Day 16
Busy day today, I should be able to finish this tomorrow after work. It’s pencil and pen on paper, worked from a photo I took of a statue in one of the local cemeteries.

Day 13
I bought a small print from the op shop in a 4×4 inch frame. It’s a print and unnumbered, I don’t work over limited editions or one of a kind pieces. I took the image out of the backing and

Day 12
Today is a knitting day because I’ve been watching subtitled films and it’s near impossible to read and draw at the same time. The yarn is from Wisdom and is called Poems but I haven’t got a clue what the

Day 10 – work in progress
I’m still working on it, with far less time than I would like.

Day 9 – work in progress
There’s nothing like a shift or two at work to make me fall behind in documenting my process. The angel is a bit green because she is covered in moss.

Day 8 – work in progress
This will take a little longer than the other drawings so there might be a few WIP shots.

Day 5: Little Black Clouds
Another quick “shop the stash” hit today. When I first saw these gray shell teardrops, they reminded me of rain. I thought they’d look great as cascade-style earrings (you know, the kind that feature several teardrops or briolettes attached along

Day 4: Shopping the Stash
Had to do this one on the quick! Yesterday, I mentioned having a problem with follow-through when it comes to all those great ideas that come while you’re in the supply shops, running your hands over everything. I bring stuff

Day 4
I wanted a moving gif to use as a signature so I made this using GIMP. I realise now that it’s probably a bit large to use but it’s still a thing that I made today.

Day 3: Ideas & Follow-Through
Complicated wire wrapping isn’t the only thing I need to conquer. One of the other things I really need to work on is follow-through. I love to go to supply shops and touch all the pretties and imagine how I’d

Day 2
Just an ink and watercolour silhouette. 4×6 inches on watercolour paper. Time escapes me and I found myself working today when I thought I’d have time to play.

Day 2: More Modest Ambitions
After the last adventure, I thought I’d try something a little more modest. Besides, I had to do this in the wee hours of the beginning of Day 2 because I’m going to be otherwise occupied tomorrow/today/while the normal people

Day 1: Frick-Frackin’ Wire Wrappin’
Oh, wire wrapping, how you confound me. I’m pretty handy with most jewelry techniques. I can zone out and just meditate while I work, for the most part. But for some reason, elaborate wire wrapping just eludes me. I have

Day 1
It’s been a year since the last Thing A Day and I’m hoping that this time I will be a little more organised. I’m aiming to make one drawing a day for the entire month but there’s some wiggle room

Day Twenty-Nine- The End
It’s a little watercolour sketch of hamster for a friend. I’ll finish it later. Thing A Day is something that I joined at the last minute and I enjoyed it a lot. Next year I’ll be prepared with materials

Day Twenty-Eight – Cat Toy
It’s a bit funny looking but it’s full of catnip and my kitties love it.

Day Twenty-Five- Painting
This is a painting from last year, I’ve just been touching it up so that I can apply for an exhibition. I’ve mainly been adding light tones to it.

Day 28: Mini Painting
I worked on the shading of the horse today, deepening the shadows, adding some highlights and trying to add a bluish tinge to the metal. Still needs work though.

Day 28 – Preemie Baby Bootie
Ok, it’s not supposed to be a preemie bootie – it turned out that way, cause I crochet so tight. I need to use a bigger hook to make normal baby sized ones. I had some yarn left over from
