Biting the Bullet

On May 6, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing

If you are a Pinterest fan, you have doubtless heard of "Bullet Journals". If not, keep reading... I have to admit, the concept of bullet journals intrigued me, but, as with Bible Journaling,  it took me awhile to "jump on the bandwagon" and give it a try.  Part of it was that there are so …

“Are You an Artist?”

On May 4, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing

Do you ever wonder why I'm always taking close up pictures of Foster? (Besides the fact that he's cute, I mean?) Well it all goes back to "New Friends", where he asks why I never draw him. I always think, "I need to try drawing Foster" and so I take close ups upon close ups. …

A Trip to the Louvre

On April 30, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Foster and Panda

"Hey Panda." Foster's voice sounded dreamy and far-away. We were in the front living room, and Mom was already in bed. The stars were bright and the sky was clear. It was a perfect summer night. "Climb up here and look out," Foster instructed. "Don't you ever wonder what all is out there in the world? …

Watercolors Again

On April 24, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing

No, I haven't given up on watercolors! You just haven't seen any here for awhile because I've been into other things... But a few weeks ago I participated in an "art swap" from The Art Colony site. When you do an art swap, different people sign up to make either artist trading cards (ATCs) or …

Little Cat Feet

On April 20, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Foster and Panda

"The fog comes on little cat feet..." I've always liked these words from Carl Sandburg's poem "Fog". It just seems like the perfect description of fog creeping in, and of course, who doesn't like little cat feet? You may remember this photo if you've read my post  "You Might be a Cat Owner". A friend mentioned …

ABC Animals Part 2

On April 16, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing

It's time for an update on my ABC Animals art journal! I am now all the way up to the Letter "I". In case you haven't seen my original ABC Animals post, here are the letters I had finished at that time. ("Dolphin" wasn't actually finished then, but now it is.) I always like to …

Under the Bridge

On April 13, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Sewing and Crafts

In the story of the "Three Billy Goats Gruff", as well as in other Scandinavian folk tales, it was dangerous to cross bridges because trolls lived under them. Well, you may not know this, but trolls also live in large cardboard boxes marked "troll houses, trolls and other items from 1960's-70's"!You may remember that in …

Not Really Silver

On April 11, 2018April 13, 2020 By nanasworldwebIn Uncategorized

It's not really silver...It's just painted that way! To understand the title of this post, you have to know about the silver pickup. It was our first pickup, which would later become the first work truck for our pest control business. But where the silver pickup became famous was actually in Sunday School.We spent quite …

It's always fun to get a new box! Well, Mom said I could do this post (after all, she is the person, so I guess it's her call...) I'm really excited because what I have to tell you this time is beyond awesome!So yesterday we get this box from Amazon. My favorite part about helping …

She’s the Person

On April 6, 2018 By nanasworldwebIn Uncategorized

Hi everyone, it's me, Foster, with more to think about... Remember when I told you there's a lot to think about in life? Well, I've discovered even more to think about! And believe it or not, a lot of it has to do with who's the person and who's the cat. Allow me to explain. …
