More new mixed media - flowers and more.....

Here is some more mixed media/inspirational words on wood which will be made into a print soon to buy on Etsy.  I also have been experimenting on tiny 4 x 4 inch canvas board with textured flowers as an idea for a much larger size canvas when I've got some more time! And lastly, Ive painted a 5 x 5 inch box canvas, of  a Flower Meadow from the Flower Meadow series, of which I will be offering to learn in a workshop coming soon.  Hope you all like them.  I have enjoyed painting them :)






New Stuff!!

Watercolours and Mixed Media!!  Hi everybody! I've been painting some smaller pieces of work on wood, watercolour paper and canvas paper - all A4 size and except for the ones done on wood - all frame able for that extra special touch!!  I am enjoying working with birdies at the moment and also the colours of watermelons, pinks, aqua and mint!  Here is some pics of these works! Hope you enjoy them :)

Paying Pal Now Available!!!

Yay!! Have finally hooked up Paypal!  I can cross that off the 'to do' list for 2013!  Have sold my first two prints through this payment method within about 2 hours of hooking it up!!  Of course, I would like to have it attached to a shopping cart on my very own website, but thats another goal I will attempt to obtain this year. For now, I am stoked that people can have a simple and safe way of paying instead of  handing of credit card numbers or direct transfering etc.  Hopefully my first customer is as stoked with her purchases as I am!!!
Cheers everyone!!

Series of three 8 x 10 inch Prints.....

I am so glad I was able to turn these 3 mixed media on wood acrylic paintings into prints as I had such a great time painting with them!  I did lots of experimenting with layering and stamping techniques, and am just loving the vibrant colours also!  Hope you all do too!

New Inspirational 10 x 8 inch Prints for Sale!!

Good afternoon everyone!  I have been busy rediscovering my old photoshop elements that a girlfriend gave me a few years back (3rd edition!) so it is pretty ancient by todays standards, but its all I know, so there you go!  But I have been designing some papers using some of my watercolours and other bits and pieces.  But because its been awhile since I used the program, its taking me longer than intended, and I am going a bit batty from it!!  But thought I would share a couple of new pieces I did in the last few days.  Both are mixed media and are available as 10 x 8 prints - $18 each.

Now this print above has an inspirational quote that  I try to live by everyday!  Some days are harder than others to follow it but for the most part I try to be positive, and if nothing else it keeps me in check of my thoughts!

Another She Art (Christy Thomlinson) inspired original mixed media piece of artwork that I never get sick of creating!!   She is available as a 10 x 8 inch Print $18.  I have small orange rhinestones that go on the flowers  after it is printed also!
If anyone has any suggestions for me to paint something in particular, or in a certain colour/combination, please feel free to leave your comments.  I love getting feedback (positive where possible please :)  )
