Day 251 – Floppy cat experiment, take 2. I think this shape will work better. And for 1.99 at Goodwill, I found a stuffed duck doorstop with just the right pellet stuffing made from natural cork… Score! (Taken with Instagram)

Day 203 – My 2yr old loves to “write,” so I often find scribbled scraps of paper around the house. Every once in awhile something catches my eye and I stop to look at the scribbles more carefully. This time I sketched over her lines until a new image appeared. I saw a cat-like creature. He was awoken by a pesty fly buzzing around his head, and got tangled in the cord of the lamp he was napping under. Ahh scribbles. So much possibility. (Taken with Instagram)
Day 205 – Line drawings. Any resemblance to real persons is purely coincidental. 😉 (Taken with Instagram)
217 – Sketching some ideas for novelty necklaces. (Taken with Instagram)
Day 245 – Collage with magazine paper. The process is additive, and I almost always try to build out to a rectangle. I love ordering and aligning the random pieces in my collection of magazine scraps. The precision is satisfying. Sigh. The detail and color are hard to capture with an iPhone. (Taken with Instagram)
Day 246 – Beginning a triptych pencil drawing as a way to start the creative process for a commissioned installation involving three doors. (Taken with Instagram)
Day 247 – I plan to create plush toys from both these drawings. I sketched the red one from the book, “Ella Sarah Gets Dressed.” It will be super soft and floppy. The brown one was drawn by my daughter when she was 6 yrs old. I love the ears, expression, and proportions. (Taken with Instagram)
Day 248 – My daughter had the idea to create a welcome path for new friends coming to dinner. I had only a supporting role in this creative project, but we had so much fun together that I had to share… (Taken with Instagram)
Day 249 – My floppy cat experiment (using a recycled t-shirt) is a challenge. The old t-shirt is too week for stuffing. The shape, as originally drawn, does not work in 3D. Weighted pellet are needed for to create the floppy effect. Onward. (Taken with Instagram)
