I'm a little late to the party & I have some catching up to do. But I joined the Make With Me daily sketch challenge for January via @janinecrum. It's a goal of mine to sketch more this year, so this is a perfect way to stretch myself! Day #1 was to sketc

#MakeWithMe Day #2: Your word for 2016. I'm playing catch up after joining the monthly challenge yesterday. I've never chosen a word for the year. Last year I felt either too busy or too lazy to be creative. So this year I give myself a command: "Make!" I

#MakeWithMe Day #3: Your Favorite Chair. When we moved into the duplex next to my parent's house a little over a year ago, my grandmother's sectional sofa remained in the living room. To make space for our furniture, we separated the sectional. And then

#MakeWithMe This was the sketch challenge for Day 4: "The Last Item You Purchased". I paid for the rental of my 6th grader's French Horn. She started out the year playing the trumpet (MY trumpet from younger days) but decided she wanted to transition to a

#MakeWithMe Day #5: A mirror. (I'm skipping around as I catch up.) And, no, this is technically NOT a mirror. When I bought this carved wood frame 17 years ago, I always thought it would make a pretty mirror. But the cost to have it made into a mirror was

#MakeWithMe Day #7: Pajamas. Technically this is a self portrait of this very moment. And pajamas are my uniform of choice for as long as I can wear them in a day. Plopped in my favorite chair with some happy socks, & I can't be bothered. ;) #pajamas #ske

#MakeWithMe Day #9: "An Appliance". I chose my hand mixer. I love to bake. This drawing was a roller coaster ride. As I was sketching I would like it & then hate it & then like it again. And then hate it once more. There were definitely some OOPS moments

#MakeWithMe Day #12: "Giraffe". Here's yesterday's sketch, which I finished today. I don't know if I've ever drawn a giraffe before. I don't know that I ever will again. ;) (The animals this week are killin' me!) #draw #sketch #giraffe #prismacolorpremier

Even my little people are joining in on the #MakeWithMe challenge! We'll see how long they last. ;) I won't bombard my Instafeed with THEIR sketches too, but had to share this picture my 11-year old drew tonight of HER favorite memory from 2015. It's when
