Out of Town

Hey Everyone, I have to go out of town from Feb 1-Feb 10. If you need anything (especially valentine cards) please let me know before the end of the week so I can get them sent to you. I would hate for someone not to get something!

Valentine Cards

I have been busily painting away! I did Christmas cards this year that were really popular, so I have decided to continue with the holiday theme and create cards packs! This is my newest option-Handmade animal valentines. Each of these characters has used their special skills to create tiny messages of love and caring. SendContinue reading “Valentine Cards”

Tiny Flier Week

Last week in art journaling I inadvertently focused on tiny flying characters. I didn’t mean to have a theme (or to rhyme) but looking back on these entries it is rather apparent. So rise above it, let it go, don’t wallow. Fly with the turtles!

Bloomer Sale!!!

BLOOMER Sale Announcement!!! I can’t give these away but I am putting them on sale for $25.00ea. They sold for $78-so it’s kind of like a give away:) they are all hand sculpted and hand painted and like everything I do look even better in person. Just comment or message me to reserve yours!

More Dragon’s

Well this is apparently the summer of the Dragonfly. I spent the long July 4th with family in Tennessee.

Hermit Crabs

I promised photos of hermit crabs over a month ago…well I finally got them all edited. So here are a few pictures and my Ode the the hermit crab. I see a simple and rustic elegance in hermit crabs. They are the rough and tumble squatters of the oceans. Born homeless and soft they set adriftContinue reading “Hermit Crabs”

Chimp

I have been in Tennessee for the past few days attending a family reunion/July 4th party. It was quite enjoyable. The mountains out there are beautiful, the food was good (and quite plentiful) and the company entertaining! I also had the chance to finally give my dad a painting I had done for him as a Father’sContinue reading “Chimp”

Flower Gazer

Here is the third installment of my “Gazer” series. Here is how I envisioned them hanging together.

Tree Gazer

I have done a triptych “Gazer” series. It started with “Star Gazer” my little bird looking up at the stars. This is the second installment called “Tree Gazer.” It is an 14″x11″ original done with collaged high school papers, gesso, watercolor and charcoal. It is framed in a black frame with white matting. I wanted toContinue reading “Tree Gazer”
