A New Room
How do you see this room? A new year is starting soon and it's a time to start fresh. So, in this empty room I see plenty of bookshelves and a big comfy chair of some kind. There will be one big, braided rug of either shades of browns or blues or even greens not sure yet along with a few scatter rugs for effect. There will be a floor lamp behind the comfy chair and maybe an ottoman in front of the chair. I am thinking blue or green curtains. How's that for a new room and new year.

Happy New Year!!!!
Another new year is coming upon us, and some would ask do you make resolutions for the coming year. What is a resolution really? Is it a wish to do something better or something to work on throughout the year. I think it is both. It is a wish to improve yourself, but with everything it takes practice to really get what you want. You will pass and yet you will fail at times, but we must not give up and to keep trying as each day progresses. So, as this new year comes at us just be yourself. Pray.

Christmas Day
Happy Christmas Day and all the smiles that this day brings to those around. The excitement of Christmas Eve has passed and the child in you awakes, and you head on down the stairs, and usually you head to the kitchen for coffee or whatever, but this day you head straight for the living room and all the glory that is there. You stare at the tree and the presents galore, but you do not think of the expense, but the happiness and joy that all these gifts will bring to all those around you on this glorious Christmas Day.

Christmas Eve
On a particular Christmas Eve what would you expect to find? Everyone knows about laying out cookies and milk for Santa and some even lay out carrots for his reindeer, but what else could be around on Christmas Eve that isn't there during the rest of the year supposedly. During Christmas Eve if one looks really close one can see even though it is not physical for one can feel a sense of happiness, love, hope, charity and joy and maybe even empathy for others around them. Christmas Eve is the time that seems to bring more of these ideas.

Blue Christmas
What is a Blue Christmas? A Blue Christmas is when to me people are feeling low and feeling left out. You kind of get used to the feeling of being left out, but when they try to include you, you can tell that their heart is really not for it shows on them when they are not really looking and talking to you but looking around for something or someone. You graciously say, "Go ahead over there I don't mind."

Heads
This is a collection of animal heads of owls, bears and wolves. I stayed natural for black for the bears, gray for the wolves and brown for the owls. I used crayon for the heads and a light blue colored pencil for the while space. Always share your opinions for I would greatly appreciate them.

Flowers
In this color art I assumed these designs were some form of flowers so I used crayons of orange, shades of blue and purples, and a few green. I used dark blue for the flower with the dark spots to offset the lighter 'flowers' to give a balance. Some of the flowers I used a light red in between some orange. Do you think I did the right thing, and I know that art is subjective not objective. Please share your thoughts.
