Easter bird

As was mentioned in a previous post, my darling mother commissioned me to make her some Easter cards. I experimented with a few ideas (yes, I know that this is a surprise), and we settled on a simple embroidered design.













These were a lot of fun to make; and while they were somewhat time-consuming, it wouldn't have been too bad had I not forgotten that March was almost over. (I made 31. I know that's a weird number.)

They are finished, though, and are being filled with my mother's beautiful handwriting and mailed hither and yon.


On an unrelated note, I have found free music that is pretty.






I like it. Maybe you will like it, too. 












Easter is fast approaching. Remember how much God loves you!

nineteenth bird

Still no clay, but I'm looking at it and thinking about it--which actually does mean something.


Create a bridge. Connect two things in a creative way. It could be small enough for an amoeba or big enough for an elephant to cross it.


Well, rather than make a bridge, I decided to think about connections. After a lot of hemming and hawing, I remembered that music connects people. Rather than torture anyone with music that I made myself, I thought I would "draw" two different people connected by music.


I'm playing with mediums and styles. Crayon + detail = not so good. It looked (slightly) better before I colored it, but I didn't think to document it half way through. In any case, here you go.
 
I'll let you fill in which music you think they're listening to. Also, drawing seated people is hard.
