I'm So Sad


(Click to enlarge)


I don't expect everyone to understand--most people don't. I had to put my dear friend to sleep on Sunday. He was a malamute/siberian husky mix. We would have been together 10yrs this coming March.

He was a faithful and devoted one who taught me how to love God even more, by the way he always greeted me...with anticipation, lots of love and happiness. I will miss my Blu he was such a blessing, when I got him almost 10yrs ago--that was the first time that I realized that God gave us the desires of our hearts.

I have always had pets of every kind, but I always wanted a 'wolf dog' with blue eyes...as I called the dog I didnt have a name for it when I was a little girl So please know that yes, God does give us the desires of our hearts. Don't lose sight of the vision whatever it is

Please forgive the messiness. I was at work just doodling, trying to test charcoal on a used piece of paper, while thinking about my Blu .

Weekend Doodle #10--Distraught




(Click to enlarge)


Here are some doodles I did this past weekend. I was trying out various graphite, carbon and charcoal both alone and in combinations for different rendering effects.

The top effect will now serve as my clouds, what a wonderful surprise I found while playing around. Last week I was online and when I got off I unplugged the ethernet as usual when getting off and went off to do whatever it was that I usually do other than internet search.

Well, the next day when I plugged the ethernet back up, now all of a sudden my laptop will not connect to the internet. I played around for hours, bought a new ethernet and still cannot connect. Now I'm distraught.

Usually I scan my postings, but this one was in my large Canson 11x14 sketch book which I reserve for portraits drawings. I took a picture of it, because the scanner bed is too small. Yukkkkkkkkk!

Now the tears fall. HELP if you can, I do not know what else to do. Oh, and by the way the ethernet connection DOES work on the desktop, but of course, yep, you guessed it, all of my goodies are on my laptop :(

What a wonderful surprise I found when I visited my blog yesterday. Anetka left this award for me. It is such an honor because she is truly a topnotch artist whose work I admire very much. Please be sure to check out her blog, she has been working on an awesome render of Will Smith as Hancock.

There are several other accomplished artists who I wanted to give an award to also, it was not easy because EDM is chock full of them. So, in saying this I truly hope that no one is offended and that those I am passing this honor onto will accept this award and know that they are truly inspirational in both the work they produce and willingness to share and encourage others to do what they love!

They are:

African Tapestry
Genxsters
A Latte A Day
Nemcosky Art
Meinhild
Margaret Hunt
Clare
