Hello Friends,

Here is what I did last Sunday afternoon.

An elephant (which I sketched from a painting I did for my daughter a few years ago.)  This Sumi-e ink drawing is a little different from the painting I did.  Here’s the Sumi-e ink drawing of my elephant.  It was a quick sketch (that back right leg looks a little skinnier than the rest!)  Ha, ha!

And a couple of Cardinal birds.  One is puffy from the chilly air.

I was looking in a bird book for this one and did a rough sketch of two different photos.  I am planning to do a watercolor of a Cardinal in honor of my mom.  She loved them even though we never lived anywhere where they could be found.

And now for a little of bit of self-promotion which I rarely do.

I had the original painting of “Grace’s Elephant” printed on 5×7 cards that I am still selling for $5.  I only have a few left.  I have not gotten re-prints of any of my cards yet.  So I occasionally sell some and have used some to accompany gifts I have given people.  The two card prints I am currently out of are the ones titled “Sherri’s Ocean” and “Danny Boy” (the horse.)  They were my best sellers besides “Grace’s Elephant.”  I still have some of those left, though, because I ordered two dozen of those to begin with.  A lot of my daughter’s school friends wanted her elephant a few years ago.  🙂  The other cards I have are of the blue hydrangeas acrylic painting I did, a pink rose painting, and one called George’s Alpenglow.

If you would like to purchase any of my art, I have an art page on Facebook.  You may message me on there about anything you may want.  I do not have any online payment plan set up, however.  I would have to get your address and give you mine to send me a check.  Unfortunately, I haven’t figured out how to do all of that yet.  I will have a lot more time to do all of this when my daughter graduates from high school in May!!

Anyway, here is the link:
