| I love colored pencils all nice and sharp! The possibility that lies on their tips...endless! |
I have been needing to tap my artistic side lately...you know the old fashioned kind, where the pencil hits the paper...and you just create. Sometimes I get to stuck on the computer, and forget how much joy it brings to start with an idea and see where the pencil takes you. I love print and pattern, and find inspiration everywhere.....Especially in vintage and antique textiles, china, and embroidery. Yesterday, I went up to my sewing/guestroom/studio (trying to make it more of a studio...that is another one of THE projects:) and was inspired by a vintage pillowcase that I have.

Funny, how a little inspiration can take you in a whole different direction. I turned on the newest installment of
The Skirted Roundtable with Suzanne Reinstein and just drew and colored. There is a little part of me that would love to design my own textiles someday...I am a graphic designer after all:)

Now that was fun. I have to do more of this:)
