paisley

This summer I set a goal to complete certain little projects that I had started or recently thought up. These paisley tub toppers make will make it easier to remember what I put in them. Plus they are just fun!

New thought- I am an artist, decorate everything.

Summer

It's summer time, which means its hard to focus.
I'm spending much of my time outdoors. This is good because it keeps me healthy but bad for art production. Rest assured I am working on a painting, some ink work, and still trying to sketch everyday. I just don't have anything note worthy finished to show you.
Please keep checking back. It is very likely that all of my current projects will finish at once.

Mural is up!

Here it is! The ling awaited final project is hung on the wall @ Shepherd Community. The next time you are in the community center look up above the receptionist desk. You'll see me newest mural.

Fruit Basket

Sometimes it takes a long time for art work to manifest itself. These beautiful miniature glass fruit were a Christmas gift a couple of years back. I knew a mobile was never going to look right. This month the art work asked for a small basket & laughed at me  b/c of a game we used to play called "fruit basket turnover". I am happy to say that I have more ceiling art in my kitchen. Look for  Fruit Basket the next time you are over.

sort of Art

This past week I made three t-shirt skirts. One for me and one for each of my nieces. It's not exactly art but it is where my creative energies went. So here's a picture...

Back to school

Yippee! Classes have started again. This summer I am taking a book class so I will still have energies to put toward making new art. Stay tuned to see what i'm doing!

(p.s. if you are waiting for the final pics of my mural for Shepherd Community... keep waiting. They have yet to hang it on the wall. LOTS of things happening in that building all summer. I'll post a pic as soon as it hits the wall- my mural that is.)

Anniversary gift

Last summer I went to my best friend's wedding. His wedding ceremony took place at a park overlooking the water in Windsor, Canada. It was beautiful. I had to do some art homework and began an ink drawing of the setting. For their anniversary gift I have redone the drawing. I think it finished out quite nicely.
