CreativeTherapy Catalyst 22

Oh my goodness! All the excitement of Art Unraveled got me off schedule in publishing the CreativeTherapy catalyst for this week, so here it is: What is your greatest accomplishment? Here is my response: Biggest accomplishment? This was hard to choose. From a professional and educational standpoint, I have accomplished a lot in my 40 [...]

One more Paris Post

One more post about Paris. While there, I did take care to relax a lot between activities. It’s a walking city, so I was glad to have my cane. But I needed to be very mindful about my energy. And so I spent a lot of time in our hotel room. There was not much [...]

France Travel Journal, Part 3

Here is the third installment of the Paris part of our trip to France. Grab yourself a cup of coffee or tea and settle in, since it’s a marathon! But there are actual drawings this time, so art abounds! And we’re off… So, after we got rained on – again – and headed to our [...]

CreativeTherapy – Catalyst 16

Have you been over to CreativeTherapy today? Catalyst 16 has been published and I hope you’ll take some time to read about what we all did with this week’s catalyst! To the right is the picture I drew for this week’s catalyst. Click on the image to see a larger version at the site and [...]

Post-treatment update; CreativeTherapy

Well, as usual, I’m completely wiped out from treatment. I woke this morning groggy, but I felt good for about an hour and a half. Then the fatigue smacked me down. So, here I sit, in front of the TV on the den couch with my MacBook. Yesterday I was ok for a short time [...]

Feeling creative again

Thank you all for your kind notes and thoughts over the past few days. They mean a lot. I spent Wednesday with Angie and her son Max. Max came over to swim and Angie and I got to do some artwork. I was not quite up for doing much, so I just doodled in my [...]

Mannequin Madness

I’ve kept up with my drawing for the Every Day in May challenge. I have been like a madwoman with my mannequin drawing this week! I think part of the appeal is being able to pose them – reminds me of playing with Barbie as a kid. Granted, it’s been a long time, and the [...]

Catching up – Gifts and Drawings

I’ve been quiet the past few days, but not because of my health. I’ve been focused on sewing and painting for a gift I created for my mother-in-law as a Mother’s Day gift. I’ve had to keep it under wraps, because my MIL reads my blog regularly (*waves to mom*)! It’s to the left. It’s [...]

Every Day in May # 7

Yesterday I did a lot of drawing, but I can only share two small drawings with you for yesterday’s Every Day in May challenge. The other is for Sunday’s CreativeTherapy catalyst, which will be revealed on Sunday. To the right is a drawing of my pencil sharpener. Not a perfect drawing, but a drawing, nonetheless. [...]

Every Day in May Drawings #6

Today I decided to do some drawing for most of the day. I’m trying to figure out if I really like the feel of the Hand-Book travel journals, since I bought one for my trip to France. I’ll decide after I get some time in with the paper. It’s thinner than what I use when [...]
