Stumbled on the U.K. artist Edward Monkton’s website the other day and fell in love with his sense of humor and simple line drawings. Check it out, I guarantee you will smile…and what better way to end the week?

It is light that reveals, light that obscures, light that communicates. It is light I “listen” to. ~John Sexton

“breezy” wordless wednesday
The website Illustration Friday gives people a topic every week and you illustrate it using any medium. It’s designed to jump start creativity at any and all skill levels. I started doing it because I was in a long term creative funk and it really helped get those juices flowing again. As my mom got sicker, and I got busier with my iStock photography, I stopped participating. Yesterday I felt like doing something just for fun and did another George collage. I’ve done a whole series about you-know-who on my Tales of George blog. Okay, no more words, this is Wordless Wednesday afterall

You all know what a sucker I am for on-line generators and quizzes. Every time I find a fun new website I think that’s it, I must have seen them all and then I stumble on another…and another….and another. And I don’t spend all that much time on-line either, honest! As a matter of fact, last week I finally finished my feverish work on novel #3 and entered it in the ABNA contest. When I got up today I realized that this is the first day in many many months where I really feel like my time is my own. This weekend I even went to the craft store and bought stuff to make my future granddaughter a gift. I haven’t had the time , energy, or motivation to make something simply for the joy of creating in a long time and it really feels good. Anyhoo, the latest website. During Obama’s campaign a street artist named Shepard Fairey designed a poster (now somewhat controversial) that became very popular. I made the bookbabie poster at a neat website based on Fairey’s art called obamiconme. It’s free, no downloads, and after you set up an account it saves all your posters. Check it out, even if you didn’t vote for you-know-who, it’s still a lot of fun

The Long Goodbye
wordless wednesday

Wordless Wednesday contribution this week is one of my recent doodles. We’re taking mom from the hospital to an extended care facility today to see if she can do a little rehab and get some strength back. I saw one of my iStock photos on a window company TV commercial, how wild is that? Too bad I only made a few bucks from the sale, oh well, it was still exciting to see it flash across the screen!
