All of the drawings that have generously been given away have been special, this one I have to say is dynamic.
Thank you so much Carla for all that has been for the arrival of Drawing Lab. I am looking forward to the online class in September.
I am so looking forward to the September class! Youre making drawing fun! I’ll keep saying this… I love the book!
Carla, your book is amazing. Your drawings are inspiring. YOU are fabulous. Thank you so much for all that you do and how much you give to the art community.
Thanks for the chance to win some of your art! PS. I gave the Oaxacan animal inspired tutorial a whirl, & posted the results on my blog with a link back to the tutorial. It was great fun & I love the art that came of it. Thanks so much!
I love the book. It helps me stay on track but still have fun. Thanks for doing it!
I finally got a copy of the book. I can’t wait to share it with my art kids at school.
Hi Carla! I picked up your book a few days ago and I love it! I’ve always considered my self a “serious doodler” but your book has given me the freedom to try new techniques and I’m loving the results. And… it’s totally fun! 🙂
Thanks so much for the great book and your enthusiasm, Carla. You’re so inspiring!

Carla, I am loving working thru your book with the ART group … thank you for writing a book that gets me to drawing!
This abstract is very interesting. I’d like to try making something like this. It would be nice framed. Jan C.
I’ll try one more time! I love your pieces.
Everything has been wonderful and your book is wonderful. I’m here again and hoping! 😀 😀 😀
What a fun drawing. I’d love to win it!
Thanks so much, Carla, for the wonderful posts and the wonderful and FUN book. I’m having a terrific time working my way through the Labs. Brilliant!
I’ll certainly be back. Thank you for offering the giveaways too. It’s a lovely thing to do.
I like your drawings and your new book (actually I saw only the few pages available on Amazon and some on Gennine blog). Would be great to have it.
I have a very special relationship with Miro, as you know. This piece is something I want. I am selling this book up a storm, and you know how special you are to me, so is that enough kissing of the ring? xooxoxoxo
Hi Carla–I blogged about your new book! My niece and I had fun with the exercises!
it’s been a fun month with many wonderful works of art and the opportunity to get to know the artist!
Wonderful! I love your work. It has helped me see my doodles as something worthwhile.
Hello, I just got your book and did some cat drawings (Exercise 1). Surprisingly, they turned out great. I never thought I would enjoy drawing cats so much. Thank you for your inspiration.
This has been such fun! I love your book and it’s so cool that you decided to celebrate the launch by sharing your fabulous art. Thank you!
Wonderful piece! Sherrie Roberts

I love your new book (you had me at drawing kitties in bed!)!! And coincidentally, I just finished the Miro exercise last night. Just wanted to pop over and tell you how very much I am enjoying it. I wish you many successes in the future!
