MSED: Bird a Day #108 Flying Geese

Here's a quick little doodle based on this tangle called Flying Geese (scroll down for directions).

I think is looks rather Christmas-y to me. I am also working on a bigger project, a real painting. Well see how it goes. I wish I had better acrylics...

Pen and gel pen on paper.

MSED: Bird a Day #107 CD Cover

My daughter Sarah, left one of her music CDs at my house the other day. It had no cover. Poor naked CD. She already has the music on her ipod I'm sure, and doesn't really need the CD but I just had to cover the poor thing up before it got scratched. I used this video to create it. (turn down the sound, it's strictly a visual demo and the sound track is somewhat annoying)

Sarah! Come home any time and get your CD! xo

Watercolor paper, watercolor, pen, and gel pen

MSED: Bird a Day #88 Dreaming Garden

Black and white tangle sketch, bird weirdness. Now I have to buy new micron pens. :)

Just a water color or two

After all the weirdness of the past few MSED bird posts I decided to do something that I wanted to do. This first one is an attempt at capturing the beautiful peonies that I inherited from my sister. (I really want to take a class on technique.)

 This one is a "Tangle Pattern" doodle. The foreground pattern is called Oke and the background is called Hybrid. If you would like to learn how to draw these patterns and many more check this link out.

I use and alter a lot of the patterns on this site when I draw.
