After nearly 2 months, I finally worked up another "Postcard to the Neighborhood" (#14). While drawing on it, I had three unexpected inquiries as to my health from folks on their walks. Nice to have neighbors that care if I keel over!! Truth is...I had hit a "Creative Covid Slump" for at least the last month. I just didn't have any ideas or energy to make stuff...highly unlike me!!!
So...I picked a topic that is like my "nemesis" each year...I love the colors of the leaves...but hate raking them. Now that I have my Snapper Riding Mower...we'll see if my attitude changes. Have a Happy First Day of Autumn tomorrow!!!
We've
finally had enough days around here with cooler temps that I felt like
working on another "postcard". I spent WAY too much time on it.
Partially, the time was wasted by mashing up a couple of quotes that
just weren't working together...and I had drawn it too large on the
chalkboard. (Should have "expected" that, right? I'm not a lettering
artist.)
Anyway...here is "postcard #13"!! A little bit of
"magic"...a little bit of "steampunk"...and a philosophy that I've lived
by all my days.
