Talk about blog neglect

Yep that's what's been happening with me lately. Art get's put to the back of the want/need list, when I'm working 5 days a week, with 2 children, a dog and a husband and not necessarily in that order either ;-).

But I have been working for 2 months on the painting below (off and on) for a friend of mine who has just recently opened a hair dressing salon in town from her home.

I was completely thrilled and blown away that she liked my work enough to ask me to do a painting for her.

anyway here it is - titled "Teigans Place".

Paintings for my Son's Bedroom



The above painting was made from a sketch my son did which you can see below. I wanted to make something a little more personal.




As I wasn't completely happy with the first painting (I wasn't overly excited about the background) I decided to do a second one.



Thanks for taking the time to look.

My latest canvas which is 30 inch x 24 inch. Pleased with this one, as it's a commission for a friend, so wanted it to be 'right'.

And now for something completely different



for me that is anyway...

I've titled this graffiti wall and size is 36 inch x 24 inch.

Yep it started out as something completely different, but this is the way it ended up :-) Loads of layers and a bit 'dark' for me, but nice to try something different.

My girl and her bestie and a new painting



My girl and her bestie (Emma is on the right) after their presentation at the assembly this morning. These two stick together like glue and are each others biggest fans. So cute!!




and my latest painting which is a gift for a friends daughter. I wanted there to be lots of sparkle, so maybe I went a little overboard on the hearts and stars :-) but hopefully my friends daugher (who is a real girlie girl) will like it.

My daughter asked why I put wings on most of my girls..... hmmm I didn't think I did that, THAT much, but obviously my fascination with wings hasn't diminished quite yet.

Next painting an abstract....

This Boy



A recent LO done of Luc my son. I take the worst ever photo's (I didn't even take the main photo) and could not for the life of me get a good shot of this LO no matter how much I tried. Hubby is on night shift at the moment, so took the best of the worst and that's what I have posted :-)

Latest canvas - Koi Fish



I like this painting for it's simplicity, yet I may still add some more to it :-) but overall I am happy with the way it turned out. There is loads of texture in the background.

Size is 18 inch x 18 inch.

Page dedicated to my grandmother :-)



I haven't done many scrapbooking pages, but since my Nana passed in 2007, I have been meaning to dedicate a page to her.... yeah well nearly 2 years on and here we are... we can't rush these things :-)

Such a beautiful beautiful soul was my nana. Not only in looks, but in spirit also. Would have given the shirt off of her back and given it to a complete stranger if she thought they needed it. Accepted everyone for who they were and at face value. Treated all of us grandkids and great grandkids the same. We were all so very blessed to have had her in our lives.




Yes as my daughter said the other day "another squiggly flower painting"... hehe so honest aren't they. However I was particularly doing this for my own home and entrance way.

My next painting will (hopefully) be done in an oriental style with some koi fish. well that's my aim and what's in my head, now just gotta get it down on canvas.
