Praise The Lord

 

This is a picture of a tiny little

Artist Trading Card

that I drew.

 

I see so many flaws when

it's blown up like this.

 

It'll be back to the drawing board

for some touch ups and to

finish the back.

 

I hope you find very few flaws,

and lots of "Hallelujah"

 moments today.

 

Nehi Grape

I thought I'd post a picture of a piece

 that I'd started a while ago and set aside.

 

I don't normally work that way.

 

I usually start something and see it to completion.

 

Keep in mind, I'm referring to my artwork

and not my laundry.

 

I thought maybe by seeing her here

I'd be inspired to finish her.

 

She has a long way to go.

 

I'll let you know if I set her back

to rest in a cozy file, or I attack her

with more pens and markers.

 

 

 

Quote Drawings

I love thought provoking quotes. 

In fact, I have four composition

notebooks filled with my favorites. 

I've decided to combine my love for quotes with

my love for drawing and art. 

This is what I came up with for starters. 

My daughter's already laid claim to the first one. 

The following is a quote I've often heard Greg Koukl (Stand to Reason) repeat. 

It reminds me about my responsibility to do the heavy lifting when it comes to studying to show myself approved to God as a workman who doesn't need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth.

Please see 2 Timothy 2:15 and 1 Peter 3:15.

Untangling the Cords

I have an old tin popcorn bucket under my sink where I keep our hair dryer and curling irons. 

It gets a little tiring pulling out the hair dryer only to find it's tangled around every styling implement you own. Especially so when you're in a hurry to get ready in the morning. 

It makes no difference if I wrap up the cords after every use, unless everyone in my household is doing the same. Can you hear my throat clearing in an accusatory manner?

My solution was to save a few empty toilet paper rolls to keep the little buggers separated. I covered them with scrap paper and. . . voila!

I know you're thinking, "This lady has WAY too much time on her hands!" 

It really didn't take me but 10 minutes total. I let the paper dry in place with clothes pins and I think it's a pretty cute solution to an irritating problem. 

Now the question is whether or not the rest of the family will cooperate.
