  • First quiet Saturday in I don't know how very long. Here's a cure for just about anything that ails you! 💕🍁🍂🍃
  • Painterly sky tonight.
  • I ran out of light yesterday. (Twas quite the Monday.) When I saw the prompts for day 8 for #inktober2018 - star and #flpinktober - music, I immediately thought of an Arthur Rackham painting I wanted to study. This is The Meeting of Oberon and Titania, 1905. His was in beautiful color of course, but I learned so much from this black and white study! . . . . #illustration #createeveryday #artistresidencyinmotherhood #motherculture #drawing #aotehandbookyear2
  • Yet another case of the children and I laughing so hard at the idea I could barely draw the lines straight. For #inktober2018 Day 7 - exhausted and #flpinktober - ice cream. With sprinkles. Elliana was adamant it had sprinkles. (Also, I think exhausted ice cream is my resting face. All the time.) . . . . . #illustration #createeveryday #artistresidencyinmotherhood #motherculture #drawing #aotehandbookyear2
  • I think this is @messihusband favorite right now. 😊 For #flpinktober Day 6- Mountain, because for the life of me I couldn't figure out how to illustrate •drooling• for #inktober2018 - though I think I would be drooling over a peaceful mountain stargazing scene like this. I am definitely a mountain girl. 💕 . . . . . #illustration #createeveryday #artistresidencyinmotherhood #motherculture #drawing #aotehandbookyear2
  • I think when you are literally giggling while drawing to the point you almost mess up the lines, it's the best sign. David requested a hen surprised that the rooster kissed her. Channeled my inner @dantavis a little bit. For #inktober2018 Day 5: Chicken. And with that, I'm caught up! I should go fold laundry now. 🤣🐔🐓💋 . . . . . #illustration #createeveryday #artistresidencyinmotherhood #motherculture #drawing #aotehandbookyear2
  • This one was entirely dictated by my children- Hermione Granger making a peach cobbler. For #inktober2018 Day 4, Spell, and #flpinktober Day 4, Peach. . . . . . #illustration #createeveryday #artistresidencyinmotherhood #motherculture #drawing #aotehandbookyear2
  • This one was just FUN. For #inktober2018 Day 3, Roasted, and #flpinktober Day 2, Key (the quilt is a key hole pattern for you sharp eyed quilters!) , and Day 5, Camp. . . . . #illustration #createeveryday #artistresidencyinmotherhood #motherculture #drawing #aotehandbookyear2
  • Okay, so this checks for #inktober2018 day 2: tranquility and #flpinktober day 3: outer space--- Mara Tranquilitatis or Sea of Tranquility. This made my brain hurt a bit, and I did have to bring the charcoals out so it's not completely ink. You don't realize how much you build up shade and light with color- working in black and white is much more difficult in some ways! A good stretch for ye olde brain tho. 🤔
