Mini Graffiti Hearts Painting To Spread The Love
Now is a great time to spread the love by painting tiny hearts galore! And while it is true that folks are thinking about hearts as February approaches, hearts are great anytime, and who couldn’t use a little extra love right about now? A mini hearts painting that could also become a mix of hearts to look more like a graffiti hearts painting is a great project to do over the course of a few days, and perfect for beginners. And, if you feel like painting something to give as a gift, this idea done on small canvases would also look great. I’ll admit, it is more difficult that it…

Tiny Painted Hearts Recycled Gift Box!
My love for recycling crafts has now officially married my newish love for painting, and this tiny painted hearts gift box is the proof! It is true, I have been painting recycled gift boxes for a good few months now, you can see the abstract vases box here, and loose abstract flowers here, a large floral painting on a box here, and winter mittens here, and the fun painted apples here. Honestly I have been using them as holiday and kitchen art gallery decor rather than actual gift giving, as there is just something so lovely about stacked boxes adorned with artful paintings and patterns! Plus they fit nicely on…

This week I got back into exploring how to paint clouds, an idea I had started working on a whole year ago, but just didn’t get back to it. And then I painted some llamas with tiny cranes flying overhead, and then I painted some cranes, and then I realized that painting clouds was the natural thing to paint next! So, I painted one spread of clouds that isn’t all that great, and then I painted this spread, which I…

A Peek In My Sketchbook: Mixed Media Migrating Cranes Painting
One thing I can happily say about 2020 is that I was able to stick to my plan of making a “sketchbook practice” part of my creative life! What can I tell you dear readers? While I was once very afraid and sceptical about sketchbooks, I am so very happy that I stuck with it, as today I am a staunch supporter! Sketchbooks or art journals, however you choose to call them, can truly be an amazing place to create, as without pressure to display your work, and without having to worry about what you’ll do with the results, you are FREE to just explore. And at the same time…
