THE PHONETIC ALPHAPET
In Support of Pilots N Paws Canada
PAPA – NOVEMBER – PAPA – CHARLIE
Bob was my father’s beloved co-pilot – through life and in the air. My dad would strap Bob into his seat in the gyroplane (C-FRAN) and off they took to the sky, admiring the view from above. Bob is there still – watching over his master.
WHAT HAVE I DONE???
I signed up for the Blogging from A to Z Challenge!!!
For the entire month of April (except Sundays), I will post artwork based on the theme ‘The Phonetic Alphabet.’ The idea is inspired, and artwork produced in support of, Pilots N Paws Canada. I have wanted to come up with a creative way to support this organization for their annual Online Auction. The A to Z challenge was just the kick in the tail I needed.
Also, I tend to be VERY critical of myself when it comes to my artwork. I have a hard time working ‘loosely’ and as time is limited (for this project), I have decided to just ‘let go’ and see what happens.
I hope you like my creations. If so, please leave a comment. I’m going completely out of my comfort zone here so would be grateful for any words of encouragement.
Please join me on April 1st when I share A – Alpha!
These pieces will be available for sale as prints, note cards and original artwork to raise funds for PNPC.
Thank you,

I am LOVING what I am seeing so far! I used to draw voraciously, so I understand your feelings. I would never judge someone who is starting to do it again. But…that is so cute I wouldn’t have to!
Sadie says
Thank you Caren – your comment is encouraging.

Lovely idea! And a treat for us in the blogosphere. Much success with the challenge and raising funds for this project; they sound amazing. I’m involved with dog rescuing in Curaçao where I live, so I’ll be back to read and share.
