Day 17 of 29 Faces
I'm still going strong...keeping up with my daily faces. Today I thought I was only going to get a sketch out since I have a headache that won't quit. But after I sketched her I was called to color her in and used my Derwent Coloursoft pencils. This is my first time coloring a face in pencils I had to use odd colors to get the shading (which I'm still learning to do). But I like how she turned out...

Also, I've been meaning to share what my Hubby helped me create. I was wanting to buy one of those tub pencil holders and mount it on the wall so I could lay my markers down, as I've read they work better stored this way. Anyway, he helped me create this version out of PVC pipes...cool or what!

Day 16 of 29 Faces
I've really been enjoying our Angels in My Studio community and all that's been shared there. Today's face is of an angel we created for Week 2's lesson by Lori Franklin of Sparkly Heart Studios.

Magickal Adornments and 29 Faces

SNEAK
PEEK!
So what do you think??
You are all the first to see my new creations...I'll be listing them tomorrow and more are on the way! Any color combo suggestions?
It's been another busy day...so my #14 Face is another simple sketch only...I was inspired by a beautiful drawing by La, one of my fellow Life Bookers.

Happy Mother's Day and 29 Faces
Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there. Today my dear friend Sara shared a wonderful blog post in which she called "This is to Mother You"...which is also the title one of my favorite songs. A song I first heard during my Inner Child Workshop 10 years ago with Life Coach Geoff Laughton. It's such a beautiful song...reminding us we are never alone...even if we weren't mothered when we were young.
Today was a hard day for me, as my little one is sick and seemed to only be getting worse, what I thought was just another cold ended up being strep throat, which we later found out when we ended up in the ER. I was really concerned that his fever kept spiking despite the Tylenol and that he had developed a whole body rash...which later we find out is know as scarlet fever. Though it sounded serious, it's not as serious as it used to be, it's just the body reacting to the toxin produced by the strep throat, and it didn't mean the infection is any way more serious that a strep throat without a rash. Poor little person...now he's on antibiotics and seems to be doing much better.
My face for today is a simple sketch...still playing with hair styles...

Soulistry and 29 Faces
Gorgeous day here today and I enjoyed sitting outside and inhaling the heavenly heavy scent of my lilac bushes; which are so abundant this year compared to last.
Today I completed my art for week two of Soulistry - Artistry of the Soul: Creative Ways to Nurture Your Spirituality by June Mack Maffin. We are visiting this book in our Premium Book of Days group; doing some journaling prompts and arting along. Week two was about our gifts. Effy had a wonderful take on this sharing our gifts as being from the Divine and coming to us through our totems. After doing some soul searching around my gifts, I realized that since I recently discovered how strong my totem gifts have resonated with me I decided to share mine through it as well. I am drawn to Tribal Tattoos and found these wonderful representations of the Moon and the Panther and collaged them...I really love how it turned out.
Black Panther has been with me since a very young age. Only recently have I come to understand that "the early life experiences of one with whom Black Panther walks will never be "easy," and mine hasn't been, but my "Inner Strength", another gift from Panther has helped me overcome. I resonate with all of Panther's gifts but the one that stands out the most...is "Openhearted" in other words I "tell it like it is"...and that has been a gift and a curse...cos' there are some who don't like that about me. People either love me or hate me and that's okay cos' the gift of being a "Truth Seer" ( having a keen insight into the reasoning, actions and motives of others) has confirmed why they don't like me. I been finding it interesting how some gifts can be both negative and positive ones and have been learning a lot.
I also completed my 12th face today..
