I learned that on a good day, I can do two pieces of art. I don't know what else I learned this month. I would have liked to have learned pationts. What did you learn?

I thought this was a interesting pen. I felt depressed when I did this one. I think this one looks like magic or dragon scales. I used oils and distortion when I did it. I used pink, yellow, green, light and dark blues in this one. It didn't turn out like I thought it would. I thought it would be darker.

There is no cross stitch today.

I can go out and have fun more. I can have fun making music. How do you have fun?

I think this one looks like an armadillo, not that i'v ever seen one.

Butterfly

I think this one looks like a butterfly. It didn't turn out the way I thought it would. I thought it would be brighter.I used sponges and distortion ob it. I used green, purple, red, yellow, light and dark blue. I felt better today. I enjoyed making this piece. I think this piece turned out good.

I don't remember any time when my family had a "yes" day. I do remember one day when I said yes to my sisters who wanted to go bowling. We didn't end up going because I changed my mind at the last minute. Anna got mad at me and I cried for a long time. My sisters and I ended up watching a scary movie together.

I would love to see that newspaper article with my picture on the front page dad.

There won't be any cross stitch today.

Ring

This one made me think of a ring. I wasn't thinking of ring when I made it. I was thinking of the water, how the waves are crashing on the beach when I made this one. It didn't turn out quite what I expected but I like it. I felt very tired when I made this one. I used oils and distortion on this one.  I used yellow, green, pink, purple, light and dark blues on this one.

I don¨t remember anytime when we did make our holiday presents for each other, but I do remember a few years a go when I surprised my mom and dad with a gift. The gift was some cards and some money I had made selling some of the cards I had made. I was in high school at the time. It was a good surprise. I even had my picture on the front page of a newspaper.

There is no cross stitch today.

I named this one marble. I used oils and effects on it. I used yellow, red, purple, light and dark blue on this piece. I was trying out different effects on it. It didn`t turn out the way I thought it would. I was thinking of something dark when I did it. I felt itchy when I did it and not very well at all. I thought the wave lines looked cool and the marble effect as well. I tried the glass effect but nothing showed up.

This one reminds me of dad's old car. It was red and really old. I like the color red. It's not my favorite color but its close. My favorite color is pink.

Did you ever have a scrapbook?

I remember a long time a go, I used to make a scrapbook and then I had a digital scrapbook. I put pictures in it of my family and friends. I put pictures in it of my dog.

What talent would you do if you were in a talent show?

I remember when my church young adult had a talent show. I sang Let it go from Frozen. There were many different talents in the talent show.
