A Neighborhood of Crums

Here are the frames I created for the upcoming Crum Family Reunion. I designed them and cut all the pieces on my jig saw. I then painted them. I hope my family likes them!

Pine trees, wild cats and indians!

Here is a recent drawing of a Native American. I have a lot of respect of some of these tribes from years past. I think sometimes they had everything figured out, and that those that came in and took over the land could have learned something from them.




I am painting all of the pieces for the Crum Family Reunion gift. Grover wants to help.

Good Evening...

Hope I sleep well tonight...

This made me laugh.

Illustration Friday Topic: Drifting

I drew this for Illustration Friday this week. I was thinking about how we change throughout our lives, sometimes into people we never planned on being, in situations we never thought we would be in. Sometimes it is disappointing, sometimes we learn a lot about ourselves. All I know is that life is an adventure and a journey. It is never boring if we look closely and have gratitude. Life has so much to offer that we never would have imagined.

These are simple drawings from real life observation. I will be creating a pattern from them.

Summer Loungin'...

A drawing as I kick my feet up - a view to the summer sky. I love the relaxing and active days of summer.
