Laundry List


I'm gearing up for festivals and the local farmer's market, which starts the first Saturday in May. I'm in the process of painting several originals to accompany me, and I have lots of prints to sell from past work. I created a line of natural skin care products to try out at the farmer's market. The picture above is artwork for my Sugared Grapefruit soap.  Unfortunately, I was not pleased with the sizing of some of my product labels. I will have to rethink them once I run through the batch. I hope to get product ready to put in my online shop before the end of the month, but there never seems to be enough time.  I want to revamp the whole website, and gave myself a year's deadline.  If I get it done earlier, I will feel like a BOSS....sounds lazy, but it is really a pressure/no pressure tactic I use on my brain.  Anyway, better get back to work.

A New Doll, Olivia


I just finished this little doll, and her name is Olivia.  She likes the local coffee house, books and her dogs.  Olivia seems to be a bit of a homebody.  I enjoy making art dolls and painting their sweet faces.  It is a nice change up from painting on canvas.
