I have four sisters, and one lives in another country. She has been visiting this month, so we decided to exchange our sister gifts (which we do with my mother as well, so six of us total) now while she is visiting, instead of waiting until Christmas. I sketched things on the front and back covers of a notebook for them, trying to find something that would interest them.

I did them so one side can be written in, and flip the book over, write in the other side… two notebooks in one! But… really it was because I did the first one upside down accidentally. It all worked out in the end.

For my mother, who loves birds (and these wrens really do sit like this!!):

For the sisters, by age (I’m youngest) She likes Emily Dickinson, so I just did quotes:

One loves roses:

One has starfish in her decor, and has an ice cream business:

One is a JMU fanatic, having graduated from there, will be moving to the mountains, and likes bluebirds:

I know it has seemed like I haven’t done much since “Inktober”, and I certainly haven’t posted often… but I wanted to show you that I had done SOMETHING artistic recently!
