I love birds! There are so many shapes, styles, and colors, which makes them fun to paint. This crane-type bird was painted in my Royal Art Talens art journal, then I created a seamless pattern that can be used for paper, fabric, and wallpaper! I used oil pastels, some watercolor, and pen. I love coral colors, and I thought this combination looked light and fresh, working well for home decor. I have this design available in wallpaper and fabric at Spoonflower! NEW! ... View the Post
Vintage Flowers with Stamp
This painting was fun! for the lavender flowers, I used a wet-on-wet technique. After they dried, I then added the blue and gold. I love the feathery effect that the wet-on-wet technique gives! Of course, I also had to do a bit of splattering. :) I used a stamp set from Creative Expressions Sam Poole for the Paris script and numbers. I added a painted border. I've created a seamless pattern (seen below). This was a fun art journal painting in my Strathmore Visual journal. I hope you try this ... View the Post
Sloppy Joe Casserole & VIDEO

Soho Oil Pastels & VIDEO (The Creamiest?)
When I say that these are the creamiest oil pastels that I have used to date, I mean creamy like butter on a summer day. Amazing! Soho oil pastels are a joy to use, and work well with other brands! Even in their mega-creaminess, I was still able to layer, as you can see in this flower. I've used Canson watercolor paper here. Check out the video below! I also designed a surface pattern. I love this flower. :) Canva editable frames available in the shop! CLICK HERE ... View the Post

Oil Pastel Floral Painting
I'm back with one of my favorite art supplies-oil pastels! These water soluble oil pastels are even easier to use. They layer beautifully, and when slightly diluted in water, spread easily. They are so creamy! Strathmore toned tan paper works very well with oil pastels, and I love how the tan color sets off the bright florals! Do you love to work with oil pastels? I have many videos on my YouTube channel to help you out! I also used a little Lyra crayons and Jane Davenport wax crayons. They ... View the Post
