Hi guys!
Just wanted to share with you a few things that I’ve been finishing up in the studio. I seem to have hit a block lately…I think the grey weather is still getting to me..Ah! Anyone have any winter blah cures?? So yesterday I decided to take a new approach. I went out and found some old frames for some smaller pieces and I filled a couple of them with a few little watercolours I had made a while back. I think they worked out! They are simple but they really show off the characters that live in them. Here are the two framed works:
Can you spot my toes at the bottom of the picture?! Haha! Oops!
I decided instead of moping around wondering what the heck comes next that I would just work on what I knew needed to get done! I also took the time to finish up my whale peice by adding on to the stage. The top now has a nice decorative part! I added some gold paint too! It made a big difference!
Annd…I’ve been sketching out ideas , but none of them seem to really stick! I think I have a lot more sketchin’ to do!
Barn owls are pretty neat though! I love their flat faces….I just don’t like the way they do the can-can in my drawings. Hah! That’s it for today!
Love these!!! Love how they are too big for their frames – nothing can keep these guys back! 😉 Also love the owls doing the can-can – hilarious idea and image!
For winter blues, I’ve found coconut scented shampoo to be a lovely reminder of summer!!
Hi Bryanna
I love seeing your art, and seeing how the whale came about was fascinating. (keep in mind, I’m a science teacher, so this is not at all in my realm!) I can’t wait to see what you do with the owls. I love owls.
I’m coming to Hali this weekend. Cathy is taking me to Neptune Sat night. Maybe we’ll run into you and Shawn.

Is the whale coming out of the painting? How did you do that?
I just love, love, LOVE your style!! Your colors are so vibrant, and visually stunning!! I just love seeing your beautiful work!! Bravo!!!
