The Boy and The Girl

Hello friends!
Thanks for the all the great Audrey Hepburn movie suggestions!
I think i'm going to sit down and watch every one of them. :)
i'm serious, i was so inspired after My Fair Lady
all i wanted to do was paint and think and then paint some more.

Today was great; finished up a few mini projects,
also got a valentine order today, so was getting a Valentine ready to ship out,
which was quiet fun. Oh, also, i did this painting tonight. i hope you like it.
i don't know, there is something about it that makes me smile.

Oh!! Lastly, i finally mixed the song i wrote with my good friend Christie Dupree!
I wrote the music and she wrote the lyrics and sang it.
i've been writing a fairytale story in my head for years,
and the characters are based on people in my own life.
Christie's character's name is Camille Queen of the Trees,
so that's what the song is about.
Hope you like it!
i'm off to dream land!
Night.

EDIT: Christie just Joined the Blogging Community!!!!!!

The Siren Inspiration 3.0

Hey there, my friends. How have you been?
You all have been amazing! Such nice and great comments and questions; i've been trying to get back to comment to all of them,
so if i miss your question, try to let me know. :)
Ok, so over the last couple weeks, my good friend from the other side of the world, Miss Sophie Ward,
has been blessing me with daily new Chapters from our Collaboration Siren Art Project.
So i've been reading it over and listening to the wonderful songs my incredible friend Stacy Dupree has written for it,
and my brain has been going wild!!
It's killing me not getting to share the stories and the song with you...
but soon, i promise, soon!
i think it is going to be the most beautiful project i've ever done by far!
I may not be able to share the words or the songs yet,
so i think i will share a few pages out of the 350 page inspiration book i threw together for the project,
to give us a vision before we had one. This section is the inspiration for the second to last section of the story. :)
Hope you like it!

You all get enough sleep and rest to start the week?
i sure didn't. haahha.
i'm running on fumes.
Was working all weekend.
Well, the drawing today is one I did of my brother.
We were both sitting across from each other drawing each other.
i drew it with a pen on cardboard and then water colored it and finished it off with chalk pastel.
It was a very fun relaxing night.
We started drawing after our nightly Mario Cart session! Woot, woot!
Hope you all are doing great,

Lisa Place Cheerleading

Hey, hey, hey Friends,
Wow, it's early in the morning,
Thank you all for all the lovely comments today, kinda overwhelming,
and thanks for you who added the bloglovin code to the blog.
It was a trip to click on your sites and it was there looking back. ;)
Just finished up this painting of Lisa Olsson of the great blog Lisaplace.
i think it was a week or two back that she posted a picture of her and her friend at a cheer competition.
And I'm not sure if it was how interesting the picture was to draw, that caused me to want to draw it so much,
or it might have been the fact i did Cheer many, many moons ago,
but i really like how it turned out.
i hope you like it. :)

p.s. If you don't believe i was was a cheerleader for a brief part of my life,
