Faces of RMS - more portraits

The end of the school year is almost here. I have had several students request a portrait. I am attempting to keep my motto and draw something everyday. These portraits keep me in practice. However  I need to get back to painting.

Creative Everyday - Color Purple

My Purple Boa

For Creative Everyday the word for April is Color. I chose purple. I can count the amount of purple items in my closet on one hand. My favorite purple item is my purple maxi dress that I wear in the summer.
I wanted to capture how beautiful she felt when she put on this purple feathered boa.

The Motto Continues

 Trying to keep the motto going. More portrait drawings in ink.

Literary Friday - Double Book

I'm doubled booked once again. Sometimes you just can't make up your mind. I initially picked up Wicked Ways by Donna Hill about murder and revenge. To my great joy while searching the library catalog I found out that Alan Bradley wrote another Flavia de Luce mystery, Speaking From Among the Bones. I have read all of his other books in this series and I have never been disappointed. Flavia is a 12 year old mystery sleuth that also dabbles in chemistry. Flavia stumbles across another dead body, thus begins the mystery. Whenever I read one of his books it as though I am there. I love his detail in describing everything. Check out the cute little video below of one of his previous books. The illustration is mine of Flavia.
