i have really missed working in the studio. there are truly a million new things that i'd love to be making...they fill the pages of my sketchbooks and on scraps of paper all over my desk. i am so anxious to get back to it full time. As i was uploading pics off of my phone, i discovered that i had actually made quite a bit of new art over the past few months. I guess it was just the sporadic nature of it that makes me feel like i've not been very productive. Most of it has been custom requests. Thought i would show you what i have been up to.
i painted that sign to put over my desk, to remind me...
the wallpaper on my monitor is also an original painting of mine...made for a sweet friend.
i used white water based sharpies to leave these messages for Mark and the kids...
I made 30+ of these lucky signs for St. Pat's...
a custom request from a dear friend, for her home...
My nephew needed a raccoon mask for the school play...coming right up! I painted it on acrylic paper and attached it to old 3D glasses from the movies...
another special request...client supplied the bucket. But, i'm thinking this might have to be a new item from whimsy studios. Can't you just see it filled to the brim with icy cold beverages or rolled up beach towels this summer? Ahhhhh, summer...
Made these for my church's Mardi Gras silent auction...
Mini hand painted canvases for a baby shower...to match the bedding...
Finally, i had always wanted to create a whimsy studios sign to hang over my studio window. This puppy is 8 ft. long...
Making art is who i am. it is like breathing for me. thank you for letting me share with you, the gift that God has given me. So much more to come, friends....
I LOVE all of this! Especially the sharpie messages on the mirror. Keep it up! You bring joy to the world with your art! ~Lanie J.
