Lucy Locket | Nursery Rhyme Coloring Page

I added a cute nursery rhyme coloring page to my elementary art resource website - MakingArtFun.com. Fun stuff for them to color, and a great opportunity for you to get them interested in great literature. I've included the rhyme below if you're interested.

Rhyme
Lucy Locket lost her pocket,
Kitty Fisher found it;
Not a penny was there in it,
Only ribbon round it.

Jazz Cat | Free Coloring Page

In an earlier post I mentioned that I'd created more than 20 cats for Vacation Bible School at my Church (Calvary Community Church). The stories about Joseph were the focus of the lessons, and the artwork that decorated the walls of the children's building was meant to tell his story and have a Bible times Egyptian feel. "Jazz Cat" is one that I did just for fun.





Here's the sketch...

Disney Character Watercolors | Painting While Cruising

I recently returned from a Disney cruise in the Mediterranean, visiting Spain, France and Italy. Woo Hoo! While we cruised I painted a few of the characters we saw around the ship.

Vacation Bible School Illustrations

My church (Calvary Community Church in Phoenix, AZ) likes to go big when planning for their week long vacation Bible school. I've helped for two years now, creating signs and illustrations for the walls of the children's building. Below are a few of my contributions.

I created a time machine to transport the kids back 4000 years to the time of Joseph. 


I created several large illustrations of Joseph in different situations. This illustration of Joseph at Potiphar's House is about 5ft tall, and was created with a chisel point black marker and Prismacolor Art Stix.



Cat, cats, cats. Cats were everywhere. I got a little obsessed, and created more than twenty cats to dress up our "trip" to Bible times Egypt.




 Joseph, unfortunately, spent some time locked in the palace prison. We decided it would be fun to include the Pirates of the Caribbean dog holding the keys to his prison cell.
