Art Series: Hand Lettering A to Z

You know how some people have a skill that amazes you?   I have a friend on the crew that regularly hand letters bible verses and her skill amazes me.  It really does!  And later I'll be sharing some of her work with you because I have this oh so lovely book to share with you today.   Hand Lettering from A to Z.  It's a book that is designed to give people who hand letter, creative ideas that they might want to try (or for people like me .. at least give me a clue about how to do it!)  (grin)

Abbey Ly has put together a book where she talks about three styles of lettering, why they are called that, and the different forms those letters can take.  Serif (6), Sans Serif (4) and Script (4).

She calls in four different artists to help illustrate these different ways to hand letter.

BUT before she gets to that, she has an introduction to the book where she teaches about different papers, different utensils, and different places to find creative ideas. I learned so much in this section.

Like...did you know that watercolour paper comes is three different styles?   Did you know that different paints work better for doing lettering or that pencil crayons can bring a vibrancy to your work?   Read and find out more eh?  :)

So let's say you want to do hand lettering...what should you do first?
Start with simple.  Seriously.  Write out a simple alphabet, learn a basic lettering of the alphabet.. make the letters smaller, bigger, squishy or wider, play around with just the basic lettering.

Then.. once you are comfortable with that...add a bit of width to it.  Draw a letter and just change one side of it. Maybe angle it a bit or make it wider all around.  Just slowly keep changing it, then as you go.. play around with it a bit, add some colour and pizzazz.  Just take it step by step and make a font that is all your own.  Who knows... perhaps your style might look like this: 

I love the bright colours found throughout this book.  Careful illustrations to show how you might replicate a style.

As you see different styles, learn the names of them.  Replicate them, become more confident in your own abilities.  Learn to create your own style all the more.  :)

As you get more confident, consider adding some embellishment to your work.

At the close of book, Abbey Ly showcases the work of her guest artists.   It was so interesting seeing the different styles.  This one is a serif style (see!   I learned something eh!).   Good to do that you know?

I thought I would share some hand lettering that I just adore from people mostly on the crew.   Don't they do a great job?

This one is by Lisa.

These are by Carol, aren't her verses lovely? 

and this one by her daughter.  You can find a post here. 

And if you go to the bottom of Deann's post here, you can see a lovely one she did.  :)   If you find that this book intrigues the socks off you, you might find The Postman's Knock a good blog to follow.

Books read in the Month of May

 May...the time for spring flowers and rolling back on the schooling expectations, business in the outdoors planting gardens, going to for walks, and cleaning out rabbitries.   Not a time for a whole lot of reading, but still.. I DID!  YES!  I read some books!!!

Wow. Guilty Wives by James Patterson...
Wow... I have to admit, that the beginning of the book had me NOT wanting to read the book, so I read part of the ending which... was just enough to intrigue me to want to know how the bad guy did it.

Wow.. this was good read.  I was so glad I stuck it out.  The horror of French prisons though... NASTY.  Are they like that in real-life?   I don't know, but I do know I don't want to go to France and break the law and get stuck in jail there. 

The determination of Abbie, the main character, was impressive.  Her ability to focus and work on proving her innocence amazes me despite all the hardship she was put through.   Perseverance and commitment, being the type of person she needed to be for her children's long term care.   It was such an interesting read...definitely a book for ADULTS!

Urban Wildlife Habitats was a neat read about how different animals have adapted to living with people in urban areas.

Everything from storks to monkeys, to sheep and lizards, to snails and kangeroos.   So many animals have learned to co-exist with people.  Throughout the book are a copious amount of pictures, and tons of information to help us co-exist with them and even help them.  

So tell me....would you want to see a moose in your take-out window?

We've learned about muskoxen and ostriches recently.

Fascinating critters.
Did you know that male ostrich lay on the eggs at night because their black feathers are the perfect camoflage. 

 Rip and Red and the Tournament of Champions.

Two boys learning and growing together... finding it's hard ... Red with his autism (high-functioning) and Rip with his Dad returning... hard things for boys to deal with.  But they manage to pull it together around the world of a basketball championship.

 Secrets and Sequences of the Secret Coders series.

You'll find my review here.   

Using a graphic novel to teach some of the basics of coding. 

 Mission to Pluto is a book my son thoroughly enjoyed.  He used it to further his learning with his apologia studies.  

It's part of the scientist series. And it is a really well done series.  if you have a chance to read some with your children (or even just for yourself do so.)  Elephants and Dolphins are the next on my hit list!



Books I am working through.

My mom-in-law asked me what I thought of this book and I said "this man writes my hubby preaches!"

I am so far loving this book and looking forward to digging into it all the more.  It's not a quick fiction read, but a let's grow a discipling people read.

Good book ... My review is coming!

Recipe: Rhubarb Muffins

I was out dumping some stuff out in the composter this morning and spotted the rhubarb patch I have back there, and thought huh.. why do I wait for it to grow tall?   I could cut some off now and use it.  So I cut off a bit (not too much as the plant is still growing) and managed to get two cups worth.  Enough for a recipe at least!   Then I went searching for one.

Rhubarb Muffins is what I came up with.

Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1 cup buttermilk or 1 cup milk including 1 tbsp. vinegar or lemon juice
2/3 cup vegetable oil
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 cups chopped fresh or *frozen rhubarb

FOR THE TOPPING
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

Directions:

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking soda and the salt.
In another, smaller bowl, beat together the eggs, buttermilk (or the substitute), oil and the vanilla extract.
Gently stir the egg mixture into the flour mixture, just until combined. Do not over-mix.
Gently fold in the chopped rhubarb and the chopped nuts.
Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups about three quarters full.
Made 18 muffins for me. 
Sprinkle the tops with the topping mixture.
Bake at 375 ° for about 18 - 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  NOTE: doesn't need 18 minutes... 15 would probably suffice in my oven.

The Original recipe used nuts in it, but none of us are keen on nuts in our muffins.

Results: 
STOP EATING THEM!!!!   I WANT SOME TOO.  THEY ARE NOT JUST FOR YOU GUYS TO EAT!!!    Needless to say, the fellows are rather keen on them.  I have a few left for tomorrow breakfast, but not as many as planned.  :)

T is for ... Toque!

You know what a mom should NEVER do... ask an 11 year old boy to pose with a toque on his head.
THIS IS WHY!!

 Isn't he a crazy lad?

Anyways, since I was running out of time this week and I knew I needed to get a T word done for the blogging the alphabet I thought that Toque would suffice.

Can you tell from the picture what a toque is?

NO?

Perhaps this picture might help:

Yes, the keeper of warm heads in Canada is called the Toque.   Not a hat, not a cap, not a whatever else you might want to call it.  It's called a toque. It's a French Canadian word that most of the rest of Canada has picked up on.  Unfortunately, most of the rest of the world is not as illuminated as us Canadians are... so now you know the best reference eh?

But tell me.. what do you call a toque where you are from?   I'd be interested in knowing.  :)

Canada Book: Irish Chain

 I almost didn't do this book in my books on Canada series... but then thought I HAVE TO.  SERIOUSLY have to.

A book that the lad excitedly tells gramma about so that she has to read it and then stays up all night so that she can finish it... that's a good book.  :)

But seriously... if you don't know about the explosion in the Halifax harbour you are missing a big part of Canadian history.   This story is about a family and how they lived before the explosion, and how they lived after the explosion.  It is fiction.

Tied throughout is the heartbreak of a girl dealing with dsylexia and being bullied.  That same girl who is loved fiercely by her large extended family.   

Woven throughout the story, is the Irish Chain,,, the stories woven in the pieces of a quilt made by their gramma who brought the family out of Ireland during the potato famine.

Their history is woven throughout the history of Halifax.

This is a poignant story, heart breaking in the truths it speaks.   The horror of the explosion and the confusion that followed.   The struggle of being thought of as stupid and having one's self-esteem totally eroded.   The joy of a strong memory, of conviction of spirit, the determination to hold to a truth you know to be real despite the discouragement of others, and finally the coming to terms of who God is and how he acts.    Ms. Haworth-Attard has carefully wrought a story of life in early 1900's in Canada.

The war in the background, hard working immigrants, prosperous landowners, women working, there is so much of Canada in this book that it is SO worth reading.

Mind though....you might find yourself staying up all night.  :)

Where can you find it?   Now that's a great question, cause seriously...you need to read this book, it was, at least in three members of the families opinion, a seriously good read.  :)

Sharing My Open Tabs

 So every once in a while I get a whack of open tabs in my browsers and I want to keep them but don't always know where to put them so I'm going to plunk them down here and see what you all make of them.  :)

From random conversations, books read & general homeschooling.

In physics we were learning about a plumb line so I have this page of images saved for when the lad says "what's a plumb line again mom?"   For those who don't know a plumb line is "a line with a plumb attached to it, used for finding the depth of water or determining the vertical on an upright surface."

KodKod.   It's a type of wild cat!   You can learn more here.

Lori told me about this program called Quizlet.  I am intending to add to my freebies over here but simply haven't gotten around to it yet. 

This really cool version of the Periodic Table.   Planning to link it up on the freebies as well, but you know.. life happens. 

Random Stuff: 

Dear Homeschooler has a camping link up that I've been intending to put some things on and again... been rather busy. 

Quarto.   Just because I've been doing a few reviews for them and wanted to check out what else they represented.  I am hopeful that I can get a few more to do.  :)

Breathe Conference.   I want to go to this conference.  I want to apply for the scholarship but am needing to stop feeling intimidated by the idea.

TownWideYard Sale.  it's yard sales...what can I say?   :)

How to Cut Glass.  It's just fascinating and I want to try doing this sometime.  

 Mystery Science.   I've been checking out some of these stuff off and on for a while.  Need to link it on my freebies page yet too.

All about Birds.  Another one I want to save.  I've had this one on my browser since my son took a birding class last spring.   Along with this other bird related one. What Bird. 

Fun way to Introduce Chemistry.  What can i say... looks like a fun game!

and that's about it.  There's also a few recipes saved on the tablet, but that's cause I want to blog about them with pictures of the food I made.  :)

Review: Head First

Imagine a day where you are going to have fun skiing with your family and an unexpected tragedy occurs.   You slide down a hill, losing your skis and smashing headfirst into a tree.  You survive.. but not well.

What is YOUR reaction?   What would your outlook on life be?  How about those in your inner circle?  Positive or negative?

In the book Head first: a crash course in positivity, Steve H. Lawton gives 8 principles in positivity to help you through whatever crisis you might happen to face.

Steve Lawton suffered a horrible accident and came out of it better than before he went in.  He learned the power of positivity and wrote this book to share those lessons with you.

8 lessons.

8 Chapters.

8 principles in positivity.

The lessons are simple to learn.
The steps to making them part of your life are explained and broken down in to small steps.
Each lesson is accompanied by a practical worksheet you can fill in, or ways to breaking down a problem into smaller steps, or just needing to change your focus from yourself to others.   

 The eight lessons in positivity are
1. It happened that way for a reason.
2. Focus on what you can control
3. Learn to laugh in the midst of your pain.
4. Small Steps to a larger goal.
5. Know When and where to push yourself.
6. Invest positivity into your network.
7. Creating a positivity practice.
8. Embrace growing pains and learn from your struggles. 

Worksheets to help you grab hold of the principles he is teaching, with scattered quotes throughout the text to help inspire you:

Recommendation?
Yes and no
Yes. I have to admit, it's a great book.  It is. Practical and helpful.   I love how the author gives practical ways to put his advice to work.  The Worksheets and tables.. great stuff.  I really like that aspect of it.  If one works through all the 8 steps in this book your life will be changed.  Your manner of approaching life will be influenced for the better.  Thinking positive helps your brain, your heart, your body.  It's a scientific fact (as well as a social one eh!)   Honestly.. I liked the book and plan to hang on to it for a while.  :)

No...even with all the positive thoughts you have in the world.. you CANNOT always change your life circumstances.  As I write this I can hear my lad in my head coming up with all these reasons why even if you think positively why it can't always fix things.  Sometimes, even with all the positive things you can do in the world, you can't fix things.  Sometimes a broken body will stay broken, sometimes broken relationships will stay broken.   Will having a positive attitude help you work through that and past that?  FOR SURE.  So don't misunderstand me.  Positive thinking can and will help you work through the big stuff (and the small stuff in life) but sometimes.. life bites you back anyways.  It does.  :) 

I regret that God seems to have played no role in his thinking.   Again, don't misunderstand me, this fellow came back from a horrible accident.  Regained use of his body against the odds.  He attributes that all thinking positively and I look at it and say "there's the grace of God at work".  He used an ability God gave him (thinking positively) to influence his own thinking and to help heal his heart, mind and body as he moved through the consequences of this accident.  I just wish he saw that.  :)

I'm going on a visit!

 Visit.

Did you know that next week I get to visit another country.  I've been there before this country.
Three and a half years of Bible College...getting a double major in Bible and Education, with a minor in social work.   I got to know Grand Rapids fairly well and drove through Michigan a lot. 

I also drove through a lot of the states when I was a teen heading off with Missions Outreach Int'l going to Haiti to help build a church.

In my married life I've been to Port Huron to pick up parcels. Turns into a nice day out with my sweetheart.

But this week coming...I'm going to visit Pennsylvania.  Going to do some history walking and sight seeing with my lovely 11 year old boy.  :)  Should be a good time.  Dad will be with us part of the week, but mostly he'll be hanging out at a conference.

AND while I am visiting the USofA, two members of the crew hope to visit with us.   Pretty cool eh?

and THAT's all I have in me this week for .. VISIT!

This is a five minute Friday post. the word prompt is brought to us by Miss Kate.  What is Five Minute Friday?  Well it's a party of a group of like minded folks who gather on Friday to do a five minute free write around a singular word.  AND THEN (and this is the most important part) we take the time to offer up encouragement to each other on this writing journey.  It's fun, though it's not always easy, but it is always good.   Come join us won't you?  You are always welcome.

Parenting Series: Inability

Parenting is hard work you know?   REALLY hard work.   It's hard to balance out my needs, my hubby's needs AND the needs of my offspring.   It's outstanding the needs that have to be balanced and something will fall short.... guaranteed.

And that's not a bad thing you know?

It's shows our weakness, our frailty, our need for Christ's redemptive work in our lives...not just in the lives of our children...but in the lives of us the parents!   It's essential to be aware of that.

Our weakness is a good thing.

Sometimes though it's hard to recognize our weaknesses.  

Did you know that many parents use three ways to help train their children?
1. Fear.  Like when you threaten to ground your child for months, or when you threaten to remove a bed from a child with a perpetually messy bed.   Fear promotes external change, not heart and attitude change.  It's "act so that the bad thing doesn't happen" not because their heart leads them to act in a better manner.

2. Reward.   Do this ______ and I will give you _______.   Again, promotes external change but doesn't really promote heart change.  Promotes the cost analysis factor in children.  If the reward for x is this, then if I want y what is the least I can do to gain it?

3. Shame.  "how could you"  "I never would have dreamed of..."  Using your past or exaggerating a present to make the child feel bad about what they do.  Causes your child to feel shame by association to you.

All these methods do have their moments of effectiveness....but they don't really change the heart.  
And we CAN"T change the hearts of our children.
Therein lies our weakness.

We can't change the hearts of our children, all we can do is call out to God for help.  To give us insight into the hearts and minds of our children so we can guide them into the future of loving God and being led by him.

We need to recognize this truth "Because as parents we serve a gloriously loving and powerful Redeemer.  He loves our children infinitely more than we do and as evidence of that love, he has placed them in a family of  faith where the story of his love will be heard again and again.  He has the power beyond our ability to understand.... In grace he will never turn his back on your cries as a parent and on your children's cries as they reach out for him.  He delights in love.  He delights in reconciliation.   He delights in repentance and change.   He delights in showering his power down on his children to do for them what is his will, but what they cannot do for themselves."  p.69.

In the end we have to realize, that even if we don't have all the answers, even if we get things wrong, we don't have to fret!   If we turn to God and lean on him, he'll help us through it.  He's got our backs.  He wants what is best for us and for our children.   He is the only one with the power to make a difference.

Therein, lies his grace.

---------

I was talking with my lad today about this chapter.   Because it makes sense right?  That it's not up to me to change his heart...that I can do things to hopefully influence his thought processes, but it's not up to me to change him, to cause him to all the more seek after God's own heart.    When I said "Lad, if I raise my voice at you...does it change your behaviour in your heart?  OR does it just make you want to stop doing what you are doing at the moment?   Does it change what you do in the future?"   He honestly didn't know, but I could see the wheels turning in his brain.  :)   It's good to talk about these things with a growing boy, to help him see my need for God's grace even as I parent him.

Art Series: Mom & Me

Do you have a desire to connect with your child in a fun, non-threatening way?  A desire to go beyond the "nothing" and "stuff" when you ask what your child did at school or an event?  Lacy Mucklow has  produced a book intended to help you out.  Draw out the conversation as you do an art journal together.

 I opened this lovely art journal and it immediately brought me back to the days when my son and I were having fun doing art with an art prompt book.

We'd search out an art prompt ... such as  "tree house" and we'd sit down and draw whatever popped into our brain about what a tree house would be like.   We had so much fun coming up with ideas, drawing and just talking to each other. Each doing our own thing, but spending time together talking and laughing as we did an art project together.

THAT is exactly what this mom and me art journal is supposed to.   Instead of looking up art prompts in a book and then using our own art papers. we can just use this journal.  A perfect time for a mom and child to chatter away with each other.

You have to check out some of these pages.  They are really quite nice.

The pages follow different styles: from shapes to fill out, to large blocky shapes, to full pages.   Each two page sets is unique from all others in this book. Printed on a nice thick paper so you can colour or draw in whatever way the prompt moves you to do so. 

Author Lacy Mucklow (MA. ATR-BC, LPAT, LCPAT) is a registered, board certified, and licensed art therapist who has been practicing art therapy in the Washington, DC area since 1999. She has experience working with a variety of mental health populations and settings, including schools, home-based counseling, and hospitals with adolescents, families, and adults. Lacy holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology with a minor in Studio Art from Oklahoma State University, and a Master of Arts degree in Art Therapy from The George Washington University.

She wants moms and their children to connect with each other in a meaningful way. So she has intentionally included feelings like happy, sad, angry.  She covers topics like family and friends, heros, and imagination.   Hopes and dreams are always fun to discuss together.. drawing whatever you feel inspired to do, knowing that there is no right or wrong, just a responding to a prompt and chatting as you do so.   It is good yes?

One of the things I like in this book is the word prompts aren't just single words or ideas.

Do you see how this would be different for every person?   How it could provide excellent talking points?  The scene is set...how will you respond?   What is your happiness point?

128 pages of colouring, drawing, filling in fun while having a grand 'ole time with each other.  It would be great to display them as works of art, but also good to just keep as a keepsake to look back upon.

Illustrator Bethany Robertson has done an excellent job of bringing details into each page while allowing room for creative expression.

Bethany Robertson is an illustrator and designer based in Brooklyn, New York. She has a Master’s of Fine Arts from Rutgers University and a Master’s of Science in Art Education from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Bethany enjoys drawing, pizza, flowers, ice cream, and the beach.

The only concern I have is this:
My son and I like elbow room when we draw.  Trying to share a book and both draw a picture at the same time would drive us batty.  :)  Therefore I wish the pages were perforated and one sided so I could pull them out and work with lots of space around me.  That way the lad and I could do what we like.  Sit side by side with a good foot between us, or sit opposite each other so we can surprise each other when we're done (after all the hints and clues we give .. guessing with clues is fun.. especially with art).
