TALLULAH ALL TANGLED UP

Her Native American name means "Running Waters", but
Tallulah is very afraid of water. She wants to feel brave and
part of the herd, but her too long tail and being teased
chases her confidence away. As this little Mustang
mare struggles to belong, a summer storm brings sudden
dangers and Tallulah along with the herd discovers
being unique builds courage and saves the day!

I had a stroke in June 2015 and kinda lost my way from art and
writing and creating my 12x12 Picture Books ideas and layouts.
I am fighting my way back in my pursuit of 12 Picture Book layouts
in 12 months as a member of 12 x 12 Challenge in 2017.

31 DAYS equals 31 ILLUSTRATIONS


Sharing creates Inspiration! You never know how a post can change someone else's path of creativity.

I read an article last year that was posted in the 12 x 12 Members Group on FaceBook. It was shared from a PiBoldMo posting called "CeCe Bell Hires Herself."   (12 x 12 and PiBoldMo are groups dedicated to Picture Book support, encouragement, accomplishments and so much more.)

The article highlighted her very clever idea where she created illustration projects for herself to complete. For 100 days, she pulled creative pairings finished in two hours or less. "The rewards of her little project were COPIOUS!"

This inspired me and I have been painting everyday in the month of January 2015. This is a very BIG deal for me. I am proud to share that 31 days equaled 31 finished watercolor and ink illustrations. YES!!!
