antiquing with these kids...

was suuper nice yesterday! Stephanie and I took a walk downtown, its been really nice and cool here these last few days. I seen some ornate picture frames I wanted real bad, but decided I should wait until I know where we'll be living! :) But see what I passed up? The frame seemed to be priced high at 45.00? It had awesome bowl shaped glass, but it was cracked. I dunno, is that reasonably priced? I'm NOT an experienced thrift shopper! Its the frame here on the right, and I would have spray painted it a funky color! I... Read more →

new print set... created especially for your bathroom!

Hello all! Just a quick post to let you know i've just listed this new print set in the shop. You can also buy them individually. While my cousin has been staying with me, we spent one day last week sitting at the table and drawing. She's always been quite the artist herself, so it was fun to do something we used to do together as kids. :) Anyhow, I was able to get quite a few sketches done. Now I'm just working on coloring them. :) She and her kids went over to moms to spend a few days,... Read more →

cuzins photo shoot!!

...getting the babies in a picture was a little difficult! :) But, we did manage. :) I promised pictures! So, after getting permission I'm pretty excited to share these with you! :) Our photo shoot turned out SUPER! The kids were really great. We bribed them with a surprise, if they acted like good little robots. :) The signs spelling "cuzins" was a complete last minute (as in half hour before meeting up!) idea, but it totally made the shoot. I used 8.5x11 pieces of cardboard (use them for mailing out my prints) and a huge stinky marker! I would... Read more →
