There has been a little flurry of activity here in the last few weeks, but unfortunately it hasn’t yielded a lot of blog / craft projects. We have decided to put our house up for sale. This means a lot of little touch up/clean up projects around my house and a lack of posts and new projects getting started!

But that doesn’t mean I don’t feel like working on something. I just don’t have much to show for it…

I took a bit of quiet time out this week to play with drawing and painting materials—something close to me that I haven’t personally done in a long, long time.

I can’t say I created anything but a mess, but I enjoyed it anyway. I would really like to find more time to brush up on my skills again. Here are some of my silly little ‘practice’ projects.

The last thing I did do that I sort of liked was to draw an old fashioned lightbulb (copied from this) onto a dark canvas… it turned out okay… I’d like to work on another version. I am so out of practice drawing.
