... exploring in my creativity further in 2022



28 February 2011

Creative Tuesday - It was the angel's bedtime...

and she fell fast asleep on her irresistibly soft pillow-top cloud. Immediately she started dreaming of....


poker playing sheep?

Who knew!!??
(Initial pencil sketch)

Was I dreaming when this popped out of my head as I thought about Mr. Toast's Creative Tuesday theme of Bedtime? Who knows!? (It sure surprised me!)

I hope all of you, my wonderful art friends, have a great almost two weeks. It is extremely likely that I will  be out of touch as I am leaving soon on vacation and then have guests arriving immediately upon my return!  See you at Sunday Sketches on March 13th. 

And stay tuned - the big debut of what Kristin and I have been plotting is March 18th! Save the date! We hope you will come play with us!!

    lol, Eva, not very restful, if you think about it! But certainly creative. They are having a fine time.

    Very cute and creative. Sheep instead of dogs playing poker. Have a great vacation and I will be checking to see what you and your friend have going on.

    oh this is lovely. I like your version of the sheep. I guess that is what they do when they don't have to be jumping fences :)

    Oh, I'm looking forward to whatever the announcement is.

    "poker playing sheep"?! Haha. Funny, EVA. Cute. Thanks for being bold there and going with whatever came to mind. This will certainly stand out in the montage later today. :)

    Hope your vacation is going well.
