big morning

Big Morning
big morning time to stretch,
stretch up to the sky.
big morning time to smile...
and be a punkin' pie
big morning time to breathe
and take a look around...
big morning time to pray
and listen for 'that Sound.'

One Eyed Exercises :)

the other week Jenny, Todd, and Todd's Kids (lily and desmond) did some
'one eyed' drawing' exercises. it was Jenny's idea and it was great fun.


this is Jenny's....i call him 'bobo foot'
This is Desmond's cyclops...complete with pen in pocket

This is Lily's submission based on some that Jenny did at an earlier date...


todd did this during an 'all staff' meeting at work :)


ditto from above :)



this is a collaboration...todd did the picture...Jenny colored...she's
one of the best color-ers

Just Fun!

the color samples in the painting section of wal-mart are free to take. i learned they are fun to use on playful art projects. :)

she colors me



she colors me with markers and pens,
my splotchy paint makes her smile.
and now it seems we're really good friends,
we've been at this now just awhile...

her ideas, she shares, so i carve and i cut,
with out regard for a thing.
i encourage her to play like a child,
rejoicing in each scribbled thing....

Picnic Guy






































Funny looking face?  Yep!
Last night, while talking on the phone, I noticed there was just enough light and shadow on the drywall texture of the walls to make objects and shapes appear -- the same way you would watch clouds.
I saw some funny faces.  This is one of them!

I added the PICNIC stuff to honor that Todd has designated 2011 as the year of the picnic!
If you haven't been on a picnic lately, GO!
Whether outdoors or on the middle of your living room carpet, picnics are FUN!
