The Letter E for Elephant

E is for Elephant

I decided to do another letter E for my Alphabet Soup Illustrated Letters series. 

The first E that I did for the series was using evergreens, so as I was sketching this evening I thought an elephant would be fun. Besides I so so love elephants!

So now I am thinking of illustrating some multiple variations for the series to give more variety, especially if one wants to spell out a word and needs a double letter. 

Sigh! This will keep me busy to be sure!

January

January

I am feeling January with all the snow outside. Now that I am retired and not designing in a windowless cubical, I get to drink in the seasons and see the changes from month to month.

January is the beginning.

The days are now getting longer rather than shorter.

It is snow and quiet.

It is a time of hibernation.

It is a time of books and contemplation.

It is a time to dream.

January's gift is the rest needed before wakening.
