Sketchbook Project 2011 (pages 16 & 17)





Good morning, it's FRIDAY!!!!!!
Here are pages 16 & 17 for this morning. I decided to use watercolors on the faces of these two and then I used acrylic paints in similar more bold colors on the outer pattern. I was pleased with these ones because I really wanted to have a softer look on their faces.

    Beautiful, love the colors. It is amazing that you can keep coming up with the different ideas for backgrounds and colors - my mind would be black about now.

    Hi Rebecca~ these are fabulous! I love the green and pink combo too, but both are great! I got my necklace today and it is even more gorgeous than it looked in your shop! I just love it! Are you going to do more?...I would love to get one for my sister's birthday.

    Love them! I love the one on the right... it made me think of the wigs that they used to wear to look more sophisticated... like in Mary Antoinette days.

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
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.
