Painting and Ethiopia Decoration on Etsy

I made these around Christmas and called them ornaments and now that Christmas is over I am calling them "Decorations" :) A couple pictures down is an example of how to display them year round. This one has a heart over Ethiopia....They would make great Valentine's Day presents :) Thanks for your support.

Back

This is a shadow box frame from Michael's craft store. It even came with the pin to hang it with :) This way you can display it all year round.

This sweet mixed media painting just went up on Etsy. I was thinking about my friend that I miss when I started painting it but it transformed into a Mother/Daughter image. It has gold leafing (how do you say that?:) that really makes it stand out. Other materials include: Acrylic and oil paint, papers, glue, ink, graphite, paint pens. It is 8 x 10 and listed at $35 and $5 for shipping. Here is the Etsy link:

Would love some suggestion on subject matter for my next art piece. Adoption art?? Nature?? People?? Inspiring words in the art?? Tell me what style you are drawn to?? I definitely paint from my heart and not to please others, but I am always interested in what others are drawn to.

A couple new pieces...

This one will go up on my Etsy page soon...I'll let you know when it is up.

This is a close up of the words on the art piece.

This one will not be for sale because I used a picture of Belina Eaton's amazing painting to practice painting faces. Her art is out of this world, check her out!!

I may use this one for some sort of art give away....stay tuned :)

Treasure Hunt...

Decided on a treasure hunt yesterday. We have a couple gigantic antique stores in town. I didn't even make it through 1 of them in 2 1/2 hours!!! I so wish we were ready to move into a new house because I saw some great, heavy furniture items that we don't have room for here, and, well, we don't have the money for yet, so it will have to wait. But here are a couple of my finds....Have a great Friday!!!!

Such a cute Owl painting for $15. I LOVE owls and I love the shape of this piece.

Shabby Chic...don't really know if that is what you call it, so a super cool, worn shelf for baby girl's room.

Vintage Ragedy Ann and Andy for baby girl's room.

Ragedy Ann....

Ragady Andy...I can not get over his face....so sweet.
