Dog n Cat

Yesterday I spent most of my day painting and sketching. Yay. It was fun and relaxing. I must admit I was watching "Gone with the Wind" during my painting session. I love that movie. Anyone else like it as much as I do? This illustration is the first page of my series. Im not sure of what to call it yet. Who knows maybe I will write a story to go along with it too. Next page will be coming soon. I have a question if anyone might like to respond to. When writing a story that you would like to publish, if you blog about it, or put up the illustrations for it on your blog, is it considered published already? Would a publishing house not consider it for publishing? Hope that makes sense.

Its so hot.......

Cactus Party - Acrylic on canvas board

8x10

For the last week, I think that summer is having a hard time saying goodbye, and letting fall come on its way. The air is hot, sticky, sweaty, and very unlike a true California day. It makes me think of my cute little succulants who must be the only ones enjoying these long days. Please fall, come soon now.

New JennyDraws Store

I'm very excited to announce the new opening of my shop for my illustrations at http://www.jennydraws.etsy.com/. Here in the oncoming days I will be adding various prints from my original paintings. First will be my Grandma series. I have five different prints set up for sale. Today I listed three of them, and I will list the other two in the oncoming days. I have also many others that I have put up on this blog coming very soon.. Check it out.
