In a holiday mood

It’s in the air, it’s almost here! It’s almost Halloween which means thanksgiving which means Christmas is right around the corner! I can never believe how quickly time goes by!

So holiday ideas have been on my mind. And holiday crafts! Anyone else get excited to add a little sparkle to their crafts! I’m thinking of doing prints and having a little holiday giveaway! I can’t wait to see how they turn out!

Just a little sneak peek of a few holiday designs. I will be adding a few to my shop here as well as digital designs on Etsy! Not sure I’m ready for the holiday rollercoaster but here we go!

What’s new

Well hello, it’s been quite quiet around these parts! Yikes! I thought I’d stop in and share some new things! Since I’m more of an artist and photographer I really need to focus more here then cough cough ( instagram)! It’s really not the platform for sharing cute and pretty things anymore abs I’m not really the video type although I’m trying!

it’s all about the digitals for me these days! I began drawing simple little black marker drawing and then adding my own painting as a layer beneath them to create fun whimsical digital art. It’s fun and satisfies my need to work quickly!

I can still play around with paint and small canvases without a pre thought out idea, I can just play. Merging them as layers always creates something new and unique!

In other news I’ve started to add digital downloads to etsy! All of my artwork is available through my site as print on demand but also some are available as downloads here!

It’s interesting creating now as I usually just follow how I’m feeling but lately I’ve been loving earth tones so there’s a little bit of a collection happening! I may do a soft relaunch of some of my earthy florals!

Thanks for still stopping by to see what’s happening! Hope everyone is having a beautiful summer!

It’s A summer sale going on!

I’m a planner, always making plans and living in all the fancy ideas I have. I’ve always been ready to jump full steam ahead into things. Lately my art has been taking a back burner so that my interest in photography and branding could see some light. Since I’ve been making candles as a hobby I’ve been looking into putting more fun marketing ideas together. So you might see a little bit of a change over the summer. But for right now this is happening!

Fun quirky designs with a colorful modern twist! I love creating these digital pieces! I can merge my love of painting and sketches together to create bright pieces of art!

I’m so excited for the things to come. I get discouraged sometimes with all the changes on the internet ie. instagram, but I’ll just keep plugging away and enjoying the things that I love to do. I hope you enjoy them too!

Thanks for stopping by!

What i’ve been up to.

Well I’ve started on a new project. I’m the kind of person who always enjoys creating in any form, ot could be painting, sewing, designing, branding. I like to say the journey is my favorite part. I’ve been thinking of something that could help promote my art as well as add something more to what my customers are purchasing. And who else needs more self care and joy, I certainly do!

I’ve always made my own perfumes and scrubs so I thought why not a small line of self care items, candles, scrubs and scented oils! Just some way to treat yourself!!!

Over the past few months I’ve been ordering and testing and working on a small brand that will include these items. The photo above is one oil I just created using lavender, vetiver and basil! It’s a lovely spicy but earthy scent.

I will definitely be sharing as much as possible. And really hope to have these available in a month or so. The boxes would include a choice of 4x6 or 5x7 postcard, mini candle and or scented oil and scrub. It’s going to be so good. A nice happy feeling in a package! Stay tuned!

New coloring pages!

Thought I would share a few images available to print as coloring pages! The images should be large enough to print as 8x 10. Still finding new ways to do things as my tech skills are not up to what I would like them to be! I hope you enjoy them! Share on Instagram if you get the chance!

Botanical BaBes

It’s a pretty gloomy day today, but I’ve got my botanical babes to brighten things a bit! I’ve been working really hard on my branding and designing lots of lovely florals. I have a lot of little ideas going on in my brain at the moment.

I wanted to pop in and say a quick hello! I really need to update a little more often. Wondering does anyone even read blogs anymore. Hmm. But I will pop in from the one to time with updates and color inspiration just because, I love all things floral and pretty!

Thanks for stopping by!
