Some Past Art

I haven't done a post in a long while, maybe because I've been creating. A few past art I've done and have neglected to post.  Happy Arting everyone! Lots of inspiration....

Mother Nature gifted to BFF ArteDar

Sea Horse done as a class sample

This was also a class I thought in my studio

Think Outside the cage

I was playing with sprays and alcohol, this one was sold last week

I have to thank my friend Mitzi for teaching me some wire wrapping techniques

This was a class thought last year

I painted this Frida at an Art get together in Austin Tx back in April, Ladyoflosttimes was the winner of this painting.

this altered spoon was inspired of dear friend ArteDar

My New Studio

Welcome to my new studio. Yes long time since I posted, the reason I've been busy "SEEKING" FOR a place to "ART"

I was in half of room, lots of supplies and no place to store them

I found a solution to my problem, we have a one car garage not being used to store a car. We were storing lots of junk, so I decided to clean, paint, degrease and put some color on the cabinets. I thought my problem was solved until.....

An antique car came into our lives, hubs bought a 1964 (1/2)Mustang, the car needed a home. We had to make a decision to build a new garage or maybe just build a new studio for me.

And guess what …..This is the inside of my new place, I want to thank ArteDar for helping move we had so much fun during the holidays and we also worked very hard. Thank you girlfriend… I’m so happy here…

Workshop with Tim Holtz

Random Thoughts

Bottle for Mario

Random Thoughts finally has a home, he always reminded me of Tim Holtz. I was finally able to give it to him during an awesome workshop I attended at the Queen's Ink in Savage Mills MD. I had royal time, thanks to Patti the owner of the store and thanks to Tim Holtz and Mario for a wonderful time! I also created an altered bottle for Mario to show a little appreciation for their hard work. 

Graphic 45 Ladies Diary Train Case

This project has taken a little longer than anticipated,  I really love the trims, the lace flowers are from a vintage hat. I wanted to look very Victorian, I think I have accomplished my own challenge.  Love, love Graphic 45 papers.

My First Comission Painting

Today I sold my first commission painting, I'm so excited and happy. There is always a FIRST something accomplishment in your life that keeps you going, a new step on your journey.  I really enjoyed painting this unicorn and I hope the owner enjoys it as much I did painting it. 

I hope everyone had a safe weekend and a wonderful Memorial Day! I dedicate this painting to everyone who has served our country to give us freedom. Also to all who have made the ultimate sacrifice and their families Thank you with all my heart!...
