Good Night, Sleep Tight

"Good Night, Sleep Tight".. wouldn't that be lovely... I'm writing this after a pretty decent night's sleep - for having a 2 month old baby. Since having this little baby, a good night of sleep is something that I dream about! This cute little cat cradle was painted for Breck School's annual applause auction. I believe it's my third year of painting something for the auction, previous items were an ABC table and chair set and the "Get on Board" table and chairs. (click on the Furniture label on the right to see). I was happy to paint it for my school, and even happier when I saw who received the doll cradle in the end. Now ... back to bed for a quick little snooze before you-know-who wakes up.

Christian's Birthday Party

I was contacted by a friend of a friend... and she wanted some invites, a T-Shirt, and party hat for her son's First Birthday Party. We met for coffee, and talked about what she had wanted, and having seen some of my previous work, she wanted my elephant illustration to be a part of the design. She and I also added in the ideas of the cake and little bug friend... Overall - I think it came together in a very adorable sort of way! Happy 1st Birthday, Christian!

Fall Art Show : 3D work.

So... I was invited to show some of my work at my school's gallery. I am sharing the gallery with another art teacher, and a lot of her work is 2D, so I did a lot more 3D..(with some 2D.). I'm thankful to have the opportunity to show some of my items . .and looking forward to seeing the other art work! Here is a taste of some of the items:

Fall Art Show : 2D work.

Here is a taste of some of the 2D work that I did for the gallery. I'm really workin' the pig, owl and elephant theme ... I guess it's what is going in my mind at the time? I'm sure I'll move on to new animals eventually!
