back to work

I am back to work 100% now after my small vacation. Been working on more fashion illos- but on color paper. Here is today's work, hope you like it!You can see the full piece at one of my shows this summer (dates to be posted soon!)



Also been so inspired by other artists lately. I don't do well making things by hand like this but look at the amazing lights Sarah Turner makes! AND from recycled drinking bottles. We heart you Sarah.
I also think these would look great next to eachother....

I love wary meyers

I have been a fan of Wary Meyers for so long now. I love what they do with interiors. They also have a great new blog which I'll be adding to my list!

bedroom picks

You know I love mixing the old and new. Here are my bedroom picks from all modern.


I'd love this little side table for anywhere in my house.


Love this headboard, don't you?


I have these pillowcases and sheets already in my guest bedroom. They are so versatile- everyone should have them. They go with every kind of decor.
All bedroom picks from all modern... stay tuned for some "old" that you can mix in with this "new".

today

Today, I have a really important meeting via phone and I am also packaging up some orders for the week. Going out this week as well- those postcards we designed for the prints (kind of together, remember the little hedgehog in the corner?)
Here is a shot of what they look like all finished up- thanks so much for the ideas and help!
The stamps were made at stamps.com , so I could an additional product photo. etsyThat photo is taken by Alischa, who now has a great new line of prints out!
I have a thing in my heart for old chairs.
They are on sale here.

A change is in the air

So happy to tell you that this blog will be changing a bit, for the better. My art life is taking a major turn and a plan to document it fully on the blog. I promise that I won't stop listing my daily inspirations :) There are so many, and I'll keep up with the emails as always.
Every time a door closes for me another opens, and this time a big one closed and a many opened up. Hard work finally paying off.

Today, working on new fashion illos...

late

This is late, but I've been away! Give me a break!
Wanted to share some easter pics with you.
Coolest eggs on the block. Thanks to Martha Stewart...not sure she said to use all black.

I'm back!!!

Back, from a trip to Orlando and then Siesta Key. It was for the most part relaxing but now I have so much work to do. If you take a break when your life is busy you have to be ready to pay for it upon your return. I have never seen so many emails in one inbox and I guess I'll be working hard this week.
Glad to be back to work though. Happy to return to some nice comments about the safety dance painting. I'll have some big news to share about the paintings soon.
I'll leave you with some beautiful photos from a great site called ochrestore . Not only are the products simple and pretty but All of the photography was inspiring to me today. Hope you shoppers AND photographers enjoy.

vacation?

It will be one week since you will see a post on the art blog. I need to take a very small trip to my old home in Fl and won't be updating until I return, so I home I don't lose you. SO much is going on right now so I'll be at work while I am at play and I hope I can try and de-stress for about 3 days of the trip!
I promise some great photos upon the return. Some interesting things going on behind the scenes as well, hope to share with you soon.
