stormy morning

unexpected treasures

ahoy! i mean, hello! hope the sun is shining where you are this morning. i am off to the children's museum with my child in a bit, but i wanted to share a few treasures from my favorites - both old and new - before i ship out. :) p.s. see my new treasury east for more. without further ado, from top to bottom: "bisque and cloth doll" at blogbloglog, "piers hardware handyman tool necklace" by contrary, "she waited for the ice to melt - print" by thisisalliknow, "lost in chopin print of original drawing" by irenaspohia, "silver decayed and mended ring" by sana, and "three strand brass disc bracelet" by juliegarland. happy earth day!

little bits of spring

sunny skies again today. the leaves on the tree outside my window are bright green and are growing so fast. it's chilly though - better bundle up today. so, from top to bottom these pretty bits of spring can be found here: "black s/s crew neck tshirt - level monday" by sealmaiden, "importance archival print" by swallowfield, "i'll follow you - 8x8 fine art photograph" by susannahtucker, "personal circle" by locallibrary, "vintage enamel coffee mugs" at winkinpossum, and the gorgeous "orbit necklace" by dotoverdot. a happy monday to you!

fresh

there's something lovely and mysterious about this collection i think - it feels fresh like spring, dreamlike & summery all at the same time. if any of that makes sense. it's early. :) from top to bottom: "wooden" by latenightdrawing, "kitchen tools" at findingfabulous, "the thick" by erintyner, "pair vintage jade green urn vases" at birdie1, "house 1" by britthermann, and "trio of flower frogs" at chesteranddonkey.

so pretty it hurts

monday, monday & new work

monday monday, so good to me. love that song! hope everyone had a nice weekend. i was up in vermont and have a few new paintings to share - "franklin & eleanore", and "bird house". both just listed in my shop. i hope to have a new collection of images to share later today, but for now...off to music class with my boy. and the sun is shining!!

big dreams for fox

soon to be listed! i just finished this painting on an old canvas of my mother's that i used once as a pallete. i am generally happy with how it turned out, but i also like it because the canvas is old, and it is fun to think of my mother as a young woman purchasing it somewhere in the 50s. i have a few more of her canvases that i have also used as palletes in my studio in vermont. i think i'll keep at least one. we'll see.

little pig, little pig, let me in!

and you know the rest of the story! these lovely images are a sneak peek of my next treasury, inspired by vintagebycrystal's wonderful big bad wolf. i am still collecting images, but i was anxious to share these because i am having so much fun with this little project. :) from top to bottom: "hey hay hey" by thetwominds, "spun cotton vintage inspired big bad wolf" by vintagebycrystal, "blowing in the wind" by tigtacglow, "piggy no. 6" by feaverish, "pig calls" by tinacrespo, and "good day for listenin' to jazz" by helenesmith.

let the sun shine in : take II

i am obsessed with the sun right now. there has been so much rain, and so many gray days that whenever we have a gorgeous day like today, my mood and motivation seem to skyrocket. so, here is yet another tribute to the light. from top to bottom these lovely things can be found here: "the griffith scalloped shorts" by alexandragrecco, "single wavelength" by sarahjohnafana, "solitaire sunshine yellow crystal drop on sterling silver chain, sweet necklace" by ripegoods, "helium whisper halter dress in vintage ivory knit and white silk" by quarks, "crystalline morning" by bomobob, and "beach vacation cocktail ring ocean sand beach glitter" by angelblackdesigns.
