On April 1, 2021March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing, Uncategorized17 Comments

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 …

Jacobean Flowers

On December 12, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing3 Comments

...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 …

“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. …

Notebook Drawings

On October 31, 2016March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing

I have said before that I didn't really start drawing until Mark got sick, in 2011. As the years progressed, I found my drawings getting more and more detailed and complex. I had discovered that adding minute details helped me keep my mind off scary things, like emergency rooms or waiting for operations or procedures to …

Cat Sketches

On August 13, 2016March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing

Since I recently got Foster the Kitten, I decided it was time to pull out my cat drawings... Most of these are from photos that I found online while searching "cute cats" or "cute kittens" images. Since at the time I didn't know you weren't supposed to  draw from a photo by someone else without crediting that …
