just when you think inspiration is your new BFF</div>

it will turn around and go on vacation.....</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so while i was waiting.....and waiting.....for inspiration to return,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i decided to take my mind off of my long-lost friend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
by diving into some of the stitchy-goodness</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that i truly loved doing as a young kid.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and then i wondered what would happen if i mixed in </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
some of the journal-goodness i love to do as an "older kid".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and as you can probably guess, by the time i was finished</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with all of this kid-goodness i realized that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
inspiration had slipped in through the back door </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and finally came home to my heart.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
now it's time to follow it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(you probably knew i was going to say that.... :))</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
last week i drove to <a href="https://www.donnadowney.com/"><span style="color: #b45f06;">donna downey studios</span></a> in charlotte, north carolina</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for a very long-awaited four day workshop.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i joined a room full of very sweet, talented and eager artists,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and our instructor was creativeGIRL <a href="http://danielledonaldson.com/"><span style="color: #b45f06;">danielle donaldson</span></a>!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
it was four days of pure art bliss, danielle-style!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and after danielle showed us how she paints her fabulous multi-color flowers</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and her sweet little illustrations, it was our turn to dip our brush</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in the watercolors and give it a try.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
then danielle gave us a wonderfully detailed lesson in </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
drawing one-point and two-point perspective objects.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this instruction was probably the most important (and the most difficult!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the entire weekend, as it's the foundation for all good drawing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to be honest, drawing ellipses, determining vanishing points, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and figuring out two-point-perspective boxes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
started to play with my head by the end of the day,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but i was so thankful to danielle for her willingness to dive in</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and give us this essential instruction. she taught it beautifully!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
then danielle set up a still life that was as long as our work table....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it was fantastic, and i wish i could have spent another week there </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
trying to capture it in my journal!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
but for now i'm very happy to have these little objects </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
as a reminder of a wonderfully creative workshop with one of my </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
all-time favorite instructors!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
many big hugs and heartfelt thanks to <a href="http://danielledonaldson.com/"><span style="color: #b45f06;">danielle</span></a> for traveling</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
across the country to share her beautiful creativeGIRL-self with us.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i learned SO much, i drew art that i didn't think i could draw,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and discovered new reasons why watercolor is so stinkin' cool.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(and i will forever smile when i think of her "grandpa story"!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and thanks so much to donna and the group of talented art gals who were</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
also in the the classroom.....getting to know you and laughing with you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for four days did my creative spirit more good than i could ever say!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hope to see you again soon!</div>

the vienna boys choir has been singing this in my head </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for the past week. and then as i was writing this post,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i happen to see the lyrics and </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
realized i've been singing it completely wrong my entire life!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(and now have the artwork to prove it!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i guess the correct version is "hark <i>how</i> the bells...."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
looks like i've been "hearing" it differently all along....hahaha!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
inktober day twenty-four, prompt: "one dozen"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i must admit that when i first saw today's prompt, i thought, "really?!".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but once i started thinking about it,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
everything kind of fell into place, one heart at a time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
because these hearts appear in my artwork today </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for some very special reasons:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
first.....unfortunately, this will be my last inktober post this month,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but you know it would take a <i>really</i> good reason for me to bow out </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the challenge early, and i've got the best reason in the world....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
our daughter is marrying the love of her life on saturday,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and it's go-time! i've got to get ready for this celebration of big love!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
second.....while this artwork contains twelve hearts,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it was created to hold the power of a lot more than that,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and it was created with all of you in mind.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
each one of these hearts holds about a gazillion</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
little hearts, and each one of those gazillion hearts holds </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my gratitude and appreciation for all your visits to my </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
blog, instagram, and Facebook, as well as</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
your sweet, supportive, and encouraging comments.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
thank you from the top, middle and bottom of each one</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of my heart of hearts!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
third.....you know i love any reason to draw a little heart </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
here and there. add some chocolate, and things really start </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
getting crazy..... :))</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
thanks again for coming on this inktober ride with me....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i'll be back in cyberspace very soon! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
