Welcome!

Thank you for visiting artful embellishments. This is the third year for this blog and I am so happy to keep publishing. I started in 2011 and began with a quilt of the week, this lead to the leaf of the week for my newly designed paper tree that is located on the wall of my garage in 2012.......2013 is going to bring a lot of excitement and positive change. As a personal challenge for 2013, I plan on designing a artist trading card each week to be featured on the blog.
With so many interests, there will be quilting, art quilting, leaves (and more leaves), as well as experiments in thermofax screen printing, fabric dying, and tons of DIY recycle projects. I may even enter that altered fashion scene. To a happy and healthy 2013, may we all find happiness in those things we create....thank you for stoping by artful embellishments.

Gesture Drawing


Gesture Drawing is a quickly made drawing that considers the function, the action or expression by reporting in as quick and fluid of a manner conveying as much general information as possible.

The top two gesture drawings were done by me in my first drawing class. The bottom gesture drawing was done by my drawing professor Bonnie Lally. I was the actual subject which was fun to see a gestured drawing of myself.  I enjoyed how she could get excellent linear perspective in under 3 minutes.
