Getting Ready for Christmas

It's beginning to look a lot alike Christmas!

It seems Christmas is coming all to fast.

I have already seen Christmas lights go up in the neighborhood. The time to get things done evaporates...but here is what is so precious about this time of the season...grandchildren!

So of course this proud grandma celebrates them with gratitude as I have finished my Christmas card illustration. 

So here is my wish for all of you that read this:

may you be surrounded with love this season and find blessings in this new year! 

Lakeside in the Fall

Lakeside in the Fall

I threw out my right arm and it has been hard to get motivated to do another illustration. But Autumn is always inspirational. Finally I started to play again. Here is my latest illustration. 

An Attitude of Gratitude

Begin Each Day with a Grateful Heart

I came upon this sentiment and thought to illustrate it. I don't know who said it, but I do know when I practice it I feel better. 

Revisiting and Updating: Bright Side

Bright Side

Here is a new version of an illustration that I have revised more than once.

As you can see, the beauty of working digital allows for change. Hopefully the third time is the charm.

Revisiting and Tweaking an Illustration

C is for Cat & Cockatoo

Still go back from time to time to revisit and tweak an illustration I created. 

I went back to change the background to a more pronounced check, tweak proportions, and a touch more green, and add more contrast.  

The beauty of working digitally is I can always go back to change it up.
