I've been doing some drawing lately

When I was in high school I used to do a lot more art. I guess it was because I had an art class everyday (during school) for 3 years. I had that time set everyday to be creative. Now I have more important things to occupy my time; like my hubby and my 2 cute kiddos, and even some fun friends and a sister close by.
For Christmas this year Jevan and I decided not to buy each other presents, but somehow I knew he wouldn't stick to that. I had no idea what he was secretly getting me so I decided to do a drawing for him. I really never sketched much back in the day, it used to be mostly painting. But I thought I'd give it a try. So this is what he got for Christmas:
After my drawing for Jevan turned out, I thought I'd give something a bit harder a try and it turned out alright too. I think I will do one of Jade on her blessing day too. Maybe make it a thing I will do for my kids. (look at that handsome, happy boy! I just love him to pieces!)My mother in law saw my other sketches and ask me to draw the whole Weeks family for Merv's B-day. I had 20 days to draw 36 ish people. I gave it a try and after 3 people i said forget it. So then I decided to give a Merv and Clara Jean sketch a try. Much easier then 36 people. lol! She is giving this 11x17 sketch to him for his b-day now. I am pleased with the way it turned out. Here are some pics of the sketch in progress.

  4. Those are so good! I always thought you were such a great artist. We need to hang out. Has Jevan's schedule changed? Riley will only be home on weekends for this semester, so if Jevan has a weekend off let us know! Or how about just me and you hang out with your kids to make it easier and more likely.
