Post- Valentine’s Day post! A hopeful saying by Amy Poehler inspired this sketch.
Do you agree?

Mom and Baby
My daughter and son-in-law are expecting – a baby girl! Here is a sketch done for the shower invite.
(Note: Sorry for the grey background on my recent images. Blogger seems to be doing this,
even when I change it to a white background. 🙁 )

Delicious works of art from a local sweet shop! Yummy!

Reset!
Do you love New Years Day? The idea of starting fresh, putting 2013 behind you?
In 2013, maybe you didn’t do your art every day or even every week?
Didn’t finish that one piece still sitting in your studio?
Didn’t organize your ‘stuff’ like you planned?
Didn’t connect with friends and family like you’d hoped?
Have regrets?
Reset, reset, reset!
The fact that I sat around and watched non-stop Twilight Zone shows instead of
finishing this sketch means I could really use one of these buttons in real life!
Did Rod Serling ever write an episode about a drawing that comes to life?
Get Fresh! Calendars & Tote bags
Since many have asked, I’ve decided to order multiple copies of these items, and have opened shop on Etsy. www.etsy.com/shop/artbybernadette
The calendar is made with top quality paper, and is a convenient 5×11″ size to hang on the wall.
The cotton tote bag is a generous 15×15, with a full color print of my corn sketch.
I’m so happy with the quality of these!
UPDATE Sept. 26, 2013: I’m happy to say the bags are nearly gone (only 2 left to sell!) and the calendars are down to 10.
I confess!
It’s true, I love garlic, and having it fresh from our local farmer’s market is the best!
This is from LaRue’s farm, bought today at the Otsiningo Farmer’s Market.
Notice I’ve used both my dollar brush and my wonderful Black Gold Dynasty brush.
They work well side by side.
After the beach – travel sketches
Just relaxing and enjoying people watching!

Laguna Beach
I recently travelled to Laguna Beach, CA for a marketing seminar – the place we stayed at was gorgeous! I loved that I could hear the ocean at night – hey, it sounded just like the app on my phone!

We had an extra afternoon to visit the nearby mission at San Juan Capistrano. No swallows were there yet, but we did see 2 hummingbirds. They were flitting about, but stopped often to rest in a tree. It was my first time ever seeing a hummingbird sitting still. They are so very, very tiny!
