After many years, I’m dusting off some old skill

After many years, I’m dusting off some old skills and diving back into sculpting! 🎨
It’s been a while, but I’ve been wanting to explore this creative side again. I invited my amazing studio assistant, Kayla for a fun play/learning session. She creates amazing pet sculptures so I knew she’d be able to help me revisit!! 👐
We started small with butterflies, dragonflies, and of course, a little piggy 🐷 and these may or may not end up covered in gold leaf and mounted on my ceiling. 🤭– but now I’m ready to take on something bigger! Any guesses what it’s going to be?

Meet ‘Gracie’, named after my sweet niece and Goddaughter. 💕 This little 20x20 cutie is part of a special series where each painting is named after the amazing females in my family. Painted in oils, with my favorite ‘Moon’ motif shining through. 🌙 Thrilled to share that Gracie found her forever home during this weekend’s @parkwestgallery telecast! ✨

🌸 2024 so far 🌸 Looking back at the paintin

🌸 2024 so far 🌸
Looking back at the paintings I’ve created this year, I feel proud but also inspired. 🎨✨
It’s easy to forget about the paintings you did 6 months ago when you’ve done 100 or more since 😜
There’s still so much I want to bring to life! I’m dreaming of more delicate pearls & intricate encrusted details, and also diving into moody, spooky vibes. 🖤
The hardest part of being creative? Having endless ideas and never enough time to paint them all! 💭 What would you love to see more of in my work? Pearls, pigs or spooky moods? 💫

🌸 Meet my newest patriotic piglet ‘Glory’ 🐷🎨
This little piglet is all dressed up and ready to make your day with that adorable bowtie! 🎀 Full of charm and spirit, it’s sure to bring a smile to your face. 😊✨
As much as I love painting these sweet piggies, I’m also rooting for piglet freedom and advocating for better conditions in factory farms. They deserve so much better then what they endure.🌸🐖🌸

🌸 The fun is always in the little details! 🎨

🌸 The fun is always in the little details! 🎨
No matter how much I work on a piece, it never quite feels “finished” because there’s always something more I can add – a tiny touch here, a bit of color there. 🖌️✨ That’s the beauty of the process! 💕
