Put On A Happy Face

A special order is always fun to do. I integrate a little more of the dancer's frame and hair than a general painting. 5678 Dance Studio is having their Spring Recital tomorrow. "Put On A Happy Face" is a surprise for a three year old tap dancer! I'll be excited to see her receive her gift from her proud mom.

on December 15, 2012. What fun! It's been a push to get them done on time, but I'm very pleased with the results. Each showcases a costume from this Nutcracker performance and bring out the character's role in the story beautifully. Every one is done in acrylics on 16"x20" canvas. The paintings have turned out great but the ornaments I have created from them are nothing but cute, cute, cute. Every year at Christmas, I pull out all the ornaments that bring back the best memories for me and my family, and I can envision that these ornaments could do the same in years to come for a young girl to remember her role in this production. For others, the Nutcracker is such a beloved Christmas tale that any one of these ornaments would make a great memory for someone's favorite part of the story.. Check out the ornaments here!

Anticipation for Spring

I couldn't wait for Anne Marie to send me the costumes she has chosen to be featured in my paintings this year so I started painting ballerinas--a puppy and 3 teddy bears. They were so much fun to paint!

Victoria's Roses

Digital Art I have been working on. I took a painting I did for Victoria's room and remixed it in a really cool little photo editing ap, Pixlr-o-matic. Spiffy! Now I have put them up for sale as cards and prints at Fine Art America.
