been slowly adding to my collection of acrylic portraits
i think twenty nineteen will go down as the year when i painted the most faces and that makes me feel happy and accomplished
happy ARTsy wednesday friends!
this girl is on her way to her new home in seattle
with both Lilian and i creating so much art lately i decided to start documenting it here again with these ARTsy wednesday posts
here are some of her recent works
happy ARTsy wednesday!
well, i bought a pack of eight small canvases and i said i was going to paint a small collection of acrylic portraits and i did it!
i know it may not seem like a lot but as most of you must know yourselves, time is a luxury these days
i compromised my morning walk/run in order to paint but it was totally worth it!
it felt wonderful to paint every day and to be able to fill a canvas with something
i may buy another pack of eight canvases and keep going….
happy ARTsy wednesday friends!
temperatures changed drastically this week
it was in the low forties in the mornings (and almost all day yesterday) and it’s in the thirties right now (it’s a little after six in the morning)
it’s like we went from summer straight to winter (let’s not talk about how it already snowed in west virginia)
but this crazy fast change in weather won’t stay
true autumn weather is in the forecast and i am looking forward to it
hope you guys are enjoying the change of season where you are
happy friday friends!
early morning walks and preferred architecture. clean, modern, brick free
sevilla memories
a playdate
miami dog always looking for the sunshine. i am guilty of the same
autumn light and shadows
saturday morning hammock snuggles
that tiny beauty mark by her eyeball tho
reading trump tweets
my collection of acrylic portraits is growing. as of yesterday there are six
Lily’s amazing elephant
all the green babies will soon need to come inside but i am putting it off as much as i can because this space will look sad and empty without them
looks and moods
this week we were all a little off trying to fight whatever little cold was trying to get us
we were all a little slower, a little achy and a little sniffly
but, we pushed on through and kept going with our regular routine
looking forward to the weekend so we can just take it easy and get some extra sleep
happy friday friends!
last friday’s happy hour with my favorite girl
our hibiscus keep on blooming and it always makes me so happy
obsessed with being a contortionist
we took Lily to the circus and not only did she dress the part but she found her second family
i took my things to the sunday market and sold a bunch of stuff
i also brought home a new pitcher (it was free)
orange season
panama city beach memories. so good!
miami dog who always finds the sunny spots
i started painting with acrylics this week. felt so freeing!
new stamp and blockprint by Lily. she’s slowly getting ready for the big crafty fair in december
wow! friends, the last artsy wednesday post was… well, june of this year but, the one before that was may of twenty eighteen!
do you remember long ago when they were a weekly thing?
anyway, it was rainy and gloomy yesterday so i decided to stay in pajamas and doodle a little
it had been a very very long time and it felt great once i got passed the nervous stage of trying to remember how to draw again
it always feels good to turn a blank piece of paper/canvas into something
happy ARTsy wednesday friends!
how about some amazing (and free) art on huge walls to brighten up the week?
you guys know how much i love wynwood
and even if it is just a quick drive by, i need to visit/see it every time we are in miami
on this particular morning, we started with acai bowls and took our time looking at all the new art and shops (not pictured)
hope you are all having a great week so far!
one of the things i have always loved about miami is the art
it is everywhere
in the architecture, painted on large walls free for everyone to see, in so many art galleries and museums….
miami is art
after a day at the pool with the girls, i dropped them off at Savannah’s house for a sleepover and had a big girls night out in southbeach
it started with the opening of Sheila Hicks at the bass museum and it ended with a walk down memory lane through the hotels on collins avenue where i used to hang out back in the day
i miss those kind of miami nights
i saw more art and color in one day/night in miami than i have living here in asheville for the past almost four years
thus the reason why my soul aches living here in these mountains
especially in the winter time
happy friday friends!
Ugo Rondinone, miami mountain. entering the bass. i want to go see these in the nevada desert
Sheila Hicks. she blew my mind. and to make it all even better, she was present at her opening
my good friend Jane and i
a wonderful exhibit by the Haas brothers
all beaded
with my friend and ex co-worker Jocey at the shoreclub hotel where i worked at a high-end retail store for six years
at one of my favorite hotels, the national where we had a drink, took in some live music and the color changing pools
