the sickness started last wednesday. sore throat that turned into a rattling cough, then came the congestion.

this is my Get Well Team. the azithromycin joined the team last night, just in time! this should have been just a simple cold, but for me that tends to mutate into sinus infections and bronchitis. ugh. so there’s no crafting to speak of, just lots of coughing and nose-blowing and sleeping (thanks, generic nyquil!).

maybe next week i’ll have some more craftiness to report.

stay well, y’all!

My Artistic Life posted an art challenge this week, and i got to work on mine this afternoon.

i pulled three ad pages from an issue of Marty Stew Living:

y’know, when i saw the kid playing video games, then i saw the dog, the only thing i could think of was the dog with the kid’s head in hits mouth. so i just had to make that part work.

it was a fun project! i think i’ll try doing some more challenges like this. limiting the materials i use for a piece sure does get my creative juices flowing…
