` Why are these so special? Well... they're blank and I'm an artist. Why do you suppose?
I think Violet has a good enough answer; "It means that Mommy will sit still long enough for me to pin her to the chair!"
holdmommydownIn all seriousness, 'Gramma' definitely enjoyed this one:
postcard
My half-brother, I'm assuming, liked this one also, though I haven't yet heard back from him since I started on my 'sending off all my old postcards' craze at the end of September.
viewI have to add - since I drew this by actually looking out the window, I have to admit how tricky it is to draw a scene all while the weather keeps changing. At least it's easier when you buy special leads for your mechanical pencils.
Moving on, I haven't yet sent this one but I'm not sure I want to....
disturbingIt's just... a bit disturbing, don't you think? I'm sure she'll have a good laugh and be happy to see something come in from me.
Anyway, as it's just after ten, I promised myself I'd go off to bed just after posting this. I have a loooong day ahead of me on my second day of work - I'm leaving at six and won't be back until eight at night!
` So excited!
P.S.: Here's the exciting conclusion to this post!

1. Violet looks like a real pal!
2. I looked at the photo of your house on your other blog, and I can tell there is a noticeable difference between the two... that's probably Lou Ryan's doing, isn't it?
3. I can't tell how accurate the view is from looking at other photos, though, because there's too much fog in the way, but it looks like you spent a lot of time working on small details. I see what must be the train... are those horses just above it?
4. The words 'special leads' confused me, until I realized you meant pencil lead! Can you buy B and H and F like regular wooden art pencils?
5. I really do like the 'disturbing' one... it's really nice! The eyes are a little wonky (as usual), but I think you must be doing this on purpose, on some level. I do hope you're sending it!
4. Remember how to relax and have fun (and blog) okay? I know it's been hard for you when you were going to school. Well, I hope all that time=management stuff has paid off!
See you this weekend!
Is that your cat? She is sooooooo cute ... the way she holds you!
Send the disturbing one to me please ... I love that one ...
lol
I would like to wish you a wonderful Christmas and a happy and peaceful new year.
Take care ...
lol
Whoops, haven't responded to the comments in here yet!
Thanks, Middle Ditch! I do appreciate! And I did send the disturbing postcard!
Galtron - you and your lists are getting out of control!
2. You are correct. Then again, I'd already told you something about that in advance, so I may or may not be right in calling you 'astute'.
3. You actually look closely at pictures? You're astute this time; they are cows, not horses, but who can tell?
4. Yes, art stores do carry a number of different 'art pencil' leads.
