ART OF THE WEEK...................Der Flieder Mouse

 

So I thought how fun would it be to create a fairy mouse with pretty little butterfly wings and then thought about the opera Der Flieder mouse lol and did a fun play on words and my cartoon style mouse! Fairies always remind me of spring so thus the inspiration.

Have a beautiful week

ART OF THE WEEK.........................Easy Breezy

 

So for this week was inspired by the spring breezes we have been having here in Texas. I love that this time of the year everything feels new though the tempeture says Summer is right around the corner!

ART OF THE WEEK......................The Feisty Fox

 

So this week I am continuing my water color paintings for a full year with my little Feisty fox. I adore the fox they have such great personalities (you know that bigger than life personality!) so I was inspired by that and one of my favorite flowers the rose. This has been a long slow process of pulling myself out of the art funk that has plagued me for so many years and I find it very refreshing trying my hand at a medium I have always feared. Thank you for stopping by and checking out my works!

Have a beautiful day

MARILYN...........An ode in oil pastels

 

So I tried my hand at oil pastels and this is what I came up with an ode to Marilyn Monroe. I started my art journey with oil paints way back in the day and  thought it might be fun to revisit them with my art club at the YMCA. Everyone had a great time and came up with some amazing pieces. I just thought I would share mine with you!

ART OF THE WEEK'...................Butterfly Whispers


Okay so it is no secret I love butterflies and they are in alot of my art works. This one represents how nature can become one with your soul. Like a painting it is full of colors swirling about you......little wonders that a tiny pieces of joy if you just take the moment and look at them. So here is what I think we all should do go out side and drink in the beauty of nature!

ART OF THE WEEK......................Grunge Pixie Dust

 

So as alot of you know I am doing a kids art club at the YMCA and this week I challenged my Teens to take a fairy tale or story character and turn them Gothic. So as a sample I did my Grunge Tinker Bell entitled "Grunge pixie dust". Now keeping with the theme of the year I combined watercolor and inks and did it monochrome to give that Gothic look. Please let me know what you think of her!

Have a beautiful day

ART OF THE WEEK.................Sweet Ophelia

 

This week my inspiration was taken from one of my favorite Shakespeare characters Ophelia. Keeping with my plan to do a year of water colors I am always looking for inspiration in things around me....Stories, plays, music and nature are huge influences in my work. I am having alot of fun playing with watercolors they are freeing and I have to force myself yo be less of a control freak with the art because really they are going to do what they want. Thank you for checking in with me each week!

Have a beautiful Day
