Wooo hooooo! We did it, y’all!
First of all I want to give a hearty thanks to all the folks who visited my blog, Facebook, or Twitter to support and root me on. Your comments, retweets, shares and ‘likes’ were encouraging, often funny and clever and always more than welcome. Thanks also for doing the same for my fellow SkADaMoers. You guys made the journey all the sweeter and kept me going when I was tempted to just sit and eat a whole bag of chips while watching goofy, but time wasting kitty antics on YouTube.
I may have only completed 25 sketches in 30 days, but that’s 25 more sketches than I would have done otherwise.
In fact, to all my fellow SkADaMoers:
You decided to step a bit out of your comfort zone this November, dip your toe into a challenge. Maybe you did one sketch, or 5, 10 or all 30. Whatever number you managed to do… You. Are. A. Winner!
Why? “Why am I a winner no matter how many sketches I finished”, you may ask? Well, because you took a positive, productive step toward revving up your creative engines this month. Perhaps your sketchbook is a little fuller, your blog has a few more posts. Maybe you killed it and did 30 sketches or more! Maybe for those who participated in PiBoIdMo or even if you didn’t, you have some great picture book ideas percolating now or some great new ideas for a painting or some other type of super cool project. Maybe because you dipped your toe into this challenge you’ll be more toned up to jump into something even more challenging with both feet! Whatever the case may be, you did it and that is fantastic! Good for all of you!
You rock. Take a winner badge!
Now go on and enjoy the rest of your holiday season, feeling a bit more energized. Maybe you’ll take a rest from sketching every single day, maybe you’ll continue do a wee bit every day…
OR…
Maybe you’re a masochist like myself and you’ll join the HoHoDooDa (Holiday Doodle a Day) fun that December brings (starts tomorrow, or any day you can join. Of course the sooner the merrier.)
More about the third annual HoHoDooDa later today. For now congratulations SkADaMoers! You kicked November’s butt!
And thanks again to everyone who supported us and rooted us on. You guys are winners as well. Take a badge!

PLEASE CLICK ON ABOVE IMAGE.
The Illustration Friday word of the week is crunchy. So I squeaked out another quick 2 sketches to try to make up for my lagging the past couple of days.
…………………………………..
UPDATE:
Ok, I’m not sure where I got the idea the Illustration Friday word of the week was “crunchy.” Must have dreamt it. It’s actually “snow.” So, there’s snow in my image, so it still fits, hee hee!
I hope you’ll drop by here and see what my fellow HoHoDooDa Doodlers are up to.

Today I am thinking about anise cookies.
Anna’s anise cookies.
Aunt Anna’s cookies.
My sisters and I make them every Christmas and they are Aunt Anna’s recipe.
I always think of Aunt Anna when I make them. I’m going to make some today and think of Aunt Anna.
R.I.P sweet, lovely, Aunt Anna.

As nutty as November was, what with PiBoIdMo (thank you so much Tara Lazar!) and SkADaMo, it was just what the doctor ordered as far as a shot of creative, mojo-inducing stress.
Last December, to keep the momentum going, my fellow doodle pals and inspiring muses, Marion Eldridge, Laura Jacobson and I engaged in yet another month-long sketch-a-thon we dubbed HoHoDooDa, short for Holiday Doodle a Day (hmmm, not really that much shorter. Is it?) We did our best to create a holiday-themed doodle a day… or even every other day… or as often as humanly possible, throughout December.
What with the holidays and all, I admit it’s a little crazy and there may be some gnashing of teeth and tears shed, but overall, I’m sure it will be a blast and very rewarding, as it was last year. So, doin’ it again this year!
Anyone who wants to join in is more than welcome, regardless of what winter holiday you celebrate! Let me know in the comments if you’re game, along with the best URL to use and I’ll do my best to keep a list of links going so we can root for each other and enjoy the sugarplum fruits of each other’s doodle labors.
Let the doodling commence!
P.S. By the way, I realize I cheated tonight by using last year’s doodle. Tee hee!

I love holiday cards. I love getting them, but most of all I like making them.
At least it starts out that way.
There’s the initial concept. Fun!
Sketching it up. Fun!
Drawing, painting, tweaking. Fun! Fun! Fun!
But then, there is the whole standing in line at the post office because I absolutely must have those special snowman stamps.
Followed by an attempt at addressing the cards and the subsequent admitting to people that I wrote their address on a scrap piece of paper last year and my cat batted it under the couch and apparently a spider drug it away to it’s nest, so could you pleeeeeeease give me your address for the fifteenth time… and I promise I’ll key it safely into my iPhone this time!
Couple that with the fact that I waited until pretty much the last minute, even though I promised last year and the year before that and the year… ok, the past ten years that I would start in August.
Before you know it, I’ve got a holiday card meltdown on my hands.
Does any of this sound familiar? Am I alone with this?
Anywho, fun? Not so much.
But despite the griping and moaning, after all is said and done, the truth is, it’s just not Christmas until I’ve sent off all my cards and, of course, I receive that very first card in the mail, be it Christmas, Hanukkah or Festivus (I’m still waiting for my first Kwanza card.)
I just love holiday cards!
It’s tradition! Every bit of it, from fun to meltdown and I hope it never goes away!

You really brought the scene in my mind before they fell asleep alive.
That was a great month full of sketches and I enjoyed viewing each and every one. Thanks for sharing…maybe next year I’ll get off my butt and join in too.
Thanks! So glad you enjoyed it. Yes, maybe next year you’ll join! We’d be happy to have you!
By the way, love your graphite work and your photography!!!
Thank you so much, Linda, for setting up this challenge! It really helped me to push myself to get sketches done. Even though I had to play catch-up on many days.. I made it.. and it’s a great feeling! THANK YOU!!!
You are so welcome! Thanks for joining in. You did great! I wish I could have visited more often, but when I did it was a pleasure!
Thank you so much Linda for creating this challenge! It was so much fun seeing what everyone came up with! Count me in for HoHoDooDa!
I’d like to thank all the skadamoers for hanging together, and especially you, Linda, for bringing us together. I came up with a lot of new character friends this month, and met some friendly characters – hee hee!
It’s been a great month:) I loved to partecipate and the best of is that I saw a lot of great illustrators:) Thank you:)
Your welcome and thank you! Glad you’ll be joining the HoHoDooDa fun!
You really rocked it this year, as last year! Loved all your characters, looking forward to seeing them in picture books before too long! How can they miss?! Thanks for joining and thanks for being such a tireless cheerleader for everyone else! You’re the best, Julie!
A big giant thank you!!! Loved your sketches and your rooting everyone one! Hope you have energy for HoHoDooDa!
