The Year In Doodles

One of the projects that I did in December was a coloring book calendar of doodles.  It was very time-consuming and a lot of fun!  I gave several of them as Christmas gifts with a set of colored pencils.  Here is the title page, and the 12 months in doodles...

I’m struggling a little to get out of a creative “slump” that I’m in.  My daughter, Mary has helped me with the slump by teaching me how to crochet.  Mary crochets beautifully.  I’m fascinated by her perfect stitches and the speed that gets a project done.  Check out Mary’s Etsy shop and her awesome crochet blog!  She is such an inspiration to me and to so many others...I’m so proud of her!
 
Until next time…

  3. Hi Jane, I love your doodle art and your blog. Also liked your post on the North Shore. We go every year for a week with my oldest son, his wife and my two grand-
    daughters. It is the highlight of our year. We stay at Beaver Bay and it is so quiet, peaceful and beautiful. My 3 kids live in Minnesota and my husband and I live in Wisconsin. Nice to meet you. :-)
