Dear readers! 
It's the last week of November and there are so many things I will have to do in this particular week.
I also finally got myself a Wacom Bamboo tablet, which I wanted for such a long time. So I will learn from all the tutorials I will be able to get and we'll see how it goes. 
Have a wonderful week, everyone!

Dear readers!
It's 18th November - the proclamation day of Latvia. :) 
...and I'm not home at the moment, I"m visiting my sisters in Riga (capital of Latvia).
would love to see the fireworks tonight, because of the event.
The Supernatural episode - "A little slice of Kevin" was just amazing this week. ^^
I'm currently working on another owl painting, as I decided to continue my owl paint series with another, fire owl. The first one was painted back in July of this year.
Have a wonderful week everyone!

Music Sunday 26


Dear readers! 
It's already 11th November and today is the Lāčplēsis day in my country - Latvia.
(On this date, Latvians commemorate not the end of World War I in 1918 (as in many other countries), but the victory over the Bermontians at the battle of Riga the following year)
Also I have been making some sketches for my future artworks and I'm now also the manager of Stylestanza (fashion and style website) tumblr account http://stylestanza.tumblr.com/.

(the graphics for this and 4 next Music Sundays is one of the previous sunsets I captured in my town)
Have a wonderful week everyone! :)

Dear readers!
It's already November. Autumn holidays passed so incredibly fast. I finished the diorama and made two new paintings - one for gishwhes (which I can't post, because the scavenger hunt isn't over yet) and "The Wanderer" illustration (which you can see in this post) made with watercolors, colored ink and watercolor pencils. Also If you have some time and willingness:
I'm taking part in a Guinness World Record attempt where we're trying to get 100,000 people to pledge to do a Random Act if Kindness before the end of 2012.
(It will cost you nothing and I would love for you to help me with this)
Pledge to do a Random Act of Kindness here  and add me as your referrer: Nice-mary@inbox.lv

Have a wonderful week, everyone! :)
