Close up taken with Instagram on my iPhone. I LOVE Instagram!!!!My newest little mermaid is swimming around on an abstract mixed media background! This painting was done on a collaged 16" x 20" stretched canvas. I'm loving this combination of colours!
Notice how all but one of my mermaids so far have had red hair? They're redheads in honour of my own little redhead Elsa.
An acrylic 12" x 12" stretched canvas portrait of my sweet little bunny rabbit Elsa in one of my favorite outfits I've dressed her in so far. I painted her holding her favorite stuffed toy, a little grey monkey. Obviously this painting will stay with me forever :) The stars are done in metallic gold paint and look super neat when they catch the light!
Another painting made specifically for our home. This one is mixed media on a 16" x 20" stretched canvas. It reads "In this family we PLAY hard DREAM big SMILE often LOVE deeply". I'm going to be adding more inspirational wording to my work in the future.

Beautiful works!
