it's true what they say: inspiration really will strike when you least expect it. the other day i was surfing through my new pottery barn catalog, and when i saw these fabulous birdcages.....
this image popped into my brain and i had to doodle it onto some paper right away! i'm not sure why the birdcage is sitting on top of a box, but inspiration is a little kooky that way sometimes!
{i'm also not sure why the birdcage doesn't have a door.....maybe that's why the little birdie is so happy?!}
doodle finished onto a separate piece of paper and added to my journal......
watercolor, watercolor pencil, micron pens, 4B pencil

Pretty , pretty. I love birdcages and birdys! I have them in my head right now too. Great image.
What a pretty sketch!
I love my PB catalog! I hold on to them for inspiration (and a little fantasizing about having such roomy/organized/clean spaces).
Lovely little sketch Lori.
Beautiful and sweet.
I'm hoping some inspiration will pop into my head this Monday.

i LOVE you lori.
that the bird cage doesn.t have a door is just so wonderful for that little bird who now can fly free! i am off to find where i put my copy of the new pottery barn. maybe if im lucky i.ll get a tad bit of inspiration too.

Mondays are my favorite days, thanks to your inspiration. Your birdcage page is wonderful, as usual.
Lori your sketches, lettering, and doodling are always an inspiration, whether it's a Monday or not.
PB catalogs, one of my favs!!
Love this sketch......colors so soft and sweet....
I love that feeling when you have to just drop everything and capture the moment. What a wonderful outcome!
So happy and light! That's how it makes me feel when I see your gentle style...LOVE your birdcage sketch and watercolor. ~K
I wish I could create my inspirations into something so beautiful as often as you do!! :)
LOVE your bird cage and birdie. Happy Monday!
You got my curiosity up again today .... I saw the catalog photo and a few lead-in words from your post in my "dashboard" view. Just had to pop on over here to see what you were up to. Darling sketch!! I just never know what to expect from you except that I always smile!
Oh, it's beautiful! Do you ever sell your artwork (or prints of it)?
dear Lori, i always love your playful sketching, this one is adorable ♡
What a beautiful sketch, and the message is just as lovely. It also kind of looks like a delicious wedding cake.
You have been blessed with such a talent - do you feel a stamp coming on with this sketch I wonder?
Very lovely! These birdcages are so gorgeous!
I agree Lori, Pottery Barn is always an inspiration in some way. Love love what you did with the bird cage, stunning. Your blog is always an inspiration source also. Hugs
