My daughter is a star onstage in her high school plays, so I was thinking of her as I drew two little worms in their apple theater.  When Leah graduates this year I will miss seeing her and her friends in those high school productions.

A watercolor for Illustration Friday.

I haven’t been drawing much lately, been so busy it seems… but here I am again.  This little watercolor is for Illustration Friday’s word “Impossibility”.  I would love to be up in that hut… alone for a little while… but it seems like an impossibility….

Jumping Jack Flash

I found this wooden jumping jack yesterday at a church yard sale for a dollar.  Isn’t she cute?  Would she be called a Jumping Jill?  She’s stamped on the back with “AARFAC” which I’ve found out is the “Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Center” in Colonial Williamsburg.  Also stamped on the back is “handcrafted by Dudley and Emilie Fuller.  Thank you Dudley and Emilie Fuller, I love her.  She’s hanging in my kitchen, and my whole family loves her too.

This one’s for my friend Chuck. We were discussing dogs, and if we got one… what it would be. His dog would be a Vienna Sausage, with toothpick legs and peppercorn eyes. A red balloon would help him be part of the family… floating around the house…
