I am so sorry, Charlie. I cannot find the words to tell you how much my heart aches for you and Philippe.💔

Is it 6 years already? Congrats, Charlie, and thanks for taking us on such a wonderful adventure!

Congratulations, Charlie, and thanks for bringing so many smiles – for 2,000 consecutive days!! I’ll miss your daily post, but I cannot wait to see what you have in store for us next.

Adorable painting! And happy happy birthday to Philippe!!!

Thanks for making me laugh today – flightless birds on a flight!

I loved The Shy Stegosaurus of Cricket Creek! And, I too really wished that could actually happen.

This made me laugh out loud!! Wonderful, Charlie! Thanks for such a bright start to my day.

What a wonderful painting, Charlie! The kitty is fantastic and the cosmic colors lend such an air of wonder. Thanks for brightening my day!

Beautiful rose, Charlie! They are my favorite and you have captured this one perfectly. I also love the Phineas story – poor little guy!

Happy happy birthday, Charlie! I hope it is a wonderful one spent safely and snugly with your little family! (Your latest book arrived the other day – I’m enjoying drawing foods and utensils and glass all around!).

Great sandwich, Charlie, and your book is out!! Ordering today – you have inspired me to include a food doodle in my daily sketch book.

What a wonderful key lime pie and congratulations on your sneaky shopping treats! As to the gluten-free flour, the main thing to know about baking without gluten is that the dough will be very very very soft and sticky. (Philippe will know why – the gluten adds structure to the mix) I’ve had to be gluten free for more than a decade and am happy…[Read more]

In honor of the day’s prompt, I bought some colorful heritage carrots….now I just have to sketch them before I eat them all!

Happy New Year, Charlie! And you are genius for always having cream on hand – as well as for painting this wonderful puppy ready to celebrate! All the best in the coming year!

Adorable, Charlie! I laughed out loud when I saw him hiding behind the gourds – ready to take one of those to his own den. I hope Philippe makes those sweater cookies so you can decorate them in crazy ways. And enjoy the coming weeks!

Positively gorgeous! So much potential in the fountain pen inks I already love!

Happy happy anniversary, Charlie and Philippe!

Super sketch and painting! As soon as I saw it, I thought it must be Philippe! Congratulations on a month of spooking yourself with challenges. I love all of the techniques you’ve tried and all of them have made really successful drawings and paintings.

Oh my goodness! This is so delightful, Charlie! The painting is wonderful – stippling! And you of self-professed non-patience. : ) And your story is so inspiring, taking time to honor those we no longer have with us. Thanks, Charlie!

So much fun!! Thanks, Charlie!
