Use A Picture For Inspiration
Recently I inherited some picture of African animals someone was just giving away.  The picture of these two lions is great inspiration for this wonderful drawing in progress.  Look for artistic inspiration in the most unexpected places.

How To Make Paper Snowflakes
Paper snowflakes are easy and fun to make.  Find a bowl and trace around it on a piece of paper.  Cut out the circle and fold it in half, then fold it in half again, and fold it in half one more time.  Cut holes in the folded piece of paper and then open it up to see a unique and one of a kind paper snowflake because each is different just like the real frozen ones.  Learn how to make paper snowflakes here:

How To Make A Cute Puppy Card
I use a grid to make this cute puppy card for my nephew the other day.  Grids make drawing easy for any artist and are very helpful for enlarging small pictures.  Learn more about how I made this craft at:

An Artistic Necklace
I fashioned this necklace out of hermatite beads and a wire necklace.  I love the way it turned and now I have complete confidence in making all of my own jewelry.  You do not have to spend hundreds of dollars to make beautiful jewelry, it can be made out of affordable and simple things.  Do not be afraid to wear jewelry just because it is not a high priced diamond.  Learn how to make this necklace at:

My American Bear Drawing:

This is a drawing of an American bear I made in 2003.   I created him by using simple colored pencils and keeping my eyes on the subject more than on the paper.  One of the best art tips I can give you is the keep your eyes on the subject and not on the paper, which will help you to learn how to draw more quickly.
