Almost done with ABC Animals! If you remember, in Part 4 we left off with the letter "S" and "Sea Horse" in progress.So "Sea Horse" is finally finished. That only left me with the letters T, U, V, W, X, Y, and Z. I have to admit I was starting to get "artist's block" the …
"Hey Panda! How tall is the Seattle Space Needle?" Foster's voice woke me from a sound sleep. "I think it's 605 feet," I responded sleepily from under the bed. "Why?""Well," Foster began. "Mom has this crossword puzzle up here on the bed and I was just seeing if I could find some answers for her. …
Or, "Don't Try This at Home, Part 2" So the toilet in the guest bathroom had been leaking for awhile...If that opening sentence sounds familiar to you, you have probably read "Don't Try This at Home", where I detailed my (first) experience with Do-It-Yourself home plumbing. If you remember, I ran into a few problems …
Yay! Inktober is done! Yes, I know it's November, but at least I finished my drawings on the first, so it may still have been October 31 somewhere in the world... So I only had three left to go when I posted "Inktober, Part 2". The words were "double", "jolt", and "slice". For "double" I thought …
Don't you just love turtles? I do, because, besides being cute, they have such potential to be whimsical. I like them in drawings, on stepping stones, in mosaics, photos, and even in real life. Except that if you get those really tiny ones at the pet store, you have to wash your hands after touching …
But first, a review of Inktober, Part 1... I know you have been wondering (or not) where the rest of my "Inktober" drawings have been. Well, most of them have been in my mind, up until this week, when I realized I was so far behind I that I had to do about 10 drawings …
Okay, you really don't want to know about my "former" sago palm... Suffice it to say that I had to trim back all its leaves... However, I managed to plant it in the flower bed, so we'll see how it does there. It also had two "babies" that I will be attempting to plant as …
Hi everyone, it's me, Foster, reporting from the edge... Mom was looking at me the other day while I was sitting on the corner of the kitchen table, and she remarked to herself how I always seem to sit right on the edge of stuff. The table was kind of messy so she didn't take …
"What is Inktober?" you may ask... For the longest time, I wasn't too sure myself. I did know it had to do with drawing one picture in ink (hence the name) every day for the entire month of October. Inktober is a fun challenge for all types of artists, so this month I got inspired …
You remember my garden spheres, right? (If you're just joining us, you can go back and read "Just Add Water" to see these spheres in their humble beginnings.) They sat around for weeks while I tried to decide what to do with them, and finally the idea hit me! Wouldn't it be fun to make a …
