A Chip Off...

My MIL has this great childhood photo of Cody wearing an outfit that she made, one that she handed down to Connor when he was born.  I thought it would be meaningful to both her and Cody to capture Connor in the very same outfit, in the very same pose, at the same age.


The idea seemed wonderful, but co-operation from a cranky, active, 14 month old was anything but.  In the end, I settled for what seems more of a smirk than a smile.  Thanks goodness,  Grandmothers are the easiest sell.

Duckling - Weekly Sketch

Connor was a duckling for Halloween in tribute to his favorite toy...yellow rubber duckie. He was so cute that I had to sketch him.

Malaise - Weekly Sketch

Just a tad bit late getting this up for the week.  A quick burnt umber wash for a piece I'm considering in the future that started because I had too much paint left on my water brush.  Profound.
