Leftovers From 2010

Happy New Year Everyone!

I am really trying to clean up anything 'unfinished' from 2010 and thought I should at least post a few of the most recent ACEO's I did in 2010. December was CRAZY for me (as I am sure it has been for many!!) so the one way I could make sure to always create was to carry my little kit with blank ACEO cards and my Micron ink pen...ready to use at any down-time away from my studio. Let's just say there was A LOT of pen-and-ink work in December! Not a bad thing though. I really love pen work and I love ACEO's, so it was a successful month, too.
Blessings to ALL!

August SWAP - Mermaids

I have been waiting to be able to post this for about a week or so now, and finally, I get to! The August SWAP recently took place and the subject matter for the swap was Mermaids. I had just joined the group and thought, what the heck, I'm gonna jump right in and join in on the swap! Really glad I did. It was great fun! My first ACEO (ATC) swap actually.

This is the mermaid that I did and swapped out, which was done with pen and india ink and watercolors. I knew I was on the right track when my 5 year old, Nathaniel, came to my drawing table and said "Wow Mom...that Mermaid painting is really good". When your kids like what you do...nothing else matters! LOL.
