Thursday Art Date with Rain


Thursday Art Date With Rain
The Line Up
I am greeted with this little "Line Up" every day.  They all have body clocks that speak to them every morning at 6AM and evening at 5PM.  Chachie is the spokes person for the group.  He does all the talking while the others just sit there with their big eyed stare.  I bet every pet owner out there knows just what I am talking about :) This is a cartoon that lives with me :)




This combines my sketch with a public domain cartoon background.  If any of you have had fox in your neighborhood you probably know why I love them for their beauty and for their antics.  They are a wonderful part of our vast natural world.

Disney has come out with a new Dumbo movie, but the original Dumbo was born in 1941 just like me.  He, of course, was my first toy and my "blankie" for many years.  Believe it or not, I still have my original Dumbo though he is hardly recognizable at this point.  (Painted on Photoshop and framed in PicMonkey)

Anime
These were drawn by my 10 year old Granddaughter, Poppy. awesome, right?

I think that's it for this week.  I have to say it is fun being on Rain's Meme ... looking forward to next week already.  And, soon Micheal will be back ... Life is Good!

Sun and Moon


Sun





Moon




These are a combination of photography and graphic art.  All are from my archives since I didn't find Rain's Thursday Art  until recently.  I will try to be more original in the future ...

Scribble Picnic


Hearts 


Original


Well at least this time I drew and painted my lady, but then couldn't resist finding a background on the internet that would set her off.  Anyway if you can't read it, my heart in hand says "kindness, Love and honesty" ... three values that come from the heart.  I wish they were more prevalent than they are, but each of us can do our part to fill our lives with the kind of love and values that build happiness.  I know you  all have big hearts which is why I love coming here to share with you.

Scribble Picnic





Market




Original

Using multiple graphic art programs, I converted the original picture into a water color painting.  This picture is far to complicated to paint in a short time frame ... and I am not sure I could do it free hand even if I had the time.  Yes, this is cheating a bit, but the Sunday Night Street Market in Chiang Mai was  perfect for this prompt.  Hope you enjoy ...

Scribble Picnic


New Years Party


We celebrate New Years at home because there are too many crazies on the road.  We watch the New York count down and then the Chicago fireworks , drink a toast, share a kiss and go to bed.  Yes, midnight is past my bedtime and I am not worth much past the hour of eleven.  But then, each day following is a celebration of the New Year.  I wish you all a glorious, creative year :)

And, Thanks to Rain, I have my comments back, so please come see me and say hello :)

This art work is a combination of digital cut, paste, paint and the people and cats are drawn and digitally painted.

A Few of my Favorite Things :)

For those of you who have tried, but cannot leave a comment, I am so sorry.  Blogger has changed things while I was gone and not being tech savvy, I have no idea how to adjust my comments so they will be accepted.  I am trying to resolve this, but since I don't speak "computer", I don't understand what they are telling me when I do find answers.  I am one sad puppy ... and open to suggestion if anyone knows what to do.
