WHEW! 3 posts in one day! I promise to be quiet after this!! But I did get most of the video so I'm posting it here :O)Enjoy! xo Michele

Another Angel :o)


I couldn't help finishing this one up for this week ;o) She's on a oval piece of pine that's 11 x 14 with a nice routed edge. I wood burned her in, then painted her with acrylics, and sealed her with bees wax :o) Oh and I used some mica powders on her halo and dress! Sides are painted a dark brown! Really like how she came out!! As always I love hearing your comments! She'll be on ebay tonight (Thurs.) at 8 pm central time. I taped a video of her but something happened in the middle of it with the camera or the tape...will have to see what's left of it! xo Michele

Has this ever happened to you?


Okay all you artists out there...I'm wondering if this has ever happened to you. This painting was my trouble child. I have worked on her and worked on her and worked on her! Nothing seemed to just flow like normal, nothing worked, she wasn't please no matter what color the background was, no matter what color her hair or dress! She started out as a blonde with a white dress lol. No wings. No bird. Finally I gave in and listened to what she wanted...wings. She wanted wings. Well I guess we could all use a fashion angel I thought LOL and certainly some that I have seen and wondered why they didn't have one! So, she got wings, and not just any wings! Wings made from an article on fashion from a vintage home journal dated February 1911. What could have been more perfect? I certainly hope she works! Let me know your thoughts on her! I'm going to list her on ebay tonight. xo Michele

On The Horizon


I'm listing this wistful folk art girl tonight on ebay she's 20 x 24 on a box canvas. Mixed media- acrylics, charcoal, scrapbook paper. She has such a sad and lonely look on her face. Guess that's how I was feeling last week! I really love how she looks though.

So does everyone has superbowl plans? I'm not a football fan (sorry! give me hockey anyday!) but this is the one day that we go to superbowl parties and it's more about the eating to me than the football lol! Hubby wants the Steelers to win, I kinda want to see Warner get another ring...he's such a kind, giving person. Does so much for the communities.

Anyway, let me know what you all think of the new painting! Have a great day, whatever you do! xo Michele
