life is art

March 2, 2010 by StephanieCorfee

Princess Mei came across this little sketch i did about 5-6 years ago. It was instantly clear to me where i got the inspiration. Um, do you SEE the (embarrassing) pic??? When i was but a wee tot, i was bookish and pensive and cautious and reserved. i was so serious! i wore my navy uniform to school. True. But i filled drawing tablets with mad color! i sewed, i made shrinky-dink bookmarks and keychains til my fingers were numb. So here’s this little sketch decades later of a tiny, red-haired girl flaunting the tutu and the crown and bare feet. (bare feet are SO me) She’s saying, “Check me out! i am CRE-A-TIVE!” She’s breaking out!

We surely draw inspiration from within. Sometimes we just don’t realize it until distance gives us a little clarity. This is me. i’ve broken out.

Anyone seen my tutu?

LAzy Sunday: linen sketch

February 28, 2010 by StephanieCorfee

Coop Linen Sketch

As i grow accustomed to blogging more consistently, i’ve been thinking hard about how i can keep up with interesting posts/features for you wonderful readers AND keep my sanity as i attempt to wear the many other hats we work-from-home moms, and otherwise busy modern women do. i thought a LAzy Sunday feature might be a nice, short & sweet way to end my weekend in a low-stress way, and would give me carte blanche to simply share a beautiful or meaningful image. i’d love your thoughts on this!

The above is a simple pencil sketch of my son that i did on a slubby, linen-type fabric which i then “upholstered” onto a wood board with soft padding and frayed edges. i have no idea what made me do this! My son calls it his “pillow picture” He rests his face on it sometimes! It’s an oddity, but precious to me just the same.
