Scruff


Well it's taken me a while but I've finally photographed my latest commission "Scruff". This commission will mark some more frequent presence for my art online than I've done in a while. A recent HUGE shift of career change and my health have monopolized my time but I'm ready to start picking up the brush and plunking myself in front of the computer more often to share my world of art. I've also started listing my art again through Etsy. Check it out www.logansmeadow.etsy.com I'll also take the opportunity to announce an upcoming endeavour I'll be undertaking in the next week or so. I'll be launching my artwork in greeting card format soon and you can gift prints of some new art that I'm sure you will all love. Please stay posted for more details which I should have ready by the end of this week. And as always, THANK YOU for following my art and my blog!

The finish line approaches....

Well I think I'm almost there! The piece itself is now complete however I still have yet to frame it properly and sign, etc. Now to figure out what I want to do re: hanging (which I will be sure to post when it's in it's final area). It's nice to get a larger finished piece out after such a long break!

On a roll......

Well I guess I'm a lot more driven than I give myself credit for. For now, at least. Today after putting my little boy who's home sick from school back to bed I decided to pick up my brush again. While I want to take a real break, this (blogging) will have to do as I have to keep moving in case the paint on my "palette" dries. Laundry will have to wait. So far I'm pleased but not completely won over. However that said, my husband pointed out I pretty much dislike every piece while it's in progress which is definitely the case here. I'm looking forward to finishing this that much more though because my self critical nature tends to push me into some pretty interesting work. With that I'll post a pic of the continued work in progress and get back to it....remixing a colour exactly with a piece needing the continuity this one requires is next to impossible. I hope you like it.......although posting it I'm acutely aware I need to rent a carpet cleaner ;)
****edit**** So I'm finally all done for the day! Here's the end result of today's work. I had to remix a little new paint, however thankfully I was able to match it - phew!

It's been a year?!?!?

Shut the Front Door! Wow, can't believe it's been over a year since I last posted anything on my blog.....another sign that I've definitely chosen the right area to focus on this year. I don't do New Year's resolutions, however this year I think I have made an affirmation - to focus more on my creative side. The past year has been a hard one personally filled with an ongoing struggle/frustration in my professional life and an ongoing development of dealing with other personal things....all of which obstructed my creativity. Now enough of that.....this year...I plan on focusing more on my art and using my creativity as a proper outlet and hopefully inspiration to help me in my continued work on myself this year. To help in this I've started a new piece. The intent is to keep this in my own private collection but this may change. With that I give you a few shots of my current Work In Progress, which as of yet still remains to be named.
