A year and a month!!!

Oh wow!!

Last June I ran into a glitch with my blog,

and never got around to fixing it.

I tried a couple of times, couldn't make it work,

and just sort of forgot about it for a while.

Then a friend reminded me about it.

This was more than a month ago :P 

I remembered the reminder today,

tinkered with it for a bit, and voila - it worked!

So, here I am - a year and a month later :)

I'll just share what I shared on my Instagram today.

(Actually this is what I'll be mostly doing anyway :P)

It's pretty great to be back in again!!!

The Heirloom Artisan Market 2016

I'm late in sharing this, but this is where I was on Saturday!

Prepping

Art show in June!!! 

There's so much I need to figure out - tent, tables, display,

and of course the art!!

Here's a small peek into what I'll be showing.

It's tea time a lot in my paintings these days :)

I'm finding the whole process so magical - 

combining watercolors with collage and acrylics on canvas

is way too fun! Looking forward to making more of these!

To tea or not to tea

WIP pics of my mixed-media, tea-inspired piece that I did for a recent giveaway. 

It involved working on a page from a vintage book that I've read so often it has fallen apart,

and flowers (dahlias?) that I drew and painted and cut out, and a canvas that has

multiple layers of paint and paper on it.

I'll share the finished piece soon.

Meanwhile, my mug (it contained coffee before I drank it all up and used it as a prop) is happy

it got to feature in my painting. OK, the stripes are the other way, but it's still black and white :)

Fun with straws

Blowing paint with straws may seem like child's play, but don't be deceived. You gotta get the angle just right or you might end up trying to push the paint flat into your paper, and that's no good. Also, there could be some drool happening. Just saying.#paintingwithkids #paintingtechniques #wasntexpectingthat
