New Art Drawing

Happy Wednesday! I started a new drawing last month. I saw this gorgeous picture of model turned fashion industry leader, Bethann Hardison in Essence Magazine. I loved her head wrap and the character in her face. She looked so joyful and even glowed in the photograph.

I worked on it for a while and am pleased with how she turned out. Not sure if I am finished with it yet but here is what I have done so far. Take a look.




The hardest parts for me to draw are the mouth, lips and teeth. I feel proud that they look close to the picture. Practice makes perfect they say. So, that is what I plan on doing.

Have you ever tried drawing? Leave a comment below if you do. It has been one of the many surprise interest I have developed over the years.

Well, I hope you are enjoying whatever creative activities you are doing. Keep it going all and have a great day!

  1. Your drawing is beautiful, Kelly. In Jr. High I took a class in Art from a teacher who was a good friend of my dad. Dad told her that I really wanted to take Band, but it meant giving up Art for the following year. The teacher told him, "She might be more successful in Band". LOL That was the end of the Art classes! I think I am crafty, but not at all artistic.

  3. Your drawing is stunning!
    Her smile makes me want to smile
    I have done a few drawings...but more characters than real people.

Our Romantic Anniversary Dinner

Happy Thursday! I hope your week has been great.  Today I wanted  to share some of our wedding anniversary pictures with you.  Last Sunday, my hubby arranged for us to have a romantic dinner at the very place where we had our wedding reception.  I was so excited when I found out that they set up a table for us to have the whole banquet room to ourselves.  How great was that??? The restaurant is right on the bay and has the most spectacular  views.  So when we arrived they had a table set up for us right by the windows so we could get an even better view.  They had the rest of the room set up for an event but I still could remember how it looked the night of our wedding with the lights and the dance floor.  Plus the left side of the room is nothing but windows so you can see more of this secluded bay. So as we dined we watched the sunset and it was so fabulous.  Even at night all the lights from the surroundin...

Happy Hearts

Today I will be sharing one a several painting I recently finished. This one is one of my favorites. I wanted to try two faces and just love how they turned out. It was fun going crazy with the multi-colored background. The hearts were made using my new favorite thing to make from toilet paper rolls- STAMPS.  I saw them on Julie Balzer's blog. Toilet Paper Tube Stamps  Then I used my fingers to paint the inside of the hearts. So neat! Take a look and I hope you feel the love and joy in this piece. Aren't the afro's fabulous!!! LOL! They were my first try and look pretty darn good. The little girls afro puff is so cute and reminds me of the ones I had as a child.   I love the hearts on their clothes. I used my stencil to make the design then painted around just to show the insides. Hope you enjoyed and come back this week to see some other paintings. Have a good one!

Cupcakes Anyone?

Happy Fall! Last Summer I took a cupcake decorating class at Michael's and I loved it. It was really great to learn the basics. This was all new to me and I was excited to try it out.  All Summer I wanted to make more but the weather got too hot to bake so I had to wait. Finally we had a break with some cooler temps and I was able to get back to these yummy treats.   I made two of my favorite colors: happy sunny yellow and hot pink. Oh, and they tasted good too.        Have you tried cupcake or cake decorating before? Isn't it like art? Maybe that is why I love it. Now I can't wait to make some more. Thanks for stopping by!
