MY COTTAGE GARDEN COLLECTION

A little corner house on Main St was the inspiration for this Cottage Garden Collection.

Initial doodling & sketches...

With so many details, I can work up complimentary designs for use on multiple products.

a pretty card for any occasion

same arbor, with a different background

Every collection is a work-in-progress. I'm sure I would return to this theme, over the years!

SPRING BREAK

Too nice not to sketch outside. It's great to be sketching outdoor, after a long winter. I worked up the details after the sun went down.

NEW COLLECTION

After getting hot & sweaty in my garden, it's nice to just spend some time on my SWIRLS & GLITTER collection. It's not messy, & it's always fun to just play.

GLITTER & SWIRLS

Whether I'm sitting down or standing up, ideas for new projects & new collections can come out of thin air. I've always enjoy spending time with my correspondence. I'm too busy these days to just doodle. Addressing my envelope gives me an excuse to just doodle. Well, adding the glitter dots was just a thought...viola, my new line: SWIRLS & GLITTER is up & running on ETSY.
