Creeping Wisteria

We were just talking about how beautiful wisteria is and today it showed up, peeking over the fence in the backyard. Happy Spring! Pin It

Bridesmaids' luncheon invitations

I haven't posted any new artwork in a while so here is my latest project. I watercolored this bouquet to tailor it to the bride's flowers and colors: Pink roses, green hydrangea and white stephanotis. The bride plans to carry these flowers tied in a green ribbon. The ribbon color came out strange in this photograph but in reality it is close to the dark green in the painting. The centers of the stephanotis flowers are embellished with pearls and each invitation is printed on cream linen paper and mounted on textured pink art paper. Pin It

First beautiful weekend of the year!

I was truly excited for such a warm and clear weekend after the snow and all the rain we have had! Saturday we spent the day outside at The Exceptional Foundation's chili cook-off and then on Sunday, Joel and I walked to Moss Rock and hiked around. We did a little bouldering, played with Dusty and even saw a fox in broad daylight (that may or may not have been rabid). We spent pretty much the entire day outside and it made me remember why I love spring and just being outdoors in general. It is such a natural mood enhancer and does wonders for the soul. Pin It
