Hello! I'm Heather Smith Jones, an artist living and working in Lawrence, Kansas. I work in mixed media on paper, painting, photography, and letterpress and recently taught in an arts-based preschool for fifteen years. At this journal I post news events or happenings. For regular posting please visit my Dailies page. Thanks for stopping by and having an interest in my work.

Let me introduce you to this sweet baby. Our daughter, Mira, was born in mid-June and she is wonderful. 💖 We then spent two weeks in NICU and she’s still on home oxygen but she’s doing quite well. 
The only art I have made since then are those b&w drawings for her to look at. She particularly loves kitty.

Folded cards that I designed with my painting imagery just arrived and I’m really pleased with them! I needed cards to use for thank you’s and had fun the other afternoon arranging scanned images of my art into this layout. @mpixfans is so quick, I ordered these Wednesday and they got here today. Seriously fast. Plus this matte signature paper is nice and thick, and looks right for the watercolor and gouache painting.
So, I better start writing...

I began today’s more muted entry by drawing lines with china marker and colored pencil, then incorporated watercolor layers and gouache for opacity.
