A couple of days ago I finally took the plunch and signed up for the She Art Workshop by Christy Tomlinson. She is one creative lady! I have been on a shopping spree to gather supplies (and of course all the supplies are usually double the US price, so not fair!) and I should be ready to start today. I seriously cannot wait!

Yesterday it was a nice warm day and so the kids wanted to swim in the pool. I didn’t feel well and didn’t want to go swimming, so I sat next to the pool with my sketch pad and my Faber Castell Pitt artist pen doodling away. This is what I accomplished while the kids had a swim:

And you know what brightens my day? My new products!
