Just released! A shout out to all the mamas out there ;)

Found in sweetpeas. I love this time of year, if only for the sweetpeas that bloom. The colors are gorgeous. Funny, how they almost match my figures from my last post, completely by accident as I bought these after I painted my critters. The sweetpeas are sitting on my desk right next to those two, and it’s as if they are dressed in camouflage ready to jump into the bouquet. 

Nope, not records. I’ve been tweeting about creating vinyls this week, and if you’ve been wondering what the *%&$ I’ve been talking about....here they are. They are collectible painted figures. And I wish I could explain more about them, but they really just entered my periphery in the last 7 days, and now I’m obsessed {like "twitter obsessed"} with them.

There’s nothing like seeing your art in it’s "natural habitat".  I know I’ve mentioned it before, but everything comes full circle, when you see one {or two} of your creations  in someone else’s  home. The image above is via Christine, displaying a a very cool dresser "renovation" that she completed, adorned by two of my prints. {thank you Christine!}

This morning I was painting, and Sean was reading his newest script to me. Riley, the cat (who wants to eat everything if you follow me on twitter ;)) was sitting beside him on the chair, listening. It was a moment I wanted to capture forever. It becomes increasingly evident that everything we are chasing, everything we are hoping for. In that moment, we already had it.

I am SO proud of my friend, Outi. This is one of her latest creations, and it is beyond gorgeous ~ I had to share it with you. And of course, as a surfer, I have a special appreciation for this. We, surfer girls love a beautiful board with personality. I really think, from one creative entrepreneur to another, surfing manufacturers should get on this....develop a line of custom boards designed by artists.....any surfboard manufacturers who read this blog???? this is for you :)

I announced the addition of these two mugs to to the shop to my twitter followers on Friday. To say I’m having a bit of an identity crisis, with all this social media, is an understatement to say the least. Still trying to figure out what to announce where. In an effort to be informative and not too redundant, in case you only follow me here....just wanted you to know that I added these two mugs to the shop ;) {And yes, the vase in the last post was a brand new creation and sold...however, more to come!}
