My poor FMS/arthritis doesn't like the chilly winter weather. I know I don't have much to complain about - no snow or freezing temperatures! - but I can't seem to get warm.

Wanted to experiment with working over a dark color. Look how the paint looks, the pencil, the pens! All different! The perspective was off, so she got an eye patch -- how fun! There's so much more to drawing than doing the literal truth. I need new eyeglasses, so I haven't been wearing mine as much, and feel like I can't see (I'm nearsighted, but not TOO badly!)!

I've gotten a few requests to show my stylus. I have a Pogo Sketch Pro. I realized last night that I'd torn the rubber over the tip, though, so I'm going to invest in a Sensu brush stylus. Oh, I'm so excited! I'll be out all night, but luckily, have iPad, will travel!

(And see, I still work with traditional materials - below is a painting-in-progress!)
