Hi there!

Summer is drawing to a close, so I'm back on the internet again. Although I plan on spending less time here, I'm also curious as to what everyone's been up to :-)

I had such a great summer, enjoying the wonderful and exceptional weather, the long lazy days, reading books by my favorite authors, and yes, also drawing a bit. I didn't paint, I just didn't feel like it, and I even had to force myself to draw. Initially that is. Now I'm having fun trying to draw a little bit every day. I'm totally back into doodling. I'm planning on making a calendar with doodles, I already have 12 drawings, but they're all in different stages of progress, with none completely finished yet.

Here are some things that I did finish:

sketch ... (graphite and coloured pencils)

 and another one in my art journal with gelli-printed pages (graphite)

And here's a doodle that I did finish (not for my calendar):


And that's all I have to show for now!

Except for the funnies and thinkies of course. Enjoy ;-)
















Linking to Paint Party Friday, and hoping to see lots of people there!

Thanks for your visit! Wishing you much joy today, and a happy and relaxing weekend!
Take care ♥ ♥ ♥

  3. So glad to see you back. I have missed you. These faces are amazing. I love the first one with the eyelashes. My favorite funny this time is the ipad and the fly. I cracked up. Come see what I have been up to all summer. I am getting ready for an art exhibit on my leather sculpts.

  7. it's always a treat to see your varied art Denise! Fab doodle art. And I get the "enjoy summer" thing and maybe not doing so much art or spending so much time on social media. Plenty of time for all that when we're stuck indoors in winter.Thanks for the funnies too, and happy PPF!

  12. as always I love these posts so much... the last image might be printable for over my desk. As to eating a political leader... well there is the issue of indigestion, and not knowing where he's been, just saying.

  14. Sounds like you had a wonderful summer. The weather here was great, too. I'm just getting back into the swing of being on the internet as well. The school holidays are such a busy time for me. I never can get a minute to do anything. Wonderful drawings and doodles. You have a very unique style.
