Welcome to my blog

If you enjoy finding a lot of different outlets for your creativity, then we may just be kindred spirits.
This blog is an outlet for my interest in miniatures, crochet, plastic canvas, and many other various arts and crafts.

I also love walking, taking digital photos, and most recently, have rediscovered an old love...bike riding! I purchased an amazing new bike, a comfy Townie by Electra this summer, and have been having a grand time exploring the area as though for the first time. It's like being a kid again!

If you enjoy any of these things too, pour a cup of coffee and tea, sit down, and join me.


Take care!

Snowy Sunset Digital Painting on Procreate

Snowy Sunset 

I was in an arty mood today and decided to follow a tutorial on Youtube, by James Julier.  I'm so glad I did; I love the way it came out! 

Snowy Sunset, followed a tutorial by James Julier 

I really love the colors of this, and the fact that it has snow in the shade and melted snow; bare land in the sun.  So cool! I'm getting a bit better at the trees. 

This painting would also be beautiful as a summer painting with water in the areas without snow, and along the rocks.   Maybe one day I'll be good enough to try that.

Procreate Art, Tulips

 Tulips, on Procreate

I followed a tutorial to make these pretty tulips in Procreate, on my Ipad today.  It's snowing and blowing and so cold, and I felt like drawing flowers in anticipation of spring, because it's still so far away, lol.

Happy New Year!

Can you believe it's 2022 already?  I can't; time goes by so quickly it seems. 

I wish you all good health and happiness in the year ahead. Stay safe!

Here is a little art that I did on Procreate/Ipad to ring in the New Year.

I really loved doing this Diamond Painting from Shein.  It was a gift for my Mom and Dad's 59th Anniversary.  You can find the DP here: Bird & Squirrel
