Bunny Boogie Woogie

Seems like I've gotten behind a bit. I took these guys out of my sketch book and the next thing I know I'm painting the background. Originally a dance floor, but now?......a quilt on a bed?

Island Dancing

"With the embarrassing seatbelt-extension episode on the plane forgotten, Ella had a great time learning the hula."

I had a great time with this illo. I kind of liked the colors that happened. I inked this first, then painted with gouache. When dry, I held it under a stream of warm water and let it wash off the extra paint. I had some happy accidents when the paint washed off in patches in the sky making clouds.

I've really been inspired by everyone this last 2 weeks. I haven't taken the time to comment as I have started 3 classes and put in overtime at work this last week, but I've loved them all. Good job everyone!

Dancing

My youngest daughter ADORES her ballet/tap class, so I found myself unable to resist doing a ballet piece.

Flamenco Dancing!

I've been away quite a bit recently so it's been a while since I've posted, but when I saw the prompt 'dancing' I couldn't resisit posting this one. It's one I'd already painted and I do love Flamenco!

'Umbrella' & 'Dancing'

Hi everyone! I hope you have all been enjoying much creativity, apologies for the lapse in posting. When I joined I had high hopes of contributing consistently but life got in the way - I know we're all busy, so no excuse :> Anyhow, I'm happy to be contributing this week! I'm playing catch up though, so my entry is for last week's prompt 'umbrella' and the current one 'dancing'.

I think all the hurricane watches this past month have impacted my whole being here in Southwest Texas and so I have rain very much on my mind, hence the window view above. Good news is, I just found out that we're only going to get the tail-end of 'Ike' here by Saturday...

Have a great weekend y'all!!

Ballerina Posey

My very first Posey Pig illustration, dancing to her own beat!

Have a great week everyone. =)

"Dancing"

When I was a child I wanted to do ballet, but because of my height I was recommended to better do athletic sports. *umpf

Maybe thats why the little girl looks a bit concerned if she's doing right.

@ all Have a great week! ;)

Watercolor Wednesday "Dancing"

I have a wonderful friend of mine who is an excellent dancer. Watching her is a real treat!
Another friend just opened his own dance school in New York and for opening night
I was asked to create these illustrations. Hope you like them. By the way his school is
doing very well. It's called Footprints.
