Park Trip

A few weeks ago I had went to the park again (haven't been back since sadly). It was then that I took pictures of all those mushrooms. I couldn't believe all those different types of mushrooms!! I was in my glory :D But here are a few other things I managed to snap when I was going "Oh and another mushroom over there!!"
Oh and some random caterpillars I found in my yard, they got thrown over the fence in case the dog tried to stick his nose on one and get stung.
I really like using the macro setting on the camera :)

New Angle

So, I have been eye balling the My Little Pony cartoon style for awhile now. I love the show (yes I watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic) and I think the animation style is just adorable. I figure it, that I needed some inspiration to keep drawing and why not start something new. Also, there are all kinds of Pony crossovers, and those fascinate me the most. I'm trying my hand at my own crossovers.

As for this bird of mine...

Holy Batman, yes I finally started it! This darn thing makes me so nervous, this here is almost fours hours and that is all the farther I got. I was thinking of another bird after this but I don't know now. :D

CAKE!

Sooo yesterday was my birthday, I turned twenty-seven. Part of me doesn't care, and a small part is saying "eww". We baked a cake in the morning, then went out bowling that evening.
The cake we made was a red velvet with chocolate icing. I swear this is the prettiest red I have ever seen!
Please don't mind the ooooold wall paper and counter colors :D
It's what delicious looks like.

So I am having artist...jitter...problem again. I think that's what I want to call it o.o I have a drawing ready to be colored, but can't get the nerve up to color it. I haven't done feathers in so long it makes me nervous. I can't even force myself to do practice bits! It's so sad :( Maybe I'll just go draw a pony and come back to it...

Bookmarks and 100th Post!

Holy Bejebus I made it to a hundred! Honestly when I started this blog, I didn't know where it was going to go or if it would even last very long. Here is to crossing my fingers and hoping for a hundred more!
So I discovered I had a LOT of material here to work with for bookmarks. I had this stash of cut out calendar pictures that I have no idea what I thought I was going to do with, but there they were. My goal is to only use what I already have for this, almost like recycling because I really don't want to start throwing things away. These are just the start of what I have. I have many more as I have started out with twenty of them cut out and hardly a dent in my pile of pictures. Snip snip.

From The Frost

"From The Frost"
6 in x 6 in
Colored Pencil and Water Color
on Bristol vellum

My only real regret on this is using a 2B pencil to draw it and it showing up like mad. I had no idea what to do once I realized the colored pencil wasn't going to cover it, so it's a lesson learned for next time :)

Already have started the next drawing up, and it's all Fuzzy Dragon's fault that it's a bird :P

Oh, and I'm making more bookmarks!
