Happy Mother’s Day to everyone who is a mom (fur babies and other people’s kids etc. count too), been a mom, or dads who are moms too. I know today isn’t wonderful for everyone especially for those who lost their mom, lost a baby or those who don’t have a loving mom.
Today has been a day of relaxing for me. Except for installing a kitchen faucet… oh well. Anyways reading, hooking and drawing. It’s my day off and trying to enjoy it as much as I can. What do you think of my sketch?

Due to medical issues I’ve been laid up for a couple of weeks. So I’ve been binge watching Orphan Black, Black List and anime. I don’t like sitting still though… so I’ve been working on crochet, reading and even drawing, since I can’t get to my computer just yet.
So here is one of the drawings… a full color gnome. A work in progress, pastel worked on Canson Mi Tientes white. Still not sure if it should just be the gnome or if it needs the ledge and/or background, what do you think?
“Spin”

Illustration Friday Spin ©2015 alecia goodman to present
This week’s Illustration Friday topic is “Spin”. Recently I participated in a Winter Exchange and my giftee proposed the idea of coffee art as something I could do. I hadn’t done one before so I created this coffee art, a spin on coffee paintings. This was done in sepia ink on white Canson Tientes pastel paper. I was nervous about this one since its not your typical coffee paintings but I think my giftee liked it.

I recently participated in a secret book exchange. Not only did you have to get your giftee a book, but you also had to create or buy a bookmark. My kids were able to participate too and had other kids to exchange with. It was a lot of fun. We created our bookmarks, drawing 1 each for our 3 giftees (a total of 9).
We chose the Nightmare Before Christmas for 1, a Batman reading set/activity book for 1, and an adult Coloring book/with reading books for the last. So we ran with those themes/ideas for the bookmarks. I am in awe of my 5 year old’s drawings and my 2 year old covered both herself and the paper in marker. My kids’ bookmarks were amazing and creative. I was able to play more with ink and sakura pens on special paper (Mi Tientes).
For finishing we laminated our bookmarks with contact paper which believe it or not is relatively easy. Though I wouldn’t recommend letting kids help with that part.
All about the “G”

Recently I participated in an gift exchange. My giftee, has a special area of her home called her g spot. The wall has many different Gs. This is what I created specifically for her. I plan on making more for my own home and for my family too.
