Ok...I Sheep Cheated this day.
But I still had lots of fun!

I didn't draw this sheep. My camera did.
(Aren't I incorrigible?) ;)

Enjoy!

You'll be glad you did!

IF YOU PLEASE, DRAW ME A SHEEP........

"If you please, draw me a sheep......"

Perhaps the most beautiful words ever written in the Little Prince.....until The Crazy Sheep Lady from Punkin's Patch said them again! (I love the Crazy Sheep Lady....she once said I was mostly crazier than she is......!) ;)

Punkin's Patch is offering an art challenge this month: Draw Me A Sheep
http://myfavoritesheep.blogspot.com/2012/03/draw-sheep-part-one.html

And so, I am. And very excited, too! It's as though it's the first day of school and all things are possible!

As I've stated before, I engage in what I call BEDLAM ART. I care not for the principles of design......
I only care to `twirl~twirl~twirl with my crayons!

And so.....here we go............. SHEEP #1

I look forward to this BRILLIANT exercise!

I can't promise you I will always.....draw....you a sheep........

but I will do my best to come up with sheepie art posts......

until the final ART SHOW..that is........!

For *that* I'm saving my Secret Sheep.......!

Happy Creating!

And thanks to Punkin's Patch!

Hurry! Go to Punkin's Patch!

Hi Everyone!

The Crazy Sheep Lady (who I ADORE!) over at Punkin's Patch is hosting a Draw A Sheep Challenge this month! I am absolutley wild to get started! I engage in, what I call, Bedlam Art. I don't have much (any!) by-the-book talent but I DO have an inner desire to twirl~twirl~twirl my crayons across a blank sheet of paper! Won't you twirl with me at Punkin's Patch?
*************************************************

Ok....if you know me then you know I am Link Challenged. So.....I am putting today's post here from Punkin's Patch as well as HER link to the lovely and talented Skoog Farm Journal, who will be helping us draw sheep! Once you get to Punkin's Patch you can figure the rest out from there.
It looks to be a WONDERFUL journey! I HIGHLY recommend BOTH bloggies!   :)   ~Mimi

TODAY'S POST FROM PUNKIN'S PATCH:

Most of you probably already know Lori Skoog of The Skoog Farm Journal, but if not, you are in for a treat. I've enjoyed reading her blog for a few years now and thoroughly enjoy watching the weekly art classes she teaches at her farm. I wish I could join in.

Two winters ago I was completely snafued by trying to paint the Wool House window on the 2010 Christmas card. I decided I'd email Lori and see if she'd be willing to give me some advice. I'm not super great at approaching people, so really had to work up my nerve. No worries. She was every bit as nice and helpful in real life as she came across via her blog. I have valued her friendship ever since.

When I told her I was thinking about doing a drawing challenge this month, she immediately jumped on board. I figured we all needed a basic place to start and knew Lori would be that and more. I was right :-).

Enjoy!

Note from Fox: Now go to Pumnkin's Patch and read the Skoog Farm post. Lovely and with lots of beautiful art work!   :)      http://www.myfavoritesheep.blogspot.com/

~With links, I'm like a monkey driving a car. I might go up on the curb a couple of times but eventually I'll get you there! :)   ~Fox

How To Know You're Loved: Do the Math

Sunday Morning

The amount you are loved is directly proportional

to the amount of space you have on the couch.

Part I: The Left

Part II: The Right

I'm in the middle.

Enough said.

Happy Sunday, everyone!

SUNNY DAY

Though extremely windy, it was a warm, sunny day at the barn!
We took advantage of the weather to introduce Miss Bertha-bean to the barn yard....and to cow-ture!
She took to it quite well!
