Girlies at last

Yep that's right I am now back in the art room and this is my first batch of girlies, I do hope you like them, it felt fabulous getting painty again :o)

These 5 are all now in my etsy shop waiting for new homes to live in.


Soon it will be spring and time to dance with the butterflies in the garden again, my favourite season is just around the corner and I can't wait :o)

Dance With Butterflies:

Taking a few moments of time each day to appreciate the goodness in life is always a good plan.

Stop to smell the flowers:

Obviously all the work we have been doing to our house is still on my mind with this one.

This little house of mine:

Ah those were the days, nothing better to do than play hopscotch or hula hoops and sometimes both together ;o)

Hopscotch and Hula Hoops:


Ever since I took Mindy Lacefield's 'frolic' online class last year I've had bunnies on my mind, more and more are creeping their way into my artwork and I don't mind at all ;o)

Dreaming of fluffy bunnies:

And for those of you wondering here is a corner of my new calmer workspace, it is so much more peaceful in here now and I love it!! The work is still not complete on the rest of the room but hopefully it won't be too much longer :o)


Ah it's good to be back, see you again next week with another Etsy shop update
