Million giraffes drawing


Still sick but couldn't stand it any longer not to do anything artwize so I learned of this challenge of 1 million giraffes project so I decided to draw 1 and upload it there and now here. Of course I didn't do this in my studio area, but I have a clipboard of paper and pencils downstairs so I could at least do something. It was fun. I used a photo model courtesy of photo8.com, they let me use it free if I acknowledge them or even if I don't, they have tons of photos with the same policy if any one is interested.

Anyway I uploaded it to this site, maybe you'll want to do the same:

Praying that I will be well soon, but thankful I can still draw something sometimes while I wait.

Happy New Year & begin 90 day posting



Happy New Year! I'm back to start up my 90 day posting but with a twist I'm going to post every other day so I'll be posting #s 90 then 88 then 86, you get the idea. I realized daily posting caused me a ton of stress and since taking this break I realize I could be more relaxed if I posted every other day so that is what I am going to do. Hope every one had a great New Years, I sure did with my church family here on Okinawa! I am so blessed with the members of my church, they are all so giving and encouraging.
