Too busy to be creative.




all paintings above are 2.5'' x 3.5'' - listed on eBay


With Christmas just around the corner, it seems like I'm too busy to do anything creative. I'll look forward to the slowing down of the new year, and the onset of some slow winter days.

I did manage to create some new art cards to sell on eBay. I enjoyed creating this group. The giraffe is something new for me to try. It was a nice change from doing seascapes and parrots. I did a few zebra cards a several years ago, and they were fun to do too. I think that sometime next year I'll try to work on a new series of African animals. There is an artist that sells on eBay that has a beautiful print of some Hippo's created in watercolor. I love that painting so much!

I do have my sewing machine set up on the kitchen table. But I haven't been able to get out my material and ironing board and get started on my quilt again. That may have to wait until after new years.

The Stitch is back in town!

Well, my sewing machine is back from being serviced. Let the stitch begin! I'm excited to start working on my wash day stars quilt.

I've been working on two small 5 x 7 paintings to hang in my living room. I already have the frames and mats, and just have to complete a painting that's half way good to hang up!

New art cards for eBay




above listed on ebay - see link to right!
I've completed three more art cards and listed them on ebay. The other art cards I had listed ended with one (the sunrise seascape) selling. Anytime I sell a piece of art is thrilling!
