THIS PICTURE IS TO SCALE! 2.5"x3.5"

I had a wonderful week doing artist trading cards. Thank you Gloria, Carlene, Sarah, Lyn and Dan for the wonderful trades! I'm looking forward to getting my mail!

p.s. people have asked about my line. It's a 1.3mm mechanical pencil from the art store - no sharpening : )

Yikes!


I better watch my step... I'm getting addicted to these little ATC's. (Actually, he's suppose to be running but he looks like he's leaping, which is fine 'cause that's way cuter!)

I'm off and running with these artist trading cards. Perhaps I'll do 2 more and just finish off the week with them.

Happy Canada Day!


I've discovered that flag studies are just as challenging, and fun, as figure studies. I drew these from the window of a second floor coffee shop. Happy Canada Day!
