AARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!

"I can't stand it! I just can't stand it!!!" -- Who said that? I think it was Charlie Brown. That's how I feel tonight! I sketched this wonderful angel who was delicate, beautiful, and unique!! I sketched her on my canvas, (trying canvas tonight) and by the time I'm done, she is a totally different creature! Why does that happen? I want the original angel I had planned. The other angel is ok, I like her, but I LOVED the sketch!!!!

Anyway, I'm going to be posting some art to ebay soon. And I have decided to put up some prints on etsy. They will be prints that I embellish with acrylic, shimmering, shiny, stuff. I hope that they turn out. They are really small, so I am wondering if I offer them at a small price if it will be worth it to put them on etsy, because I read that I have to post each individually. Perhaps I can sell them as a sheet, (they are printed on a large sheet). What do you think, Etsy people?

Another watercolor!

Well this one turned out just like the girl in the painting wanted. She certainly is unique. I love painting this way! I never really know how things will turn out until I draw her on the paper. I have a vague idea of what I want to draw and paint, but usually the idea emerges as I draw. I love working this way.

Do you like this one? She is similar to the other girl holding stars and moons, etc.

An angel!

This angel turned out, yay! The other one is still in my studio, looking at me with a sad expression because I deserted her. I will have to work on her and let you see the result, once I'm happy with it. I hope she doesn't turn into one of the ones I paint over!!

I really like the peacefulness of this one. I wondered if I should change the lettering to be more serious, like a cursive type. What do you think?

Fun from last night!

I was trying to paint an angel which didn't turn out how I wanted it, so I stopped and started a watercolor. It's funny how this one turned out and I am still laboring over the angel.



I read so many blogs in which people post such important things. I feel like I am lucky to get my artwork posted. Oh, well. I am off to a new day and I feel good that I have some art to share.

Yippeee!

My application for an art endorsement through my state office of education got approved!! I will get to teach art next year! They are sending me a letter to tell me what classes I will need to take to earn this endorsement. Meanwhile, through another program, I can teach while I am working on it!

I am amazed and happy. I know that God has given me this wonderful gift of teaching art this next year and I am sooo grateful.
