Happy St. Patrick’s Day 2014 :~)

Well, if this is not a sign of Spring, then I don’t know what is!  I CAN NOT wait for the first day of Spring, as I’m sure all that live in the Midwest would agree.  It has been one brutal winter for us.  I’m tired of looking at the white stuff!   Well St. Patty’s Day will be here soon!  I created a Irish Ladybird for everyone to enjoy.  She is fashionable too, wearing her orange colored Uggs!!  Can’t have enough four leaf clovers.  Who doesn’t love a little luck!  Wishing you much of that, and always happiness!

Happy Valentine’s Day ~ 2014

As Valentine’s Day draws near, I decided to create a Love bug painting.  Here we have two Ladybugs standing in the thick green grass.  Mr. Ladybird is giving his Ladybug a gift of heart shaped balloons.  It was a lot of fun creating these two bugs.  I used my wonderful ArtRage software, using water colors, and some fun tools to create the balloons, grass, and clouds.  Wishing you and yours a very Happy Valentine’s Day this Friday!   🙂

Happy 2014!! :)

WOW!  2013 is gone forever!!  These years are flying by so very fast for me.  Especially once I had my twins, ten years ago.  I wanted to start out the new year with my newest addition to my art collection, The Prismatic Crested Owl and his little one.  I created this painting digitally, using many mediums.  I think owls are fascinating and majestic, definitely my favorite bird.

Well here is to a new year!  

Wishing you and yours a healthy, wealthy, and very happy 2014!  🙂

Merry Christmas :0)

Well today is Christmas Eve.  My kiddos are already tracking Mr. Claus this morning.  Gotta love technology!  I wanted to post a couple of my most recent holiday paintings.  Created digitally, using many mediums.  From water colors, to airbrush.  
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

The SnowMomma And Her SnowGirl :-)

Well it’s officially a week from Thanksgiving today, November 21, 2013!  It’s so hard to believe the holidays are here already.  The year sure did fly, like it usual.  I’m really enjoying this time of the year (not the cold or snow though!), Christmas is my all time favorite holiday.  So I’ve been creating some holiday relate art.  
Here you have, The SnowMomma and her SnowGirl standing in the middle of a blizzard. Giving each other comfort by snuggling close. Both are wearing warm fuzzy hats, Momma is with a matching scarf. Snow falling all around them. I created this painting digitally, by using watercolors/airbrush.  The image can be found on many products at my Zazzle shop.  Just click above into my Zazzle store link, where you’ll find so much more.  Thanks so much for taking the time to visit my website.  Wishing you and yours a very happy holiday season! 🙂

Merry “Early” Christmas ~

Okay, I know what you’re thinking, “it’s not even Halloween yet!” But, I’ve finished it, my first painting of the holiday season!
The Snowman & His Posse!  
I LOVE snowmen, and this was a great joy to create!  Especially using the airbrush tool.  I also used watercolors.  You’ll find this image available on greeting cards, canvas, and much more.
Now go, and have a very happy, and safe Halloween 😉

Happy Halloween Time :)

It’s that time of year again, kids getting their costumes figured out before the big day.  Families out decorating their yards with spooky decor.  Us parents, using all of their willpower, NOT to open the bags of candy prior to Halloween to take just “one” candy (we’ve failed miserably!).  

Love creating pumpkins, just not the carving part.  So here I’ve created one with no mess, The Textured Pumpkin.  Created digitally, using the airbrush and watercolors.

Have a safe and fun Halloween 2013!

Ladybug Wooing His New Love 🙂

Who doesn’t love the very beginning of a new relationship.  The excitement, mystery, and adventure!  Just thinking about all those familiar feelings, helped me in creating this new painting.

The Ladybug Family!

Here is a painting of the proud ladybug parents, showing off their new addition to the family.  A unique, blue, love bug.  Loved making the flowers in this painting, they almost look a little 3D.
