Arts and Crafts Movement

  Last week's craft show was great.  I didn't make tons of money but met a
lot of nice people and connected with friends I haven't seen in a while.
One customer friend said "I just really like the way you draw."  That made
it all worth while:)
  I shoulda woulda coulda told you in advance I wouldn't have time to post
last week, apologies if you tuned in to see no new post.
  Remember I mentioned I was going to try to do some paintings on wood?
I managed to do two small paintings based on a couple sketches.  These
acrylic paintings were especially fun to paint.

I left a bit of the wood exposed on the

Bright! Elf which I think made it a little 

more interesting.  

The sides of the "canvas" were crying out 

for color so I painted them as well.  

The gold paint is from a tiny bottle of enamel. 

I finished each with a coat of Modge Podge 

avoiding the gold areas-

I found it makes the gold look dull.

     





Be Merry and Bright! 

                                                                                                       Here are a few items in my booth.
If you see any items you would like to purchase
please let me know via email.  I sold a few of these items but I will do custom orders
for your special someone;)

Notice the sides of the paintings?
