Sign Making Class

It feels like forever since I've done anything creative and my paints have been in storage for over 6 months now. Getting all of my art supplies out again is one of the things I'm looking forward to most in my upcoming house move. To get some respite from all of the moving crazy, I did manage to squeeze in a quick class at the weekend though:)

We made one of those wood farmhouse-type signs that you see everywhere. I was intrigued to find out how the lettering is done and really happy with how mine came out. The ladies in my class were very sweet too which was a bonus. I'm so looking forward to life getting back to normal:)

Getting Back at it!

It's been such a long time since I've done any artwork and I took the plunge and donated a lot of my art supplies in the big cull. What's left is packed up in the garage but if I wait until we are moved into our destination home, I fear I will have an even harder to get back into the habit of being creative on a regular basis. So to fill the gap for now, I have bought a sketch pad and pencils. I started playing with them last night and had really bad results:( It's been a very long time...but practice makes perfect so I'm going to keep trying until I have something I'm happy with. For now, at least I'm getting started:)
