Creativity Scene

Guinness is staring up at me. I am sitting in my chair in my office/studio (read: spare room that I took over and set my computer and easel up in). I have been spending a lot of time being creative lately - with color. Yes, believe it or not, I paint with color. I even painted my bathroom blue the other day! YAY ME! No black bathroom here! At any rate, Guinness and Stella are trying to get my attention after I spent another evening in my room. I wanted to post some of the creative things I have been up to lately as they make me happy!

These are Ukrainian Easter Eggs that my Mom (hey Shirl!) and I made when she was here at Easter. Yes, they still have the raw yolks in them and were made with the layers of melted bees wax and coat after coat of crazy staining dyes. It was awesome! I had tons of fun and it is very therapeutic.


This is a painting I finished the other day...I don't know what to call it, but you get it, it's a seed and sprout.


And finally, this is what I worked on all night. I started her in 2006 and never finished. But, I think she needs to be complete. A couple more hours and she might be done. I bought a couple new brushes and some more paint today (Michael's is 40% off this week) and I have to say that I didn't realize how awesome new brushes could be until I broke down and got some!!!


Now it's time for the Puggies and I to go to the couch. I think there is a new episode of the Haunting on the PVR that we need to watch until Mikey gets home from hockey....

Not sure it the redhead is meant to be a self portrait, but it totally could be. She's little and AWESOME.

Love love love. Keep posting the arty goodness.

My eyeballs thank you.
