Happy New Year from College Station, Texas!

We are just about at the end our stay with family and ready to head out on another adventure with The Wanderer.

Between holiday celebrations, games of dominos and hanging out with family and friends I did manage to do a wee bit of arts and crafts.

I created some note cards from my drawing of The Wanderer.

Hmm…. perhaps this could be the start of a collection.

This is an attempt at drawing with colored pencils using Alyona Nickelsen’s book, Colored Pencil Painting Bible.

I am determined to master colored pencil drawing before returning home in April. (Master might be a bit of an overstatement.)

Not much progress has been made on the Zenbroidery project,

but there are still 3 months and hundreds of miles of stitching to go on this trip.

Now that Christmas has past I can share the photo of a gift Handy Randy made for his brother.

They are getting broken in with many games of dominos these past two weeks.

While many of you are snuggled in your studios creating fabulous art and/or craft projects during this cold month of January, I will be hiking in Texas (maybe doing a bit of drawing and a lot of reading.)
