challenge catch up!

We started our summer holiday with a quick trip to a very cool little island
and it was just the thing to kick start my creativity.
I thought I would share a few photos first . . .

cute little passenger ferry to the island

 live sand dollars on the beach (underwater)
 
really cool rocks

tidal pools
 
 a variety of rocky and sandy beaches

 forest trails
I find the best way to recharge my creativity is to get out into nature.
(especially the beach!)
 * * *
I started today by completing my challenges #118, #119 and #120.
And btw, I am loving the round tiles with the brown, black and white "Renaissancy" effect!
For this series of challenges I am using black and brown Micron pens, HB pencil, terracotta and white Prismacolor pencils and white Gelly Roll pen.

 joey's weekly tangle challenge #118
tangles:  Maryhill and Tipple

 joey's weekly tangle challenge #119
tangles:  Gnarly and Aura-Leah

 joey's weekly tangle challenge #120
tangle:  Girdy
  

And now something totally different . . .


If you are not familiar with Carla Sonhiem's work you must visit her website!

Every month she posts a sidewalk crack photo for us to find hidden images in.  I found several in this one and their odd shaped heads did "crack me up!"

Lots of fun and it's good to try something different from time to time.

I also signed my kids up for her free (online) Kids Art Week class so I thought I would pass the info onto you if you have a child that might be interested as well.

Hope your summer is off to a creative start!

    Isn't it great, the inspiration we see when we're away from our day-to-day familiar surroundings? Thanks for sharing your holiday pics. I love all of your round renaissance tiles. That Maryhill piece is particularly outstanding.
