The word for Illustration Friday is "teacher"

This is called "In Miss Lillian's Class".  If you go to my website you will see the results of this disaster.  www.barbbjornson.com   (in the portfolio section)

Twirl

The word for Illustration Friday is "twirl".
This is Sylvia who took a high powered energy drink before practice.
The twirling got a bit out of hand.

An award!


I received this award from very talented artist/illustrator, Nina Crittendon who has a great blog site.
Thank you Nina, how nice of you.  I have only had a blog for a couple months but I shall accept this award and try to keep blogging.  I guess there are a few rules.  One is to send this off to 5 bloggers, I would but I am so new at this I don't know 5 other than the 5 Nina passed the award onto. I would imagine it will be different next year at this time.  The second one is to name 7 random things about myself.  Here goes:

1. I LOVE Downton Abbey and can not wait for Masterpiece Theater Sunday nights.
2.  I have a sock monkey I swear talks to me, in a good way.  He is not scary at all.  I totally respect his advice. :o)
3.  I freeze when taking tests.  A real bummer in high school.
4. Right now I prefer to read YA novels.  I recently finished "The Hunger Game" trilogy.
5. One of my favorite songs 35 years ago was "Popsicle Toes" by Michael Franks.
6.   I feel I would have done very well at Hogwarts.
7.  My favorite reality show is Project Runway.  Right now the All Stars are competing, there are quite a few divas.  Love it.

I think I followed the rules as best I could.  Thanks again Nina!

....and the hippo jumped over the moon

I got a real cute rubber stamp of a little hippo, (thank you Nancy) the first thing I thought when I saw it was....and the hippo jumped over the moon.  So here it is. 
I feel this is a happy little picture and a nice way to start the New Year.
