Tonight I have an art show I’m in! I am so excited !(yet slightly stressing) The art is all at the place and hung. One of my friends from when I worked at star bucks (ages ago) has been putting together these shows. I helped her set up the paintings this morning. I had my son with me and he keep pretending to have a pet dog. It is always fun to be part of the set up of a show.

Its an all girl show and turns out 3 of us used to be (or currently is) the Art Club presidents at Tyler Junior College! Small world !(or town) I helped start the club and ended up becoming the first president of the club (o so much fun!!) Good times, good school.

So all of my art are trees and seasonal. I love nature and especially trees! The beauty and memories that they bring to me inspire me daily. My husband says I’m a hippy (yet I am too young to be so) and it always makes us laghf since he use to be in the military and is still such a gun nut! Well opposites attract right!

So in the show tonight I have 10 paintings. Beautiful, close to my heart, and well made paintings. I love sharing them with others and am excited that blogs exists so I can share them with you on hear.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wooho to a new purse!

I boght this purse (but in green with white leather) and got it in today! Ive had bad luck with 'pleather' purses and decided a leather one was in order

Its big and roomy and beautiful!

A fun friday!

My son loves to shake his grove thing!! (in your face preferably) Although I always scold him, I also always get a good giggle inside and treasure his sweet little nuttiness. Today was one of those days with my family that was rely memorable. We truly just relaxed and played and it was fun.

A few favorite things, my 'garden' of potted plants (a copple I have keep alive a year now!) seadlings almost ready to plant, my son picking flowers in the clover, my family being so silly we need a camera, my paper punches (fun stuff)

things like these make my days fun.

blossoms

A perfect! i added blossoms and am very content with my spring inside! I’m in an all women show the 20th (did i mention that?? o well) and am making my favorite, trees, for my part. I love painting trees, so peaceful and contemplative to do and yet fun and free from preconceived notions. and they are pretty! (my fave part)

lovely day!

Its so beautiful today, and the tulip trees are in bloom. I did a couple paintings yesterday in my excitement. I want to just soak up all the beauty and spill it out as art.

ahhhhhhhhhhhh

o and i made fudge, yum!

 had lots of fun makeing it pretty for my friends

tags

I made these last year but haven’t done much with them, but I love them! I love combining stamps and paper and even fabric and lace!


I want to expand my tag collection in my shop, so I started with what I have and took better pics.

I also want to start drawing up my own cards and stamps. I love to draw and have not added anything except paintings in my shop! Why? No idea, just shy some.

I am going to be in an art show on the 20th (wooho) that a friend of mine is throwing in a local restaurant, and I have been inspired by spring to paint trees, but that’s not far from what I always paint. I love trees and especially when they bloom with color.
