Happy Easter!

Hi There,

Today has been a beautiful day here in Maryland, that I've taken advantage of being outdoors.

Yesterday I finished a canvas of a Bunny that I saw on line and decided to draw and paint it with different paint media.  I always wanted to do a blue bunny, since what you see is always white or brown bunnies.  Hope you enjoy it.

Happy Easter!

Mixed Media Girl

Hello My Friends,

Today I'm posting a mixed media girl that I tried to draw like the one Willowing had on Pinterest.  It's been a while since I did any drawing, but it makes me happy just to be able to accomplish this canvas.  I hope you enjoy it.

Hello My Friends,

It's been a while since I posted something on my blog.   Today I want to share my mixed media canvases, that I've been working on this month.  Even though Spring is not here, with the warm temperatures that we've had , I got inspired and creative.
Enjoy!

Spring is Almost Here!

Good Day My Friends and Family,

Today I want to share some of my puppy's recent pictures.  He has grown and more mischievous than ever.  As a terrier he's narrow minded and only wants to do what we taught him when he wants, and with that cute face of his, he seems to get away with it most of the times. When we brought him home his weight was 6 pounds, now his weight is almost 14 pounds.  He's going to be five months in a week.  Time flies....

Enjoy Caleb pictures!

New Mixed Media

Hi There!

Today I have a new project I worked on  a couple of weeks ago.  I decided to try my Pan Pastels painting colors.

On this project I used the following materials:
Canvas 9 X 12 Primed
Pan Pastels and accessories
Brushtix
Graphic Pencil
Stencil
Embossing Powder-pearl white
Tim Holtz Stamp - Butterflies & Saying
Acrylic Paints for background
Fixative Sealer

It was pretty interesting how the Pan Pastels worked. I was able to blend and highlight.  I need to practice more on the color palette of the face.  This was my  first time trying the Pan Pastels, non the less I had fun!

Until the next time!

Prima Canvas Lacie

Happy Fall!

With cooling weather and the leaves falling in my back yard, it's officially Fall.  Soon it will be coat weather again.  Something I'm not looking forward to.

I've been isolated in the last couple of months due to my dog Alastar passed the way in August and it's been very hard on all of us to be without him.  My inspirations of getting creative has been on hold ever since my boy died.  

I had this canvas started since late July and finally today I decided to finish it.  

Prima Doll Lacie : Stamp by Jamie Dougherty, 9 X 12 Canvas, Tim Holtz Tissue Paper, Prima Stencil, Wire Stencil, Golden Matte Medium, Golden Gesso, Golden Paste, Acrylic paints and Distress Inks.  I decided to hand draw part of the arm tattoo on her back to make it look like a lace dress. 

I also have a picture of my daughter's pet : A Crested Gecko.

He's a cutie!
