After the HUGE amount of love and appreciation for my first planet painting, I decided to make some more! Can you tell I love these??

Thank you all so much for your continued support of my art and my small business

More new artwork!

This design is a special one to me. I've had this design in my head long before I started painting, but for some reason I just never got around to turning it into art until now. I'm having fun doing it in different colors too, so if you have a request let me know!

I'm also looking for other ideas of things that would look good with wings too! (preferably non-people things)

I'll have some of my new pieces with me, including a music related piece I haven't yet posted ;)

I can't seem to stop making new pieces. This one is for sure an absolute favorite! You might even say a "heart throb".

This piece is made out of a bunch of different paint scraps, literally patchworked together. It's perfect for using up all the little pieces I didn't know what to do with.

P.S. a thank you to Unique not Freak for posting that patchwork ghost design and giving me the idea to do some patchworking of my own. If you don't follow Unique not Freak, please go do so now, I'm a huge fan of their art!

Feeling lucky? You are! If you're looking for more new art that is!

I'm really having fun playing with this new pouring technique!

04/08/2024

Time to introduce my newest set of paintings!

I have been muling this idea over for AGES trying to come up with the right way to do it, and it feels SO good to finally have it come to life on the canvas and not just in my head. These pieces combine a few different pouring techniques, and are unlike anything I've ever created before! I can not express how proud I am of myself for these pieces!

Both the original canvases as well as print versions will be available in 2 weeks (in time for the Collingswood Fine Arts and Crafts Fair). Pre-orders are welcome though! I can even make notebooks if you pre-order them (notebooks are $15 each or 2 for $25).

Seriously though, I am in love with these paintings, and this style of painting opens up a whole new world of possible future pieces as well!

P.S. I do not support J.K. I'm just a lover of fantasy, who is here for the community and fans who have reclaimed the magical world.

Name me! I would love help with a name for this line of new paintings! (Bonus points for alliteration, puns, or just a play on grim reaper).

I just couldn't wait any longer to share these new pieces! They might be the most upcycled paintings I've ever created, as they're made from both painting "scraps", and from actual dried flowers I've had laying around for ages waiting for the right project.

You're also welcome to pre-order your favorite now! Only $20 each, frame included. And I'll be making more as well. But for now, help me name them!

So far I'm thinking Grim Sower.
