These two drawings are “testers” when I was working on this lesson in the DRAW! workshop (it’s also Lab 42 in Drawing Lab). I had so much fun doing these, and it got me all pumped up to do a series.
This one is even “giraffe-like.”
It’s hard to believe January is almost over already. It’s been a super busy month for me, but I think that’s how I like it.
Have a great day!

I can finally show you the cover of my other forthcoming book!
“The Art of Silliness: A Creativity Book for Everyone” is a compilation-“plus” of the worksheet exercises from my online class series, The Art of Silliness. Published by Perigee Books, it is due out November 6th and will also be available as a Kindle version and also as a Nook.
I’ll be planning some fun things here at the blog in November to celebrate, but before that I’ll be doing a blog tour for “Drawing and Painting Imaginary Animals: A Mixed Media Workshop with Carla Sonheim.” (Amazon says this one is due out September 1st already!) There will be book giveaways, fresh tutorials, and more.
I’m really excited about both books, and am so grateful to be able to do what I do. Thank YOU for being such a large part of it!

Still trying to clean my studio! I found these 13 critters that were part of my Drawing Lab book (Lab 38: Sidewalk Crack Drawings).
I realized they have never been seen “large,” so here you go!
Sharpie and Copic markers, colored pencil, and vine charcoal on paper.

Hello!
Gosh, time just passes, doesn’t it! I’m still working on the final tweaks, but my animals book is available for pre-order at amazon.com and bn.com. “Drawing and Painting Imaginary Animals” is due to come out October 1, 2012.
It will be the same size as Drawing Lab, but in a different format. The first half of the book focuses on drawing and “play,” and the second half focuses on mixed media animal-related paintings and projects. I had a lot of fun putting it together, and hope you will like it, too!

Hi all!
I’m kind of in “worksheet mode” these past few weeks, but they’re all in black and white… so last night I thought it would be fun to create a COLOR worksheet!
Here’s the link if you want to download and print a copy for you or your kids. And please share at the Drawing Lab Flickr Group if you can!
