Artist Playroom Challenge #13

Last week I entered my "Less Tangled" painting on Jess's website called
www.justaddwatersilly.com. It was a lot of fun to be featured with all the other
great artists who also entered.  I encourage you to check it out.

I wasn't sure if I would enter this week.  The challenge was to sketch something.

This quote has been stuck in my mind for years.  It's one that always makes me
think about my goals.   What are they?  Have I put into motion the steps necessary to make
these goals happen? 

This is what this quote means to me.

    1. Thank you Alice. I'm so glad you liked it.
      I plan on framing it and putting it on my desk to remind me of my ships that I've put out there. Thanks for subscribing.

    1. Thank you VonnyK. I'm happy you like the drawing and quote. Most of my ships/goals are happily cruising along coming in when they are ready. Of course, I'm also always sending out new ships/goals. It's a good thing there's lots of room in the ocean.

    1. Laurie - you are so much fun. You are an inspiration to me as well. Thank you for your encouragement and support. If not for meeting you I would not have taken any of this art stuff seriously. Who knew that the day you asked us to join you in a art card a day, it would spark this interest for me? Thank you.

  6. OH this is so fun! I love how every boat has a name - and I bet there is significance to each one of them!
