Winter Quote




Since we have been having sub-zero temperatures, and a lot of snow this winter, I thought I'd post a quote that is a nice reminder of why we love the season despite the hardship:)  The Robert Ingpen illustration above from The Wind in the Willows written by  Kenneth Grahame, is the image that always comes to mind when I read this: 

Winter is the time for comfort,
for good food and warmth, 
for the touch of a friendly hand
and for a talk beside the fire:
it is the time for home
- Edith Sitwell


Enjoy winter and look for every opportunity to be with family and friends in the warmth of home:)

Doodles

Ok, so when you have to spend a week in meetings, your mind starts to wander...and then your pencil starts to wander...and the result is doodles!  Here are some doodles from this past week...trying to develop some new characters.
