Week 16: It's Still Sunday Somewhere in the World...

This week I was inspired by my friends mother-inlaw's home.  It is so bright and colourful and filled with great pieces of art!  This is me trying to replicate the brightness.

I was working until about 2 minutes ago and when I tried to take a picture of it my camera died... So sorry that there is only one crappy photo and that there isn't a side view, but I might put another shot up tomorrow.

Until next week...which is literally 2 minutes from now!

Week 15 : The Apple of My Eye

I had my first craft show of the season this past Saturday at Blooming Earth Eco Fair in Kitchener.  

It got rained out, but the organizers moved us inside city hall, so it was pretty cool.  There was some pretty amazing crafts there.  I'm always so amazed with creative people and the beautiful things they create!

 

       My favourite part of the day was when this band played 

 called The Tra La Las

You can also find them on Facebook too!  You should check them out!  Super fun!

This week is dedicated to my first born.  He turned 17 on the 1st of April.  Seventeen years ago I met one of the most awesome people I know, except he was a little less awesome back then, all he did was demand stuff and go number 1 and 2 in his pants.  

He did the graffiti in the background and I did a painting of him doing so...  I think it turned out ok.  I think I want to do another one of him though, because I can't see his gorgeous baby blues in this one.

Anyway...here is is

Hope you like it!

Until next week...

Week 14 : Alienating My Only Paying Customer

Tried this drawing/painting/sketch 3 times, for a friend.  They say the 3rd times the charm, but THEY are filthy no good liars! 

This is what I called it quits with, the best attempt 

out of the 3...

Sorry friend, I really did try!

My thinking is that I don't work well under pressure.  I don't know though.  It really bums me out when I don't get it perfect.  I should be getting better by week 14...

 

ah well, whatever right?  Don't be so hard on my self, blah blah blah...

Sometimes it's hard!

 

Only 38 more weeks to go!  Posting this Wednesday for sure!  Going to be a wicked artist! hahaha

 

Until next week...

Week 13 : Ever Wonder What Over 100 Rosettes Look Like?

Yeah, me neither.

But here it is nonetheless!

I promise that next week I will have something worth viewing.

Until next week...
