Woof

My friend asked me to paint a picture of her dad's dog for a Father's day present.

After 6 or more months, I am finally updating my blog! Well, truth be told, I forgot my password and I got locked out and then I realized I had used an email address to get this blog that I don't use anymore, so I couldn't retrieve my password....so I just ignored the blog for awhile.

But I'm back and I have a lot of new stuff to share with everyone! Mostly paintings, although I still do light plates from time to time. I really enjoy creating art that is bigger than 6 inches though. Haha. So check out my additions to my new pages: Paintings and Light Plates.

I would like to completely redo this blog and change the themes, organize the pages, etc...but I'm in the process of moving. It might be a few months until I have enough time to mess with all that. Until then, Ill keep uploading stuff as I do it and all you twelve followers of mine can enjoy my blogging :)

Back to painting....

Oh my. It's been awhile, hasn't it? I always do that. I get involved in something for awhile, and then I forget about it for even longer before coming back.

Thanks to my friend, I have a chance to sell some of my light plates. She makes beautiful jewelry and is selling her stuff at various arts and crafts shows in texas. She has offered to sell my stuff too! So I gave her the plates I still hadn't sold yet, and then created some new ones (below). We'll see how this goes!

Finally finished my Kindle Case

It took almost a year. They've even come out with a new kindle since I started. But now its done and I'm pretty darn proud. I had to sew a bunch of squares together (commonly called quilting but since I've never quilted before i can't say that's what I actually did) and then I had to sew a lining to that and then put it all together. Luckly I had instructions. Here's my finished project!

New plates

I apparently haven't made any new plates since April. I had meant to take a short break from it but man, how time flies! My bestie Andrea asked me to do some plates for her bedroom so this is what she ended with.

I used art pens instead of paint for the intricate work and it turned out way better. Im thinking of doing some for my apartment now. I have a shoddy camera so Im sorry about the crappy photo. If I happen to do anything artistic soon i'll make sure and post it. I bought paint and canvases this weekend so hopefully I will figure out what to do with them.

Two more to add...

These are what I did on Saturday. I feel lazy because I honestly had time to do more but I just slept and bummed out instead. Im selling all of these Sunday at an event I'm face painting at and Im hoping to get some orders as well so....wish me luck!

Got a new camera!

Ok I havent really worked on much in the past month or so but here are some pics of what I have done. I will be face painting for an army picnic in a few weeks and I am also going to be selling my light plates there so right now im just trying to paint a bunch so I have a lot to sell that day. I'll post the pictures as I finish them. I have a new camera and so hopefully you'll be able to see more from me! Have a good week!
