In Progress: another painting in Garden Series

Self Portrait 3 of 30

To celebrate my 30th birthday, I am painting 30 self portraits for my 30th year. This one is #3 of the 30 part series.

The Year of the Dragon

Jan 23rd is the Chinese New Year. This year is the year of the Dragon. In celebration (and because I just read the Inheritance Cycle- a series about dragons & their riders- THAT I LOVED) I decided to challenge myself to painting a few dragons this weekend. I think they turned out alright considering I've never even sketched one of these creatures before.

Self Portrait 2 of 30

Well, between last night and this morning, I ruined 2 watercolor self portraits.

When I set out for the third I decided to try using purple as a base coat- I think it turned out surprisingly well.

Hand Painted Owl Greeting Cards

More Owl ART!

Apparently, i'm a wee bit obsessed. I have many many other things to be painted- but if I dont lock my watercolors up in another room I wont go 20 minutes with out painting a freakin' OWL!




To see more, please check the ESTY site. Thank you!

Ive been watercolor painting owls like a mofo!

I have recently re-discovered watercolor paints. I bought a cheep set awhile back and have been meaning to get back into them. Last night I decided to see how well they would do on blank card stock packaged for card making.

holy-moly! Once I started painting these critters I couldn't stop. I smattered watercolors on everything within reach of my desk. The two paintings above the text are normal sized (9x12inches) and everything below this text is a greeting card or in process of becoming one.



I hope you are enjoying this little owl mania I've been going through. Feel free to check ETSY for even more Owl art of mine.
