Fortune Cookies

"Fortune 3"

Decoupaged paper on archival bristol


I'm craving Chinese fortune cookies now! Not because I want a cookie but because I want more fortunes to play around with. This idea has been great fun. I may have to search out a bag of fortune cookies somewhere just so I have a fresh and new supply of sayings for my mice to play around with. These two just won't stop scampering about in my head.

Found Heart

Not only is it a heart,
it's pink!


The weather here has been fairly decent so I've been running every day. Well, it's been a combination of walking and running. Running the flat surfaces and mostly walking the hills. The hills here in PA are pretty steep and to run them I'll need to build up, but for now walking them is fairly tiring.

On my adventure today I found a pink heart shaped rock. It pretty much jumped out at me on the road. I couldnt help but pick it up, take it home and draw around it. My collection of "drawing around objects" is growing. Not sure what I'm going to do with them all, especially since they are difficult to store unlike most of my other flat work which can be neatly placed in a flat container.

I just had to do it...


Oh yeah? Cool!


"Hurry!"
