New Bamboo

Well, tonight the obligations weren't as much so I was able to sit down and paint again. Although it is very similar to the last piece I posted I'm happy with it. The colours aren't quite as "bold" as the previous, but the I think the softer use of colours compliments it quite nicely.

Delicate Bamboo

It has been titled "Delicate Bamboo" and has been sold.

Fluttering Bamboo

The creative bug hit me again today and I was able to sit down, uninterupted and paint what was in my head. Sometimes the oddest combination of objects come into my mind, but somehow they work. I am especially happy with this piece, which makes me hesitant to sell it. I have a larger piece in mind to compliment it eventually.

The title for this piece is Bamboo Butterfly and has been sold.

(maintenance) Links have been updated.....

Throughout this blog I have been making it so that if you click on the picture you are taken to my auction pages.

A lot of the auctions have either ended or sold, so the links have been updated to either to my webstore if the piece. If the piece has been sold I will be sure to update that information within the post. Please feel free to comment on this post if I have missed anything as I would greatly appreciate the heads up!

Thank you :)

Loving the sunsets!!!

The creativy is flowing a little better lately. Now it's just a matter of finding the time to sit down a create. It's funny how if it isn't one thing, it's another.

Here's my newest piece it's an ACEO card that I have titled as Setting Sun

Setting Sun ACEO

***update June 12*** This piece has sold to a private collector

I've really enjoyed creating the sunset themed pieces. I find the orange/red tones to be particularly relaxing to work with.

Her Sunset....

Her Sunset

My newest work created in OSWOA format - measures 4 x 6 inches using watercolour paints. I love sunsets and for some reason I needed to paint one today. I will be auctioning this piece on June 6th in the evening for a one week period on eBay.

Click on the picture and you will be taken directly to the auction.

Just a little update.....

The posting has been slow as has the creativity. I've been home for the last four days and I've started each day waiting for inspiration to hit. Well it finally did today. Hopefully I'll have it finished to show everyone later on tonight.

That's the thing. Inspiration tends to come and go rather quickly with me. I have to grab it when the urge hits. Rarely has a piece turned out to my satisfaction if I put it down for a day or to and return to it. It usually has to be within a day of starting it. It's an odd approach but it seems to work for me.

So I'll leave my thoughts at that. Come back a little later on and hopefully I will have something to show you :)

Lilac; my newest cat

After a bit of a painting drought....I have come up with a new cat that I have put up for auction on eBay. I'm hoping that this little one will be enough to help ignite the creativity again.

Lilac

This particular piece is an ACEO created with watercolour pencils on 140 lb weight watercolour paper. If you click on the picture, a new window will open up displaying the auction. Thanks for looking!
