The Marie-Antoinette Award

I was just awarded The Marie-Antoinette from the fabulously talented Amy Sullivan of The Heart of a Seed and Stephanie Mannuci of Fantastic Figments . If you have not been by their blogs yet, now is the time. Amy has an amazing way of capturing the beautiful chubby cheeks of babes. They truly come to life on her canvas. Also, check out how she can turn plywood into gorgeous hardwood floors! Stephanie has a style all her own. Along with being so spunky and sweet her paintings are full of cheer and will bring a smile to your face. I know they always make me smile.

I am not going to follow the rules this time around instead I would just like to take this time to thank all of you who stop in and have such sweet comments. It truly is a highlight of my day. I also love keeping track of all of the wonderful artist that I have come in contact with. It is amazing how everyone on here is creating such beautiful and uniquely different art.

Thank YOU!

Just a Little Snow Bunny

This is just a little Snow Bunny on a wood plaque. I used Cris's Secret Crackle. ;) Then I rubbed a little shimmer into the cracks and it almost looks like broken glass. It gives it a very icy effect. I plan to list this and my Santa painting tonight on Ebay.

Hope you all are having a nice weekend. We had our first little flurry of of snow and ice yesterday. The kids ran out in boots and coats to play with it as it fell from the sky. Not much to play with yet, but the excitement of the season is in the air.

Santa

Well, the minute my children stepped foot back in the house, I have had more than enough to do. WHY can't I just enjoy those quiet moments! Anyway, I think I work better with noise all around me. Here is a funny little painting. Not sure these little girls really want to meet Santa, or just feel like they have to.

Silent Night

I am sitting here, waiting impatiently for my babies to return home. They had a sleepover with their Grandparents. As nice as that sounds, I am not sure I like it. Talk about a Silent Night. I MISS MY BABIES! I can't wait to see them. So to pass the time I will show you my latest painting that I will be posting to Ebay tonight. Have a wonderful Sunday!

Fun with Fall Leaves and a Taste of Sugar.

We are having so much fun with all of these dead leaves. They are falling so fast.

Here is a peak at my Sugary Sweet Collection. They are all so sweet they are giving me a toothache. Ouch.

Check out my new little video of Tamale playing fetch. I have it posted below the longest drink ever. Have a wonderful day!

Santa's Helpers

Here are a couple paintings that I have been working on. I plan to get them on ebay soon. I am having fun working with texture lately. I love how primitive the "Santa's Helpers" turned out. I want to try and do another one like that. I think the "Snow Girl" turned out very sweet and almost Victorian. I thought I was going to do some fall ones, but instead I just jumped right into winter. Hope you all are having a great week.
