Daily Painters

Ok...so the topic of Daily Painters came up in the Etsy forums and it got me thinking. I'm a painter. Who paints daily. Maybe it would be a good goal to have to be accepted into the daily painters website...so, I suppose I should really start keeping up with posting new work on this here blog.

So...count today as the first day I am going to attempt to really keep up with this endeavor. A painting a day. Look for it :)

New painting - "No Mercy" WIPs

New Cityscapes

Unveiled my newest series of works last week to a fantastic reception on Etsy, they're selling like little hotcakes :) They're all between 5x5x1.5" and 6x12x1.5" currently. I'm loving the tiny canvases and the challenge of fitting big city flavor into a bite size surface area ;) One patron has already mentioned putting several together to create her own little NYC. Gotta love it! Please check them out. There's more to come!

Cupcake Parade!

Handiwork courtesy of my sis and I :) Pretty, no? People actually seemed to have a hard time eating them because they looked so nice. I always wanted to make artful cupcakes!

My humble abode....

I was taking pictures of the place to upload to the flickr group "There's No Place Like Here" and thought I would post a few pics here on the blog so you can see what my home looks like. I've spent so much time on the place - the flooring and cabinets in the kitchen my mom and I rocked out in 2 afternoons last fall and I am in love with the look. There's such a sense of accomplishment to it, doing it yourself. Everytime I walk in the kitchen I say "Wow, I did that!"

My livingroom was more recent. Total update in the furnishings. I did have a 20 year old futon where the beautiful couch now sits...it was time for a change. The other half bought the set (couch and matching loveseat) for me for Christmas. It feels like a home now. I love that I have the house all my friends want to visit :)

To see more check out my flickr - I have more pics there.

Haze

"Haze" 20x24x1.5 oil on canvas 3/2009 Available HERE.

Yeah, so after what, 4 days now of being pretty sick I got motivated to get out of bed and do some painting. It was incredible to me how easily this piece flowed. Different color scheme for me too... I'm loving this piece.
