thank you to everyone for all of your support and encouragement! these long nosed characters are new for me, and i’m so happy to have found them through lots of experimenting and playing in mindy lacefield’s paint your story e-course.
i’ve had so much fun creating these new whimsical characters, coming up with their stories and letting my imagination really wander. but no matter how many times i put new art out for the world to see, it’s always a little like the first day of school when it’s a new character.
so thank you!
The weather has been lovely here in Wisconsin, and I’ve been pulling out all of my art supplies and heading out into the backyard and painting, painting, painting! It’s wonderful to be creating while surrounded by flower gardens, birds singing, and baby bunnies hopping about! It’s definitely inspiring these new characters!
And, I realized it’s not the best idea to paint out in the sun with my oil pastels…yet the melted wax did make for an amazing, spreadable layer of thick color!

For this piece, I combined lots of mixed media elements…sumi and india inks, acrylics, wallpaper, oil pastel, chalk pastel and glitter.
This man may be walking down the street beside you or sitting with you on the train. But when his wings come out, you know he has something to say, whispering in your ear to always follow and know your INTUITION.
have you been creating or finding anything new? i’d love to know what you’ve been up to!
and THANK YOU!

Lately I’ve been going back to painting owls. For awhile I had been creating these very renaissance-style portraits with soft, realistic faces and incredible hair. I enjoyed that I could make them look very human, but still full of magic and color. While I still adore creating these flower girls, I found that these paintings were missing something. After countless attempts in the studio, many... Continue reading
