I beleive art is healing.when I draw I relax. I'm happy when a doodle is finished.Then I start a new one.no frustrations.this active relax recently is my main summer "spare-time"activity.Just pencils and paper.Taken everywhere.

Happy Holidays!

                      Happy Holidays my friends!
while we wait for our third boy to be born in late March and being absent from the heavy housework I just follow my fancy in doing little and relaxing things like making painted softies(palm size).I made a few in these serene Christmas days and now sharing with you.i don't know what will come next i already feel that it would be the time for some paper mache...
 so here my little animals wishing you all the bests in the New Year!










     thank you for being beside me during the year!!!!  hugs-------------------ildi

kid design into softie

diving from drawing to paper mache then stamp carving , now softies.i made about 5 softies in my life so this is quite a new challenge that i really love.
this two little softie dogs were actually made after my sons drawing when he had 6y.i found it in a sketchbook and decided to make it as i can.even if it's not exactly as he designed both my boys were very satisfied with the result.still i want to make a cat or some other funny animal to give it as a gift for Christmas.





the heavy cotton fabric was painted with acrylics as i don't have any other usable type of fabric in the house for softies and it was both machine and hand sewn.
