar hosta or carla sonheim but i saw it somewhere....
 
 
I saw the bird right away and started adding lines and color....
 
 
these are fun and addictive because i want to do more... well i have already done more tea blob sketches, so far they each involve a little boy named JoJo who rides monsters...(you'll have to wait till later to see those), but since I started on the court thing here are some sketches I did in court, the color added later as i only carry a pen to court...
 
 
 
 
even if I try
I can never predict a
judges decision...

share the joy

Every thursday a group of people gather here to share their joy each week....


I just wasn't feeling inspired to do these Everyday matters challenges...Either it was the sketchbook that wouldn't take water... or the subject matter, I don't know. Now that I am back to a new visual journal I am so much happier. I just love being able to add watercolor to my sketches. These first two are Everyday matters challenges ....

 EDM... draw your hand
this EDM was to draw your glasses I think


So now, even though I was in court alot and  I sketched there... at least I am drawing whatever I feel like (which brings me JOY) and adding color !





Come back tomorow... and  I will have a post with  another thing that brings me joy lately.....my rocks...
