"Treasured Moments"








This was a really fun journal page. I wanted to capture this memory of me with my girls. Of course they were pretty much looking over my shoulder a lot of the time when I was working on it. This page was done with an old pen and ink illustration of mine surrounded by some watercolor washed pages and some patterned images. I could draw 24 hours a day. Drawing doesn't seem to get old, it's always an escape even if commotion surrounds me. Today we are off to the pool so we will see if I can get some work done without getting splash marks on my journal. If I do I will make it work with my design. See you soon!

Happy Valentines Day!!
These are little Valentines Mice made out of little white stones. I stuck felt hearts on them and then embelished them with bows and eyes. This is a fun Valentines Day craft for my daughter's second grade class!

India

Meet India, she is such a treasure! I made from a tea cup I brought back from India last year. She sits 6 1/2 inches tall. The base she sits on is a beautiful square plate I found in Crate & Barrel that matched the tea cup perfectly. India has been embellished with fabrics I also brought back with me. Her hair is a combination of wool and acrylic fibers and she is jeweled with brass accents. India has henna patterns on the souls of her feet and around the tops of her arms and sits in this peaceful position as she meditates. She's waiting to sit in your home and bring you peace.

Art Doll Mable

Art Doll Mable
Meet Mable, she's trying her best to keep her skin glowing. She believes in nourishing her body from the inside out but once a week a good facial mask and cucumbers on her eyes make all the difference in the world. She stand 8 inches tall and would love to sit on the side of your tub or on your dresser. She could spend hours in the bathroom! * Mable is an original one of a kind decorative Art Doll and not meant to be played with as a toy.
