It's been raining, raining, raining! Aside from the fact that it's a holiday today, many streets have been flooded, and so we are staying home. On my desk today for What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday is an illustration from my prayer journal. I am practicing drawing men using a vintage bible comic book...
My son recently came back from a trip to Japan and here are some of his "pasalubong", a Filipino tradition of bringing back a homecoming gift.
And I am in the process of putting paints into small jars for a friend of mine who was planning to buy some paints. Since I have such big jars, I'm sharing some with her...
For Word Art Wednesday, a close up of my "practice drawing men" illustration with a verse that I claim for my family...
Last week, I offered an ATC in my blog post and the name of Anne of Copper Beech Crafts got picked. Send me your address, Anne!

That's nice of you to share your paints with your friend. I like the vibrant colors too. Wow I am really sad I didn't get to your desk last week, I peeked and see I missed out on the opportunity to win one of your lovely ATCs. So beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Have a blessed day!

Your practice drawing is fab! So sweet of you to share your paints. Thanks for the earlier visit! Happy WOYWW! Nan G #1
I, too, draw faces, and just two or three weeks ago I was thinking I need to draw some men. This is a great encouragement for me to branch out and "Try" the menfolk.
What a sweet son you have and how great for you to share your paints. The really good paints can get very expensive if you slosh paint on large canvases like I do.
I so enjoy your blog. Thank you.
How kind and generous to share your paints with your friend, I am sure they will be appreciated. I am loving your art today and definitely don't think you need any practice drawing men. He looks fabulous to me. Happy WOYWW! Danie #17
Your ATC is totally amazing. That is one of my favorite scriptures. Happy crafting #7

You are so kind to share your paints. I like the drawings you have done, your scripture is really beautiful.

Glad you are safe from the rain, and sharing your supplies too., I think your drawings are already great, so practice will only make perfect! Have a good week. Helen 8
Inspiration is every where. Your man is great...actually the whole scene is lovely. I've only just started with faces and find of course I have a long way to go. Just makes me appreciate it more when I see beautiful pictures likes yours. Love the laughing cat too. Can't quite remember the significance but think it's cute anyway. Have a great week.

Well, I'm enjoying your practice images, he's a super rendition indeed. What a great idea to practice from the comic book types that are already sketch type, very helpful I would have thought.It's amazing to me that you have to practice! Kind of you to share your paints, it makes them a real gift.
It's good to hear you sharing your paints with a friend. Love your latest artwork.
Hugs,

Trusting you will indeed be able to stay close to Father God, as a household, during this worrying time in your land. Beautiful painting as you remember Him.

I don't think you need to practise drawing men. The man you have drawn looks brilliant to me.
How nice to share your paints with a friend, hope she enjoys as much as you do.
Have a good week and thanks for your visit earlier.

Hugs Ria #87
Sharing is the best thing..I love doing it. Life is too short to hold onto stuff, don't you think? I hope your friend likes her paints.
And your drawings of the man are really good, you have caught a masculine but compassionate face. That's clever!
Hugs, LLJ 63 xx
That is very kind of you to share your paint with your friends
I do hope that friend enjoys using them

Absolutely gorgeous, Peggy. It is a blessing to see how you honor the Lord with your beautiful art.
Oh my gosh! It has been too long since I've last visited your desk and seen your beautiful artwork. I like your drawings better than those in the comic book! That is so sweet of you to share your paint with your friend.
Hi Peggy! I am SO blessed by your art and your beautiful post. I always enjoy seeing your wonderful creations, and I appreciate learning of this Filippino tradition. How nice of him to bring you such a fun gift. Your art is such a blessing and I thank you SO MUCH for sharing with us this week, Peggy. May God bless you and pour out His goodness on you and your family.

Sorry to hear about the rain and flooding, my husband was due out there next week but the company has cancelled the trip due to the weather. Your male faces are brilliant, I am amazed you feel the need to practice at all! Apologies for my late arrival of doing the round of WOYWW desks! Annette #6
Your drawings are so professionally done. Their faces are so sweet.
