After way too long, I am back with A Drawing A Day (What is this? A Drawing a Quarter?!). And guess what? I am loving it. If I have an unproductive day or I can't get motivated, I just feel like at least I have done something. Yes, that is exactly how I have been feeling. And I feel good about this watercolor. I am going to keep doing cupcakes because I love the and they are popular with the audiences right now, and it's really neat to see how my drawings change over time.
I have realized how much I love working with a practically dry brush on this clayboard.
This one is quite small, only 4"x4". I love the intimacy of such a small painting -- both while making it and in the end, looking at it.
A couple notes to self:
- Do this more often. It makes you feel good.
- You also like using black Bravo markers -- a lot.
- Good thing I am making this "note to self" list. I can't even remember the last of the three in a span of minutes. Oh well.
I made this card for my dear friend Sarah's tea themed bridal shower, and even though I loved it, couldn't post it until after the shower.
So, here it is. I love the print and its simplicity. It is a notecard, but could be framed as a nice, simple (and inexpensive) print.
You can but it here, on Etsy.
So no, I don't love the new header, but I can't get it to work like I want it to, so it is going to have to do. I am trying to make it match my new website to be, but blogger, though wonderful in so many ways, doesn't give me much leeway in terms of changing the header. So this is it for now. Oh well.
Oh, yeah. Even more frustrated with the new website. That's why I tried to work on the blog "look."
Alas...
So that is the the look I am going for at right...it is simple but I want the art to speak, not the website so much...The top is the original InDesign document, and the bottom is the coding as it is right now -- I do have to say I
am impressed with my ability to translate it in Dreamweaver. However, SO much work to do on it...I need to...
- Choose the art/design to use
- Figure out the way I am going to show multiple pages
- Figure out the way I am going to show images a little bigger
- Take pictures
Don't hold your breath waiting for it. I don't expect it up too soon.
