Make a little paper Missouri Farmhouse





These little houses, one for each of the 50 states will make a great craft book when I get them all done.  In the meantime I have several published for sale on my Etsy store page at Dancing Paintbrush Co.  This one is the making of the Missouri Farmhouse.

The Lute Player Collage, Page for Alphabet Book





It seems like it took forever.  I've been working on this Lute Player page for months.  It never seemed to be finished because I kept seeing things that I just didn't like or that looked like they could be improved.  The background needed something; her face wasn't shaped right; her hands bothered me; and on and on. Finally I think it is ready and here is the video to prove it.  Enjoy.

Charcoal Drawing Tutorial of a Young Boy



Each time I upload one of these tutorials I get excited, like teaching a baby how to walk.  I'm still new at this YouTube channel stuff but I'm learning more everyday.  This little guy is my latest upload and my latest drawing for my 100 days of drawing children's faces challenge.  I'm pretty happy with it.

Boy of the Red Twilight Collage tutorial





I taped this video before I created the art extender for my tripod so I could film from directly above.  The angle was unavoidable but the placing of the hair on the dog and fur on the parka is cool.  Worth watching.
