crows

Last night i looked out my window to see the sunset, as i often do, and i was amazed to see hundreds of crows flying around! I didn't even know crows did this. There were so many of them - most of them landed on the roof, but there were a bunch in several trees in the distance. I tried to take a picture of them flying around, but that's hard to do when you don't have the flash on. They reminded me of bats. The way they all landed just outside our window sort of looked like a bad omen of some sort, but i like crows so maybe it's a good omen.

Russell enjoyed the show.

whoops

I am not doing very well updating my blog in this new year. I have been working on things - it's just that i haven't taken pictures of them yet. Hopefully that will come soon. In the meantime, here's a quick update on what i've been doing.

Chubbikins: Well, i have some new designs to share with you as well as new secret Chubbikin project. I think they're pretty darn cute! I will let you know when those guys are up in my shop.

Paper dolls: I am almost ready to print out my samples and mail them off! I just have to fix a few of them up in photoshop and put together the pages. I'm pretty happy with how they're coming out. Fingers crossed!

Other: I ordered some new cards that will hopefully get here soon so i can put them up in my shop for Valentine's day (oh boy, that's coming up quick isn't it?). I've decided i'm going to buy some colored inks. I get frustrated painting with watercolors sometimes because the colors get muddy. So i'm going to try to do some paintings and see how that works out. It'll work out fantastically i'm sure! Then, when i have some amazing new paintings, new paper dolls, and whatever else, i can work out a new design for my website. It needs an update! But i don't want to update until i have new work. Haha, so it might be a while before i have a new website. And on an unrelated note, i have at least 900 more songs to rate in my itunes library. Not making much headway with that. Oh well.

That's all for now folks!
