Square Foot Art



Last month I took part in AWOL gallery's square foot show. The art show consists of hundreds of paintings from artists, all of them created in a one foot by one foot square format. Then, all these "square foot" canvases are arranged in a grid on the walls of the gallery. There are so many wonderful ideas there!



I entered 2 paintings. One of Frida on her bike, and one of a gypsy fortune teller. Frida sold, and now I am offering the fortune teller up for grabs on ebay!



May your future be bright!

Wrestle Mania!



One thing I've learned about cats is, they love to act crazy in the night! As soon as I turn the lights off Lily starts tearing around the apartment like a maniac. We now have a ritual of wrestling at bedtime. I get her food out for the night, put down fresh water for her, turn out the lights and then we WRESTLE! She loves it! The plus side is it gets her tuckered out and ready to sleep the night through. My newest painting shows me and Lily doing our nightly wrestle. Below is a photo of Lily when she was just a kitten wrestling with a little pink purse toy I got her. :)

Bedtime Stories



I like to read in bed. It calms my mind down and makes me sleepy. My cat Lily always snuggles behind my legs when I'm reading. She knows I'll be still for a long time so she makes herself comfortable.

I got a new comforter. It has pretty red cherry blossoms all over it. I loved the way it looked like a drawing so I had to get it. Lily made herself right at home on it. (She is making a silly face!)

Sweet dreams!

Flossie!


Meet my mom's new little baby puppy Flossie! Isn't she just the cutest little thing?!!!
My mom found an ad on the internet of someone wanting to give up their puppy because they didn't have enough time for her. My mom fell in love with her sweet little face and rushed over to their house to adopt her! YAY! Now Flossie has the BEST home in the world!


Here is Flossie in my mom's garden. Do you seen Monet in the background? My mom painted that!
Flossie loves to be out in the flowers and sometimes she even digs in the garden. My mom calls her a "tomboy" because of this :)


I was inspired by sweet little Flossie and put her in a babushka :)
WOOF!
