A Moose and a BOGO Sale

Hi Mom! I recently finished this custom order for a nursery and (of course) had to make a print of it. It's available in my Etsy shop
I also decided this is a good time to start a BOGO (Buy One, Get One) sale. If you want prints to give as holiday gifts, now is the time to pick some up!

Today we are FINALLY finishing up my office/studio. It's a super huge disaster (kind of like my room when I was a teenager), but when it's done it will be awesome. There will be pictures this time. Really and truly.

Reminders

Well, I'm certainly not the most prolific blogger (by any stretch of the imagination). I'd apologize, but it doesn't feel sincere. Haha! I do promise you that I'm working on it. I enjoy blogging since writing is one of my favorite things to do, but I'm a person of many favorite things, and there are only so many hours in the day.

I've been thinking a great deal these last few months about positive affirmations, declarations of intent, whatever you want to call them. Reading Louise Hay's book You Can Heal Your Life made me realize that I think a lot of negative thoughts habitually. I believe that negativity can be let go of, so I decided to make little signs to remind myself. The series I'm currently working on is filled with daily reminders that are as heart opening as I am able to muster. I already posted the ones above on my facebook fan page. I'll often post images there first because it's quick and easy and I'm a busy mama. :)

As I listed the new work in my Etsy Shop , I also weeded out several pieces that I was tired of looking at. You will probably not miss them. :D

Sunshine

I recently completed this logo for my best friend Liberty. She is a newly licensed massage therapist and runs a business called Sunshine Therapy. :) Sorry about the copyright. I realize it's not at all attractive. You get the general idea, I'm sure. :P

In other news, I have a new favorite website. Well, two of them. The first is Web Urbanist and the second is Pandora. Both are capable of providing hours of entertainment if you should be in need. 

Bird

This bird has been half done for months. Oops. I'm recently drawn toward using more detail in the little things (in this case, the flowers). Aesthetically, it matches the other work in my shop. Mission accomplished. This one is 7x6.5. The original is larger by an inch or two.

In other news, we watched The Flowering of Human Consciousness last night. Wow. 

Penguin!

In celebration of the freezing cold. Ha ha. Perhaps it's more of a reminder that the weather could always be worse. It might be cold here, but at least the snow melts eventually. Available in my Etsy shop .

Another Flowering Tree and Birds

Finally more new work is coming down the pipeline for my Etsy shop!
I'm really starting to long for spring. Despite the fact that I've almost always lived somewhere snowy, I have seriously HAD it by the time March gets here and it's still freezing cold outside. It's just not funny any longer. Not that it was funny to begin with, but...you know.
I will appreciate hearing the birds singing once again in just a few weeks!

One More Today Just For Fun

This is "Blue Bird With Red Mittens" and the composition is directly stolen from my "Tree and Underwear" piece. The printed surface measures 9x7 inches. The original is 10x8 and is ink, acrylic and graphite on hardboard. It (like all my prints) has been posted in my Etsy shop

In other (non Etsy) news, I am almost done with a larger (2x4 foot) painting that I have been working on for a very very long time. As soon as it's hung in place, I'll take some photos and post them.

Two New Winter Prints

This one is called "Winter Bunny" and the printed dimensions are 4.5x9 inches. The original is 5.5x10 inches on hardboard. As usual, acrylic paint, graphite and ink. I totally know that bunny prints don't actually look like that. In my imagination they do.

This one is called "Snowman". Next time I should make a snowWOMAN. The printed image measures 7x7 but the original is 8x8 on hardboard.

There are more new images waiting in the wings to go into my Etsy shop soon. :)

Red Bird and Tree In Snow

More winter for you! This one was done on hardboard using acrylic and ink and graphite. It's crazy cold here in Minneapolis, so inspiration for all things snowy is in abundance.
The print is up for sale in my Etsy shop.  :)

Red Bird and Two Pines

I just posted this in my Etsy Shop (where I'm still running a Buy 1 Get 1 for all prints). The original was created on board using acrylics and ink and graphite. The printed image measures 7x7 inches.
Outside is an ice rink, so I'm grateful to have plenty of things indoors to keep myself occupied. That means more listings are arriving soon.
