BREATHE....in the sunshine

Just finished. I  have been working on this piece for a while. I started yoga this year, part of my new years resolution. I also have been on a low calorie diet + more treadmill than ever before. I am on day 53, lost 10lbs......still more to go. As I wait for the warmth of summer, I painted a little fairy to remind me to breathe......sounds easy, but if you practice yoga, then you know what it means :)
Meditating fairy, dusted in glitter sitting upon her mushroom in a field of brightly colored poppies. Measures 12x12 wood panel. Acrylic, watercolor, ink, stamping and collage. Available here.

In case you haven't noticed, I'm in love with crazy curly hair at the moment. Here, I have another girl with some fab 70's curly fro style hair. I sketched her couple of weeks ago and just now got around to adding her into my paintings, you may see her again, but for now this is it :)

This piece is 12x12 wood panel. I layered acrylic, in some of my favorite sun drenched colors. The flowers are a combination of watercolor and ink with bits of collage. Her dress is covered in vintage doilie. I used my favorite stamp from Unity and Donna Downey for the quote. There are links to both a few entries down.

I really want to keep this one, but my walls are covered. I think this would be a great gift for yourself, a grad or a very special girl. Great size for hanging. Click here for listing

Perfect to frame and sit on a shelf or desk.......or even create a grouping for a wall. I have a limited number and they are ready to ship. I found theses great frames on ETSY, so if you think you may have trouble finding a square frame......I did the shopping/searching for you ;) Check out my favorites in the bar to the right and down------->

Quick update! on thats what she said.....

My "She said" girls (see post below) are all (but one) SOLD......THANK YOU!

I ordered 5x5 matte prints this morning.....so if you missed out on the originals you can still purchase a print. Watch my ETSY shop, facebook or blog for updates.....I will list them after they arrive.

thats what She Said......

no no no not the Michael Scott joke!

I came across a great set of word stamps called "She said" a few weeks ago. This set was created by Donna Downey for Unity. My first thought was, I have to have these....they are a perfect fit with my art girls........so here they are!! I worked on this group all week, they are 6x6 on wood. I painted, and collaged my girls and stamped the words on each one. They would make a great girly gift for a graduation, birthday or any day. The words are inspiring and powerful. I gave them each a name so I could keep track of them. The group is cute together, but each one is unique and would look perfect alone too. These are listed in my ETSY store. Originals....at a low price....don't miss out!

Each is ORIGINAL....one a kind!

Happy Valentines Day! a little late

We celebrated Valentines Day all weekend, so today its back to work. I sold my biggest painting this past weekend, I am so happy it is going to Australia. I have sent so many paintings down under, I feel like part of my family resides there....:)))

I am currently working on more "smalls" we will see them shortly. This is a peek at a 6x12 fairy I finished last week. She is earthy, done in moss green and straw. Her hair is a blaze of fire. She is listed Here--SOLD--- Thank YOU
