Seeing Stars (and Rainbows, and Cupcakes)!

Still finding time to play these days and so I'm catching up on another online workshop I took with Mindy Lacefield called... Frolic! Even the name sounds delightful, doesn't it?

I'm still having a blast creating these wonderfully colorful, lusciously layered backgrounds. Rain drops seem to be a common symbol for me. Not sure why.

 Maybe because raindrops make rainbows?

And rainbows grow cupcakes (just kidding!). I just wanted to say cupcake!

But really I'm just happy to be brave enough to put paintbrush, pastel and pieces of ephemera to paper (or in this case... cardboard). Sometimes the scariest part is just to begin. Remembering how to play is hard for me at times... but frolicking sounds like so much fun!

Recently Listed: Carnival Fun - Mixed Media Assemblages

I am excited to announce that I have completed all ten of the carnival-style assemblages I'd been working on before vacation and have listed a few of them on my Etsy shop. Each one has a personality all it's own and I have some monochromatic color schemes as well as the typical circus colors available. Each one is hand painted then distressed and features vintage and everyday bits and baubles. You can find them listed in my Carnival and Circus Fun section. Happy Shopping!
