A note of consern

Yup, this is just a little note of "consern" and yes I know the spelling of concern is incorrect. The reason I am posting this little tidbit of information is that for some reason my spell check isn't working. Anyone who knows me well knows that I am the worlds worst speller. Just thought I would warn everyone. Thanks for being patient with my shortcomings.

The White Rabbit joins Alice

The White Rabbit with Alice and Dinah.

The White Rabbit has a list that should be here shortly.
Here are two of the darling creations from my friends at Cordwood Cabin. If you have a chance to take a peek at their blog it is worth it. They have quite the imaginations. If you happen to see the Mad Hatter, don't even think about biding on him, he's mine, all mine! Ah hahahahahaha! Just kidding of corse, but he would be a perfect addition to my Alice and White rabbit don't you think? Hope everyone is having a lovely Friday. I will be starting another painting today and then tomorrow I will be starting a series of some sewing art. It has been a while and I have a few pieces of mending to do. If I am going to take the time to bring out the sewing stuff, its going to be for more than just the mending.

Every little thing is going to be all right

The finished product.


The painting of Sloan and I that hangs in the girls room now.


These are the kind of tacky gold frames I am trying to find. They can be any shape or size, large or small. If you know where I can find some please leave a comment. The large oval frame came from a dear friend and the small oval frame came from a thrift store in San Diego.

The idea. I sketched this when Zoe was little.


The finished painting up close. I am going to call it "Every little thing is going to be all right". After a Bob Marley song. Its one of Sloans favorite songs and Bob Marley is her favorite musician. This will go on their wall with the other painting I did of Sloan and I.




Painting

This little guy spent the night under our porch eves. It was so cold and I guess he just couldn't get home in time. He was gone by the time the girls woke up the next morning. I was a little sad about that because I wanted them to see him in person. The picture will have to do.


The work area.

The frame for the new piece.


My paint tray. I have had this since art school. It's kind of my artistic security blanket. I have used it for every painting for the last 10 years.
