As probably know by now, whenever I see a project, craft or art form that I like, I almost always have to try it myself. Naturally that would have to include lettering! Of course, getting a new inspiration (for me, anyway) usually involves buying something: books, new pens, new paints, new drawing pads...But in keeping …
You might be a cat owner if... ...anytime you need a ponytail holder you just go get one from the floor in pretty much any room of your house. ...you have more pictures of your cat on your phone than you do of your grandkids. ...you have an app on your phone where you collect …
It all started when we found some pictures that didn't get used for Mom's post about the "puppet room". "Wow!" Panda exclaimed. "I wonder why Mom didn't use this one?" I agreed with him. This was a really cool puppet show prop, called the SS Heaven Bound. "Maybe she forgot about it," I offered. "Or …
"Who, me?" Hi everyone! Foster here, with a new excuse - I mean story - for you! But before you read any further just let me say this: It was not my fault! I don't even think it was Panda's fault, although it could have been. Just listen with an open mind, that's all I …
Awhile back, at the end of "Pets in Space", I mentioned that maybe I would do a "Whimsical Flowers" post sometime. And, in keeping with the fact that this is after all supposed to be an "art-related" blog, I probably should do an occasional art-related post. Here you see an example of the classic whimsical …
Someone recently mentioned that Foster may have "too much time on his paws..." It all started when I came in on Saturday after being gone for a couple of hours. Imagine my surprise when I saw this alarming sight! Much as I hate to admit it, my first reaction was to laugh out loud. It …
So the faucet had been leaking for awhile... Not that it was a problem for a certain cat...but it was bugging me. At night I could hear it dripping and would have to get up and move the handle around until I got it to quit. So it was not surprising that eventually I would …
"Dude!" I exclaimed. "What are you doing?" It's not often that Panda comes up with ideas for an adventure, so I was a bit surprised when he replied, "I'm trying this carpet out to see if it will fly. I'm planning a trip to China!" "I think this one is better," I said. "We could …
Once upon a time there was a front room... It was much like any other front room, with furniture, curtains, carpet, bookshelves...everything you would expect to see there. But there was only one problem. Nobody ever used it. The actual "family room" is in the back of the house, so this room was always more …
You have doubtless heard the question "What's in a name?" Well, in this post we will ask (but maybe not answer) the age old question: "What's in a garage?" or perhaps more accurately, "What should be in a garage?" It seems like some people just cannot control their garages. I have always been one of …
