I LOVE NY
When i work on scrapbook pages of places i've been to, i try to find sketches other people have drawn so i can maybe use them to help with what i want to do. I very often end up finding really cool stuff, and well, here i am sharing...
I L.O.V.E NY
i found this view ( from the Empire State Building) a while ago...
i was going to NY this week, but instead i am at home: sick.
this is my way of trying to virtually travel and enjoy NY
grrrrrrrrrrrr

Gift ideas for kids: "Drawing: For the Artistically Undiscovered"

Just got back from a girls day out with my niece Carmen (6).
She L·O·V·E·S books,
so i got her this marvelous and fun one:
Drawing: For the Artistically Undiscovered
by Quentin Blake and John Cassidy
If you have kids, this is a must!!!
About the book: A sketchbook with training wheels from Quentin Blake, one of the most celebrated illustrators in the world today. Inspirational artwork, shameless cheerleading, helpful technique tips and lots of what-to-draw ideas share each page with plenty of white space reserved for the use of the artist-to-be. Included with each book are an artist-quality sketch pen and two watercolor pencils, one red, one black.
A little Sneak Peak:
