New year, new things. I haven’t worked with colored pencils in eons, so giving those another go. I love the line quality and texture in Eric Ravilious’s lithographs, so that was a bit of inspiration.

One last Christmas picture, because it’s the 12th day. I bought plain white gift wrap at the dollar store and painted it with leftover acrylic that I had on hand. Everything was tied up with yarn and a tag tucked in for good measure.

And now off to the weekend. Vegetable soup is boiling away and it’s a proper snowy January night outside, so I have plans to curl up with this book and a quilt. Or two. Or three.
