http://shigella.livejournal.com/730962.html
Striving to be what I wish to be thought to be. The attention just encourages her. The National - Fake Empire. I have three pieces showing at Robbin Gallery. In their March Madness show! I received an Award of Excellence for my painting Sibling Rivalry. No one called or emailed me from the gallery. I planned to go to the opening reception to pick up the work. Then I could see the other art and make some social connections with local artists. Posted on Mar. 9th, 2013 at 09:48 pm. I wish I had been at pizz...

Pattern for a slightly fierce but friendly really Dragon. - Lucyravenscar Crochet Creatures
http://heavens-hellcat.livejournal.com/807.html
Pattern for a slightly fierce but friendly really Dragon. June 8th, 2007. I've now written this pattern out in a more standard way, and changed a few minor things. In particular I've made the wings stronger so they will stick out better. The new version is too long to post here, but you can download the pattern from Ravelry: http:/ www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib. You can also see photos of the new Fierce Little Dragon at my Flickr: http:/ www.flickr.com/photos/96575205@N. Use a 3.5mm (E) hook. 5 sc in ring...

Amanda M. Downs: Illustrating a Point
http://amdownsart.blogspot.com/2012/08/illustrating-point.html
Friday, August 24, 2012. Some people have been kind enough to call me a fine artist. I've always called myself an illustrator. I'm not sure what the difference is. All I know is that whatever type of work I do, I try to give it my very best. Art has been my life.". I suspect this is to make their jobs easier, not for the betterment of Art in general. I also love the stark contrast of pen and ink and the warm fluidity of watercolor paint. I love spending hours stippling, cross-hatching and shading. For me...

Amanda M. Downs: Mixed media
http://amdownsart.blogspot.com/2012/07/mixed-media.html
Saturday, July 7, 2012. It's been a long time since I made an update. After the intense preparation time spent on the gallery show last winter, I took a break from painting to study some other interests and to let my energy renew. I drew my friend Amina during this time, just to play and enjoy making something again. Mixed media on tinted paper. Amanda M. Downs. July 24, 2012 at 9:11 AM. Both are excellent works. I think you succeeded in capturing the cat without descending into sentimental goo. I am Ama...

Fire in the Hand: New Business Card Idea!
http://fireinthehand.blogspot.com/2011/07/new-business-card-idea.html
Fire in the Hand. Diary/Sketchbook/Forum for my ongoing exploration of the boundaries of nature, philosophy, and function in art. What moves me? Where am I going? How am I growing? We are all creatures evolving and revolving. Monday, July 25, 2011. New Business Card Idea! Mimosa S. J. Greer. July 25, 2011 at 10:08 PM. I like that you are using your pottery for the images. I cant seem to click on the fern image for a larger version. I might have more comments later, but its late. Mimosa S. J. Greer.

Carmen Medlin - Blog of Art and LIfe: She emerges with art!
http://carmenkeysart.blogspot.com/2010/05/she-emerges-with-art.html
May 11, 2010. She emerges with art! Finally, finally I have some art to share. My last name is going to be changing soon :D so I am still figuring out all the logistics of that and unsure what to do with this blog! Since its url has my maiden name on it. Thoughts, anyone? Since my last name is changing, I thought I'd also change some other usernames that needed changing too, such as my Ebay username. it's now "yarmalade." Just so you know. Anyhow, I'm all about the cute these days:. As for the name chang...

http://carmenkeysart.blogspot.com/2010/06/married.html
Jun 23, 2010. So the big day was Sunday, June 20! I'm now Mrs. Medlin. :) The ceremony was lovely, our friends worked so hard to make it a beautiful day. We had a good time with my immediate family, too (it was a small gathering) and my kitty Kiba was finally able to move down here with me! My computer is still being fixed, so I'm still typing on David's computer. I have so much to do regarding website banner changes and such! Well goodnight all, I might just have it in me to make some cookies this eveni...

Carmen Medlin - Blog of Art and LIfe: Oldies but Goodies
http://carmenkeysart.blogspot.com/2010/03/oldies-but-goodies.html
Mar 4, 2010. Sadly, the local gallery here that had a bunch of my artwork in it had to close - but the good news is that all of those paintings (and a few prints) are now available to all of you. I've put everybody in my Etsy shop - Click here to visit my shop! You might find some unexpected old friends in there. Well, the big news is that I got engaged! Which is why I've been so scarce. Spring is coming and it is about time to think about VEGETABLES again for the garden! That is a lovely painting. Yeah,...

My studio is gathering dust. With full-time jobs, a new baby and a… - Striving to be what I wish to be thought to be.
http://shigella.livejournal.com/731412.html
Striving to be what I wish to be thought to be. The attention just encourages her. I keep a sketchbook nearby in case I get five minutes to draw in the midst of this beautiful chaos. It’s not a great triumph to sketch something but it makes me feel good to know I’m still practicing and plotting art in small ways. Posted on Oct. 21st, 2014 at 11:10 am. I always love your drawings and sketches, and I feel like you need a reminder that they are not in any way inferior to your paintings.
