Being the crafty artist.

Well sometimes creating art isn't enough. Sometimes I need to get crafty. So this Easter I made my own Easter cards out of my large growing abundance of scrapbooking paper! I love doing these. Its fun, and easy, and I find personally made cards just that much more endearing to give to a loved one. :-)

Enjoy! And Have a Happy Easter!

Lil' paintings need a home too!

Well yesterday morning I woke up with an idea to paint little watercolors of local animals. 5 x 7 inch watercolor and ink illustrations that I will frame and hopefully post for sale this summer here in Gros Morne at local shops.

I started off with one of my favorite animals, the red fox. Such a beautiful, colorful animal. :-)

Enjoy!

Cherry Blossoms!

Looks like I'm keeping up with the flower theme! Totally by chance though. :-)

This was a commission from my old college buddy, Mindy, for a tattoo design she wanted of cherry blossoms. Can't wait to see it in ink! I think getting a tattoo of an artists work is the most flattering of compliments to an artist. Its something they will see every day and have with them their entire lives! Such a accomplished feeling. :-)

Enjoy!

Well I haven't posted on Illustration Friday in a LONG while, but I drew something specifically for it this week, just for fun. :-)

This was inspired by my two good friends, one a singer, one a music lover, who has found eachother. Makes me burst into giggles! I am such a romantic! *sigh*
Enjoy!
