On my desk this morning I had an abstract and graphic pattern going all the while knowing I would need to paint a flower later to post for my second to last day of the May Flower Challenge.

May Flower Challenge Day Five • A Simple Pod for Sunday

Keeping it simple for this Sunday's flower post for day five of the May Flower Challenge . 
Here is a new print called Green Flower Pod from one of my favorite blocks.

For the  May Flower Challenge you can post your flower creation, whether it is a doodle, drawing, photograph, collage or painting. This challenge has been started by Lori Moon, fellow blogger, talented photographer and jewelry artisan. Sign up and join in on the flower fun. Can't wait to see what you create as well! Please note: You do NOT have to participate every day. Play along on a specific day each week or only once - whatever inspires you. 
Join the challenge, here, it is going to be fun. 

I love this challenge not because I have a love for drawing, painting and printing flowers but it is an excellent way to build up your motif library. It also keeps your drawing hand in motion and the creative flow becomes a part of your being.



Thank you for stopping by.

Kids Print and Pattern Book Submissions

 
Pink Elephant Floral                            by Deborah Velásquez©2012

Wanted to pop in and say hello! I have been designing, designing and designing. Just coming up for air.  
I have been living in the week of deadlines. 
I wanted to share with you two submissions I sent in to The Print and Pattern blog call for entries on all things children, from patterns, fabric, illustrations to clothing. This is such a wonderful blog, it "celebrates the world of surface pattern design in fabrics, wallpaper, cards, stationery, gift wrap, ceramics and much more. Bowie Style of  Print and Pattern is going to publish a book on Prints and Patterns for kids. Judging from how wonderful Print and Pattern Book One and Two  turned out this one should be quite wonderful and inspiring as well. Designers and artists were asked to submit five to ten designs for consideration. 
I sent my ten in! Fingers crossed. Wish me luck!
