Happy Holidays CD Cover

Another Christmas themed post today,  the cover for my annual Christmas cd.

Stardust Skating Academy's Holiday Extravaganza

A little something I threw together last week for a program I was creating for a holiday skating show happening this weekend in Sarasota.  Check out the event here https://www.facebook.com/events/129904890453678/.  Tickets for the show are $10 in advance and $12 at the door.

My Gatorama Adventure

Since moving back to Florida one of my goals has been to visit more vintage roadside attractions.  This past Thursday, partially due to my boyfriend Nick's obsession with gators, we made a trip to Palmdale, Florida to visit Gatorama.  It was everything I expected it to be and more. As Thursdays are clearly not a busy day, we were the only visitors which afforded us plenty of time to view the reptiles and other animals without interuption or distraction.  We then watched a feeding of the gators and got to hold one as well. Nick was practically giddy with joy.  It was all incredibly fun and felt good to help support these increasingly rare vintage attractions.

My new best friend and I.

While nick loves gators and would like to wrestle one, he's scared of getting his eyes pecked out by a bird and wouldn't get any closer to one than this.

Lunch time!

Basking in the sun.

This guy is much larger than he appears and came out of the water and right up to see us.

Rambling

Not been so "Daily" has it.  As if going from unemployed to full time wasn't enough of a time sucker, I have become even more addicted to social media lately and have thrown myself head first into the shark infested waters of the dating world in a way that I never have in my life.  So far I've met a couple of really nice people.  This in addition to my regular circle of friends, ones visiting from out of state, and upcoming holiday extravaganzas has made it virtually impossible to create anything new to post.  Anyway, enough excuses.  I am really enjoying my life.  Sooner or later this new found social adventurism will subside and other activities will resume.  I do still have stuff to post I just need to be better at getting it scanned and uploaded.

Hippychick

One of a number of drawings done years ago with a friend while listening to music.  This one was quickly sketched while listening to the Soho song "Hippychick".

EPCOT's Italy

Another rough/unfinished drawing from who-knows-when of the Italy pavilion at EPCOT.

Yikes

Time has gotten away from me.  I have certainly not had time to create any new art recently but it's been hard to even seek out, scan, and post old art as well.  I'm just not used to having to juggle a job in with my social life and online presence.  At work we are racing towards a theme park grand opening and things have been particularly frantic the last couple of weeks.  Soon it will all be over and hopefully I can fall back into some sort of regular routine.  I've spent the last couple of days trying to get some posts ready on my other blogs and if all goes well, perhaps I can get some ready for this one tomorrow as well.

Meanwhile the busy holiday social season has begun with Halloween festivities and there will only be a short hiatus before the Christmas parties begin.  Perhaps some holiday themed art is in order.  Things to think about whenever there's a spare second to do so.
