Yummy Sketch of the Day - Valentine's Day Chocolate Covered Strawberries, a cute dress and my recently Published work....

Hi Everyone....

What a wonderful day ......my husband Brad picked up a package for me at the post office today and to my surprise it was my latest published work!!!!

I illustrated a short story for Crow Toes Quarterly, a children's literature magazine based out of British Columbia. The story is titled "How the Stepmother got ugly" a fairy tale with a dark ending....it was a fun project.

I always feel like a kid in the candy store when I see my work Published...each and every time it is very exciting no matter what the project is........

I have a special box where I keep copies of all of my published work for our son...I hope he can look at it as he grows up and appreciates my art....

and for the "Yummy Sketch of the Day" I feature some chocolate dipped Valentine's Day Strawberries...(with hearts) yummm.... and I also added my second Valentine's Day dress....these are so fun to sketch each and every day and I hope they bring a smile to your face and make your day brighter....

Cheers,
Diana

Yummy Sketch of the Day - chocolate donut with sprinkles and some fun updates!

Hi Everyone...

Today's Yummy Sketch of the day is a fresh chocolate donut covered with icing and sprinkles....

I spent most of my morning organizing our kitchen cabinets and pantry.....feels so much better having everything in it's special place...and wow ...I found so many things in our pantry that I never even knew we had....

The afternoon was focused on some work on my 2008 Dress Collection Illustrations. Here is one of the dresses in that collection. It will be used for special Bridesmaid Greeting Cards....I had so much fun designing all these cute and colourful dresses....

I will feature some more throughout the week....

I also just received a wonderful award today....It came from Melissa , a wonderful artist who loves Pugs...and you have to head over to her site to check out her art and her cute little Emmitt....very sweet....I will post more about the award and feature some wonderful blogs that make my day tomorrow....


Have a wonderful day!

Cheers,
Diana
