5 Little Pumpkins



Wishing everyone a "spook-tacular" Halloween! Thought I would share with you one of our favorite Halloween Poems, so cute. Well it is really windy today here in my little studio so I may just see some pumpkins rolling out of sight, or down the street, better check on my guys on the porch.
I have been working on some new shadow boxes and a few goodies for the Holiday season, stay tuned for more updates. My next release of new items will be on the 15th of November.

Little Artist








I think my daughter shares the same interest in art as me! I am really impressed by her drawings that she has been working on lately, she just goes off and works on a picture and them comes back and shows me, I really started to notice some talent when she showed me this sunset picture and the Horse she made, and the heart with all the designs around it! I know what to get her for Christmas! Art Stuff! I have kept all her work and put them into a booklet so we can look back to see what she has done, she works on journals too, amazing art her age, but I guess I have groomed her along the way, with what I do. This week she brought home a book from the library called Georiga's Bones, she picked it out herself, most times she will get something like My Little Pony, but she liked this one, I like it too, it is a children's book about the artist Georgia O Keefe, the pictures are wonderful, it tells the story about her as a child growing up and attracted to things in nature, she loves to draw and paint and grows up to be an artist.

The Primitive Gathering


Today I have a guest feature spot on The Primitive Gathering , I have listed some one of a kind works, so drop by for a peek if you wish. I have been busy working on some Christmas Tyme Decorations, I made some pretty little woodcut ladies and 18th century shoes, along with some tiny beeswax candles, this set is just the right amount to decorate a little tree with. I have some cats and heart woodcuts to finish this week, for another little tree. These are available in my shop.

Autumn Greetings








With the crisp fall air and the bittersweet colours of the leaves we can't not take some of these warm inviting colours into our nest. I have been busy creating some wonderful paper goods and folk art treasures inspired by the fall season. I will be joining a artists group called The Primitive Gathering as a guest for October 15th, I have made some new works that will be exclusive to that release date, so watch for some new pretties. Here is a sneak peek of some of my early prim wares.
