More Oil Pastels!!!

Here is some more oil Pastels fun.

I sealed it with the Utrecht gloss medium which is really fun stuff for collaging, as a sealant for acrylic paintings and it is cheaper than the golden brand (I do love golden acrylics too!)

Sorry the picture is so fuzzy.. I am still working out the camera kinks!

Bella the challenge for you in the next few days is when that beautiful baby is sleeping to bust out your pastels and do a quick pastel of your sleeping babe! Nothing perfect, just loose and beautiful!

Heather T. my challenge to you is to grab yourself a set if you don't already have one and draw/ trace/ photo copy something simple and have fun, while your new babe is sleeping!

Anybody else reading pick up the challenge and post a comment with a picture. should be cool!

CREATE!

So I busted out the old OIL PASTELS today and drew a grapefruit. I had so much fun playing and playing for over an hour!

I fallowed the "Tiplets" from Kal's site...check her out she is so fabulous!

6 more days left of school! Wooo Hooo

Memorial Day !!!

What a fun weekend! It didn't snow which was awesome and it was even hot! We were surprised!

We went climbing at one of our fav spots! It is way out in the middle of no-where southern Idaho outside of Burly. It is called City of Rocks State Park. It is beautiful granite everywhere!

All five of us climbed up to the top of Elephant Rock! So fun!

This is what I did the other morning. I really like it.

girls night

Thursday night at last! What a great day! drinks with friends where we spent two hours talking, drinking, and eating. And then we walked around the square where, because it is after 6:00 everything is closed! So fun!

Here are the paintings I painted for H for her birthday. I just felt that she needed these words to encourage her right now. She has started on a journey toward pursuing her passions and it is so exciting to be a part of it. So I painted these sweet images for her to inspire her when things felt hard. Fun.

Tomorrow-Friday!

catching up!

Just beautiful! Isn't she? I love her shinnig eyes and her bright smile! She is my introspective, competitive, sociallite who loves to read and write. She is funny and goes with the flow. A surprise to her father and I that turned us around and turned our lives upside down. Thank goodness for unplanned miracles!
