So who would have thought… When I started this blog in 2016, it was mainly going to be art related. I was looking for a way to give my artwork an “online presence” so I could sell items on my Zazzle store. I have to say that my top selling item isn’t my artwork after …

A Year of Drawings
Because drawing always makes you feel better. Now that Foster and Panda have shared their "year of masks" with you, I thought I would share my "year of drawings". Because it hasn't only been about masks. This past year was one of changes, emotions, and new routines. And one of the best ways I have …
“Pencil-tober”
I know, it's really supposed to be "Inktober"... But I really wasn't crazy about the prompts list for this year, and I didn't feel like making up my own. No offense, you understand. I just wasn't crazy about them.So I took my favorite panda notebook with me when I went to have my car checked …
The Wonderful World of Color(ing)
Who wants to color? I know I do! Except that we cats don't have opposable thumbs, so I can't hold the colored pencils that well. But for those of you who do, we have some new coloring pages for you. Plus, Mom made them into Word documents that you can download and print out for …
Jacobean Flowers
...are very hard to draw! I have always loved Jacobean designs, since way before I even knew what they were called. I still remember the first time I heard the term. I was wearing a skirt with a flowery pattern and someone complimented it, saying, "That's very Jacobean". Not wanting to admit my ignorance of …
ABC Animals Part 6 – Zebra!
You may have seen this before... It's from Foster and Panda's adventure, "Safari", when Foster wanted to go to Africa to visit his big cat relatives. In this photo, Panda has jumped up onto a zebra's back and jokes that they may be his long-lost relatives. Foster, as usual, admonishes him to get down, fearing …
ABC Animals, Part 5
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 …
Inktober, Finished!
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 …
“Inktober”, Part 2
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 …
“Inktober”, Part 1
"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 …
