1. Owls by popular demand


Remember way back, oh so long ago, when I was in the middle of my 30/30 project? Ha! Long time ago, right? Seems like it, maybe but actually it really was not that long ago at all. But look, it sure feels like I've come a long way since then. The whole project really reinvigorated me in some very important ways. One of those ways was that it was a big-time catalyst for me to start rethinking the way I've been doing some things and not doing some things. One direct result from this whole Big Think is have I reopened my Etsy shop! The 30/30 project was a big support towards that goal, since it helped me to begin to initially repopulate my shop with new and fresh inventory.

Well, I'm happy to report that I have been keeping up the momentum! I've been seriously stepping up my Etsy shop and will continue to do so. I've been adding new products daily or almost-daily, working to improve different aspects of the overall shopping experience. In general, I'm trying new things, seeing what works for me and I'll also see what doesn't. Also, I'm listening to what people have expressed to me about my work, what they like, what they'd like to have available to purchase... and I'm responding!

On that subject, I received some great feedback on my Hoots in Hats owls group a few weeks ago. To that end, I've been creating and adding more FUNctional art products featuring my owls, and —YES—I will be adding more soon! I hope you enjoy them. And, hey, if there is a product you'd like to see the owls on, I'd love to hear your thoughts!

I LOVE SLEEP.

There was a time in my life—a time up until fairly recently—when I could get by on little sleep for extended periods of time. Those days are gone! Nowadays, I can get by on limited sleep, but only for a very specific, short-term period of time. Basically, I really need my sleep, or I am simply not functioning. It is as simple as that. Sleep: it's just one of those things that forces me to keep my priorities in order!

On that note... Good morning! Tired yet?

Here are some sunny yellow hoots and a happy green bird buddy. They are on their way to one of the last baseball games of the season. Clearly two of them need a little nap before the game... But I'm not pointing fingers here—no judgements! I love a good nap, too!

Hmmm...These owls are very color-coordinated for fall. Such fashionable hoots. Happy Friday!

"Hoots in Hats #2: Sunday Best" ACEO on Etsy


There is something that is just so "Southern Belle" and "Wear your Sunday Best" about this little team of two. Do you sense this as well? They are all gussied up and looking so prim and prop! I think their friends on the left are quite admiring those matching hats...

Today I am starting a series featuring these cute little owl characters! I call them Hoots In Hats.
I love owls, and they sure are fun to draw. What is CUTER than a cute hooty-hoot owl? Maybe one with a baseball cap? Or a pair of quirky-cool mod eyeglasses? DEFINITELY stripey-legged owls. Those are, for SURE, too cute..
