Mini Monet: Fields of Tulips With The Rijnsburg Windmill
Tulips and windmills. The color really got away from me for this one; turned into an Easter egg. Photo is edited to make it appear more real to the in-person appearance because I haven't been able to get a good photo yet

Mini Monet: Monet's Garden at Argenteuil
A scan (left) and photo (right) of my extremely small version of Monet's Garden at Argenteuil. The scan brings out some brighter color, but the photo keeps all the nice paint brush lines which I enjoy. A good lesson for me in the subtleties of making a digital version of a painting. Also it turns out that 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 inch square is not a standard frame size..oops.
The actual painting is here

Dinosaur Coloring Sheet
This is the line drawing from a birthday card I made for a friend which I only later realized might make a fun coloring page (see original version here). Had to take a photo of a colored in version and then convert it back into a line drawing. Not ideal. The original drawing is only about 4x3 inches, so it may not print well too large.
Recent Greeting Cards
Two cards I've drawn lately, for a birthday and a secret santa gift. Usually I draw things large and then print them out onto cards, but drawing directly onto the card is very satisfying as well. I really enjoyed making the minimalist/etched dog drawing; I may have to try out more of those. The dinosaurs are essentially a coloring book page I drew and then colored in myself (forgetting to scan in the original outline, so I cannot make more! silly mistake). I ended up taking this photo and pulling the original line drawing out of it through a process I like to call "erasing a lot of stuff." Hoping to get to do more art this winter!
