Creative Tuesdays - Hair

"I will NEVER brush my hair,"

....said Penelope

See what happens when little girls don't brush their hair?????

For more fun hair raising art pop on over here to Mr. Toast's Creative Tuesdays.

Come play along with us...it's so much fun!

Illustration Friday - Atmosphere

Madeline wasn't sure if it was the cheese

or the atmosphère in Paris,

but she was inspired to paint many great things 

while on her recent trip there....

Sunday Sketches - A Tribute to Super Mom

This is a tribute to all of the Super Moms
(and dads, you know who you are) out there
who have ALMOST made it through the summer,
entertaining the little people in our lives.
So, I am sure you have had your share of
 Monopoly, arts and crafts, tennis, soccer, museums, beaches, pools,
musicals, day trips, zoos...camping, kayaking, movies, sleepovers...and more, right?
So, With Starbucks in hand I salute YOU!
Great Job!
I love my girls more than anything else in the whole world,
we've had a great summer, but now I am ready for a little camp of my own...
maybe a weekend here, or here...no plans, no ideas, no agendas just ME.


This drawing was actually inspired by my friend, Sophia, who hosts Sunday Sketches, here.
She's pretty super, herself!
Please visit her at The Blue Chair Diary for some great sketches and wonderful artists...
won't you join us this week?

Camp Mom - the final countdown

I like to refer to August as

Camp Mom,

at my house.

Regular camp is over, and I am the official camp counselor around here...now.

Ok, so we've done just about everything on our list this year.

We've gone here, here and here...and even here.

So, today, we discovered a great new art supply shop.

I just love a good art store...so inspiring, everything is so colorful...so new and clean....

we picked up some Prismacolor markers,  I have never really worked with markers before, but I had fun with the colors we bought and this little drawing.

the only bad thing? there was no Starbucks anywhere....in sight....

and we need a lot of that, at Camp Mom....

Enjoy your day!
