After a nice long vacation from blogging I have tons of great things to show off!  I can't wait to show you everything.  first, some of the paintings I have been working on.

MURAL PAINTING MADNESS!

This is one of the things I've been working on this past month.  HUGE mural at Venture Kidz Day Care Center.  The hall is 60ft long and I will be painting both sides.  The tree above is the first named "big tree", real creative name, I know!  All the colors were picked for me...I may try to pick my own colors for the next trees.  We'll see if I can get away with it. 

I was "OUT TO LUNCH" for way to long. BUT I have tons of work to share.  I'll try to get on my blog more often and start posting regular like a good blogger. 

NURSERY DECORATIONS

I helped my Sis-In-Law with her nursery awhile ago.  The butterfly, dragonfly, moth painting is pen & ink and watercolor.  My favorite medium to work with!  Then we stuck a bunch of vinyl cling decorations on the wall.  Above the door I painted an owl.  LOVE OWLS!  I think I'll make a few more owls up there and get rid of the vinyl clings.  They don't match the owl.  Anyway, it was a fun day.

BIG MURAL

This is a mural I did for Andy's 3rd grade class room. They are going to study geography and Indians. The teacher needed a painting with mountains, hills, valleys, rivers, coastal range, and streams. It measures 8ft by 3ft. This is the biggest thing I've ever painted. I used tempura paint on heavy paper. It turned out more colorful than I intended, as does all my work, but people seem to like it.
