Copics And Zentangles

I'm back to Painting and Drawing, & it feels good.
I almost always sketch a few witches or just female faces throughout each month.
Lately, I have been finishing these sketches in Copics
or ink & graphite, as ACEOs.  
I thought I would share them.

Then, I got interested in Zentangles.
If you are unfamiliar with this term, Zentangles are
delightful drawings with a multitude of different designs,
textures, shapes, tones.
Not usually do they have faces or people in them, but
sometimes they do -- and for me, these feel right.

I have been playing around






I have been playing around with some new creations.  I do love working with wool -- dyeing, felting, hand-stitching. 
I decided that I would take a break from punch needle for a while and make a few bunnies.

I usually send a small handmade thank-you item to people who purchase my creations.  This bunny was what started a bunny explosion in my studio.
Funny, bunnies really do multiply!

 After I made about 5 other little bunny heads, I moved on to this little prim rabbit.
He was so fun to create.  I even played with lightly grudging him for a worn, well-loved appearance.
I imagine him going off a-courting with his plump carrot.  As I said, bunnies do multiply and he wants to do his part.

Next, I thought I would show a little valentine-y thank you item I made with some wool.  I tucked a small box of conversation hearts inside.
 I also did finish two punch needle works.  I'll show them soon. 
Thanks for stopping by!

Copics - I can't stop!

Hello, again. This is just a quick post to share glimpses of what I have been busy doing lately.

Yup, more Copic marker ACEOs. I really love these alcohol ink markers now. In fact, after I finish this post, I am going to try coloring on some fabric!


Truly, I cannot stop. Is there an Alcohol Inks Anonymous? ;-)
