A gouache painting I made for one of my nieces who loves to paint. Here's the video process of me painting if you'd like to watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sF6TBBRdTQk
Gouache Painting of Sleeping Fox
February 2022 Playlist
The photo was taken of my oldest daughter ten years ago. Can you believe that? She's going to be 20 in a few days here. February has been a busy month with trying to decide which method of bullet journaling (bujo) to go with. I've been trying to get down from about four notebooks to... Continue Reading →
Snow Day (Photos) and Unboxing Video of 3 Notebook Covers
Daughter had a snow day today, which means no school. She's both excited and bummed. Excited because she can relax and not worry about doing homework, and bummed because she spent an hour yesterday making Crepes for French class and now she'll have to eat them by herself (and with me of course) or throw...

Loveland and Valentine’s Day
The day before Valentine's Day, husband and I went to Loveland. This was our second time going since the new year. Husband didn't snowboard as much this time.

Winter Snow

I remember when I first found WordPress and wasn't sure if this would be a good platform to move my blog to. Initially, I was paying another hosting site for a website and... Continue Reading →
Loveland Snowboarding
In January, husband went snowboarding in Loveland. He went by himself because I'm not a snowboarder or a skiier. I have been meaning to share photos he took of this little trip. It's all so breathtaking.
Practice Matte Painting
An old frozen rusty ship matte painting. I followed the Youtube tutorial here. For the skyline, I used this photo I took of the Miami skyline during a family cruise to the Bahamas a couple years ago. Other photos used from a free photo stock site: I began by making a sketch. Then, I layered... Continue Reading →
Frosty Pine
I've taken photos of frosts on the pine tree before (here) but I couldn't resist. I processed these using ACR instead of directly in Photoshop.
It’s Like She Knows
Teddy, the family Keeshond seems to know more than we think she does. Even though she's never made a trip to visit my dad, grandma, and sister at the hospital, it's as though she knows something's up. This week has been hard.
