Monday

Well the rains have returned.  Yesterday was foggy in the morning and beautiful the rest of the day.  Today actually started out ok but by afternoon it started raining.  Really can't complain, we've had a long warm summer.  Here it is the end of September already.  After all this is what the Pacific Northwest is known for. 

I spent a fun day yesterday with my daughters, celebrating two of our birthdays.  We wondered the Pearl District in Portland, shopped a little, ate and drank a little, laughed a little and had a great time together.  One more birthday to go,  I think we might go for a hike.  

If you get a chance check out my shop on Zazzle.  I just added some new items today with a pair of doodled ballet shoes.  

Finished a little recycled jewel box this week and another three doodled, recycled candlestick birdhouses.   I've added both items to my She Who Doodles Etsy shop.

Working on another jewel box then onto a chair I picked up cheap at a thrift store. 



I love working on multiple projects at a time.  Something is always drying before the next step anyway so makes it easy.   

I feel like I've been on the computer most of the day, guess I better close out and fix some dinner.  Time for some cold weather meals, time to get the crock pot out. 

Thanks for visiting.

My work starts with the walk thru the gardens, mine, my neighborhood and local trails and parks.  Lately I've had time to walk Fort Vancouver Historic Reserve and their Heritage Garden.  Lots of great photos to work with.


And ends up in a doodled photograph.  These are my most recent work.  

Check my Coming Events page for info where to see my work.

Recent Commission work

-

A slow time of year, and a lack of motivation gives me some time to update my blog.   I thought I'd start with some of my recent commissioned pieces.   A little of everything.  Family pets, favorite hiking location, new home, personal photos and some inspiration.  

And some new work, this time of year is good for stocking up while I have time.  Doing the things that take more time, like the recycled candlestick birdhouses, and the collage frames.  Also trying a new way to present my work, and always a new freehand drawn doodle.

 The last few weeks have brought freezing temperatures, snow, lots of rain and some flooding in the area.  I'm done with winter now, ready for those spring blooms.  I need out. 

If you are interested in my newest work I always post on She Who Doodles on Facebook.  I'll be updating my event page shortly.  Check back often, this time of year I'm just lining up my event dates, still more to come.

Time for Fritz and I to have a walk since it's…

Rain/Snow/Rain and more snow

So it's been indoor weather long enough now.  On my last walk I saw a few things trying to bloom. 

After finishing my closet door flower doodles I continued the idea on to some canvas.  I've got one more primed and just waiting for that touch of color. 


I've been experimenting with layers of paint on the canvas a little different then I've done before and I really like the outcome.  It's a layer of splashes of color with a white wash over the entire canvas then lifting paint with a sheet of wax paper.  Wish I could figure how to do a whole wall like this. 




Here's a pic of the canvas before the flowers were added.







Fun project, this is the only time of year I get to play, soon the art fair season will get started and no time. 


Go do something creative.
