inspiration monday

for times when you're inspired to do "something" but don't really know what that "something" is, inspiration can be as easy as peeking into your old journals and idea files.......you're bound to find something in that treasure trove that's sure to inspire you again!
or, if you're like me, you might just have some unfinished projects lurking in your creative archives. i created this autumn doodle about eight months ago with the intention of doing a "season series"......and as usual i got distracted by other things......and as a result, i seem to have completely skipped over winter and spring! yikes!
so i'm hoping that i'll have this colored in by the time autumn rolls around this year, and then i'll be back on track for a winter doodle......provided that i don't get distracted again (and there's always a very good chance of that....)

and now to get this painted in.....

    I love searching through piles of sketchbooks and journals... when I get to a page and I wonder, "hmmm... why didn't I bring that to finished art?" I know I have something fun to play with!
    Your design is adorable! Hope your share your finished piece :)

    Hey Lori, I don't think there is a deadline on seasons. No stress but I do want to see it coloured.
