Art, art & more art

Not too much going on around here...just enjoying these summer days! Chris is off & spending some time at Damian's visiting with college friends. I'm so glad they still keep in touch. Clay & the boys went to play golf early this morning....part of Michael's birthday celebrating. (Tomorrow's his birthday)...& right now they are out in the front yard practicing their putting. Ashley is in the kitchen baking some banana bread....I'm thinking a cup of coffee in a little while will be just perfect with that.
Ok, so I saw this piece of paper laying on the dining room table earlier today with the words 'Please Draw On Me' written across the top. That's it. Who could resist? I was the first.....& drew that fat owl that said 'Hoooo, Me?' Next Alli came along & added the mustache to him & it just went from there. If you look closely you can see Sponge Bob, Patrick, Squidward, Elf, Jamie & Adam Harry Potter & his gang, Batman, Abe Lincoln.......
I found a new favorite blog over the weekend....through Pinterest, of course. She's an awesome mom, Homeschooler AND a wonderful artist. She is responsible for my renewed interest in my art journal. Nothing fancy, mind you.....but I've been having fun.
