Flying along the Beach. Are you ready for the summer! This is a new postcard that I will be sending out.
I have been out of commission for a few months due to pain,surgery, etc. Sorry I have missed on blogging and connecting with people and seeing what everyone is up to! Getting on the computer was a big chore and only once in a while I would be able to say "like"but not much else.... But, when I felt I could sit by this computer -little by little I was able to get a new website up (which I was building on for a year already! and with help from my husband ) and work on this postcard before I had this last surgery.
My recovery has been slow going and I am always thinking I can do more than I can. :D Each day is better. I kept busy by sketching a comic that I wanted to do for my kids. Maybe I will post it so you can check it out. It was an idea I had for a book. I just had to keep sketching to pass the time keep from going stir crazy after the surgery.
I just added color to them.
So I introduce to you: Buttons and Stinky
written and illustrated by me;)
But, I would like to say I am back and ready to show all I am still here and ready to start any new project that might come my way! :) and I look forward to seeing what everyone is up to or just if you stop by please say hi and let me know you visited. :D

Hey Ann, sorry to hear you've been dealing with all of this! Hope you're on the mend, now...Will be looking forward to your posts, as you're able. As far as your art capabilities go, you're still "able!" Fun to see Mary P and friends- that was one of my childhood faves! Take care! :o)
What a FUN image for a postcard! Their enthusiasm & excitement is written all over their faces!!! Wishing you a full & speedy recovery! No more pain!!!
Thanks Michele! yes one of my all time fav's too! I can not wait to be myself again! Thanks for chkin in with me and saying hi! :)
Thanks! Yeah I was wondering if I needed to add someone in that is having something other than a smiley face. Like a whoa! but it just did not look right. :/ Thanks for your wishes and ckin in to say hi! Yes hoping to say I have no more pain! soon soon! :)
I love this! I love the combination of realism and those bold lines and colors. So fun and full of energy. And of course lots of bonus points for the cute puppy! It's got a crazy angle to it but it totally works and is full of energy!
I am so sorry to hear you have been under the weather. I've just signed up for emails (don't know why I hadn't sooner) and if you can post once in a while, I bet people will say nice and encouraging things! Which is always nice, I find. ;)
Oh! And is that a new banner? (If not, well, I don't always notice things lol) I love love that blue city! And Mary Poppins? Oh my gosh, I need to watch that again. If nothing else, my favorite song and dance number, "Me Old Bamboo".
Hi Ann! I love your style of children illustration. I found you at illustrationfridays.com are you available for any re-touching work?
I love the energy in this Ann. It's really fun. So sorry to hear about your surgery. I do hope that you will be back to 100% very soon.
Yay! thanks for signing up. And all the compliments.It means so much.:) Love those crazy angles to see what I can get away with! hee hee
Yes!! who doesn;t like the Ole Bamboo! Yeah new banner and love this movie to pieces. Watched it a 1000 times to try to get the characters as straight as I could.
HI there RoShawanda! Thanks for saying hi! and Thanks for your compliment.:) If you are speaking of photography? I do not do retouching. Sorry. That is a major skill set that I hv not taken on.
