Blueberries may not seem like an obvious answer to "family stuff", but read my blog http://lindahensley.blogspot.com/ to see the connection. Blueberry waffles and Grandma make for great memories :)
This is my first posting with Watercolor Wednesday. I've loved looking at everyone's work!
It seems to me that trying to work on portfolio pieces here, while being a rather ambitious undertaking, has been a dismal failure for most of the membership.
How about a show of hands to go back to weekly prompts and a fun place to blow off some creative steam? We can use the prompts to work on portfolio pieces if we want/need them.
All in favor?
Happy Birthday to you. May all your birthday wishes come true!
A lion? A tiger? What can these little bears see?!
They had all decided that they would host a wonderful Tea Party in honor of the woman who gave them human like qualities.
"Here's to our heroine Beatrix Potter. She changed how the humans viewed us and gave us dignity and clothing."
I did this painting back in February. Since I went to the library and took out all the Potter books they had to work on my mousie, I thought it would be a good tribute piece. In the spring I was contacted by a counted cross stitch pattern maker to license the image as a a counted cross stitch. I must say that was a huge thrill. The pattern is up here.
The site also licensed several other pieces, mostly flowers, which have not been made into patterns yet.
Sorry I've been MIA. My plate suddenly got fuller than I expected. I still want to "play catch up" for the couple of weeks I missed.
I just sort of scribbled until this lovely lady showed up on the paper. What do you think?
My portfolio
Two of our graphic novels are featured in an School Library Journal article this month. King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, from our Graphic Revolve set, and Tiger Moth, Insect Ninja, from our Graphic Sparks set, are spotlighted in Michele Gorman’s list of 25 great graphic novels for young readers. The books are among some great company--our sister company Capstone Press's The Shocking World of Electricity with Max Axiom, Super Scientist! is listed, as are a bunch of other great books.
Check out our website to see the other graphic-novel retellings of classic books in our Graphic Revolve set, and other funny, goofy books in our Graphic Sparks set.
How beautiful and filled with so much wonderful detail. I love it. It does remind me of Grandmother. How special and wonderful. Great illustration.
great blueberries! they are a favourite of mine.
Very nice, I never tasted blueberry waffles. But it sound delicious! :)
How lovely and harmonious. Your blog is very entertaining!
Thanks everyone! Blueberry waffles are a lot like blueberry pancakes, but SO much better! But then anything Grandma made was wonderful!
