Part of my challenge to myself to sketch directly in ink this month, and to play around with using alcohol markers for value (a new tool in my arsenal).

Experimenting with digital watercolor brushes.

this is a story of a little Lion Leo adventures in his dreams.

This is the Tidy corner on my desk. The rest are not fit for audience.

Who doesn't like a VW bus?

Some of these vintage cargo bikes are so gorgeous just like the people using them.

Riding into the summer

The little bluebird, restless artist, Flew over the orange horizon without restraint. With his box full of colored pencils, He thought he could paint the sky in an instant, of course! But too many pencils and too few wings, Unbalanced the poor little bird. So many colors, no coordination, His creative disaster fell to the ground! Orange, yellow and red pencils shattered, While the little blue bird fell in tears. His celestial dream turned into a nightmare... Until he saw - a rainbow formed! From sadness, joy overflowed, In that magical moment he understood: It doesn't matter the skill or the tools, Art comes from the heart, even if messy!
