New Bookmarks...

I finally got these laminated so they can go up on my Etsy store, and since I've been busy crocheting, cleaning house, making "The Butterfly Project" button and learning how to add Pinterest to my posts (in LOVE with Pinterest), I've had no time to finish the two pieces of art I have on the go now. They sit on my lonely desk in my art room. They call to me as I sit, guiltily doing other things instead of painting.

I therefore thought I'd at least post some sweet content to keep you all happy. I especially love the orange flower. It turned out beautifully. (I'm visiting Pinning & Singing, Sweet Saturdays, Serenity Now Saturday & Palette & Paint Thursday, on the left, I posted my palette for the flower and another piece not posted today). I also love the back of the double sided bookmarks. I inked up the backs, defining the abstract watercolor painting and I think it really improved it. Adding ink to the back of these small pieces is helping to buoy my confidence to add pen & ink to some of the abstracts I've done in the past. One in particular could really use it. I just looked at it one day and saw an amazing pink rose in the middle with myriad leaves surrounding it. Let me go see if I can find it...

      

Title: "Abstract Rose"

Matted Painting

So, do you see a rose (side view) surrounded with different kinds of leaves in the abstract painting? I'm getting more confident to try to define the rose I see. I'd love to hear your opinion.

Finally, I'm attaching my "Butterfly Project" button from my sidebar, so if you want to add it to a blog post you can feel free to grab it. Just right click and choose "copy link". Then when you are doing your post just click the "insert image" in the toolbar and add it as a URL. I'm so hoping that more people hear about this wonderful tribute to the children who died in the Holocaust. If you want more information, I posted about The Butterfly Project in this post.

I'm now on Pinterest, if you'd like to follow my pins, just click on the follow me on Pinterest button to the right of this post. You can also pin any painting/image on my site just by clicking the "Pin It" button situated at the end of each post. Clicking the button will bring up all the images on my site, you just choose what you want to pin! Have at it, people. I'll see you on Pinterest! It's addictive.

I will be back with both a painting and probably the crochet project I've been working on (headbands & fingerless gloves). I'll even post the instructions if they're free to the public. Cool.

One more thing, I'm playing along with "Six Word Saturday" at Show My Face, where you describe your life right now in 6 words... (my entry's a little tongue-in-cheek, hehehe)

I'm Too Busy For Words!

One last thing, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! to my most favorite male person on this whole planet. I can't believe you're 18. Wow. I'm so proud to know such a stellar human being as you. Much love from me.

We'll talk soon,
I just made a hazelnut coffee... Mmmm. :o)
Best,
