Update and Free Digi Sketch: Elephant 1

After a very VERY long hiatus from this blog, I've decided to post more of my digital sketches as I can, as there are still plenty more to share.  Much has changed for our family over these couple of years and will continue to, as it does for all of us.  My card-making passion fed naturally into a business on Etsy that became so busy for me that even with help I just could not keep up.  Aspen Arts is on hold as well currently while I try to really focus on maximizing the golden years with our boys.  I do sell artwork at our local regional visitor's center, but I have not taken any custom scratch-art portraiture commissions in awhile now.  For now I truly enjoy our days filled with homeschooling, gardening, reading/writing and sewing/quilting  More on those adventures in my more recent blog,

The Gardener's Thread

I'll be hosting a giveaway there shortly to announce some more interesting developments.  I also have been having quite the studio cleanout around here, making room and getting realistic about just how much potential I can keep just sitting around waiting on my crazy schedule when someone else could be enjoying it right now!  So there will be a couple of studio cleanout giveaways quite soon, here and on the Thread.
 

And, well?  What about that promised digi sketch?

This sketch is an elephant in semi-profile.  The elephants we saw on our recent zoo trip were so clever.  It was getting towards feeding/closing time and they were right up at the gate trying to unlatch it with their trunks.  We were quite impressed.
