prints in february

I've added a few new prints to my shop!

-forest bear-

-forest fox-

The originals will most definitely be for sale as soon as I can find the perfect oval frames for them. I'm thinking a simple black or a fancy antique gold style would be a nice fit. These two paintings feel a little bit like sophisticated portraits even though they still have a cuteness to them and I cannot wait to do some more!
After painting this rabbit... I'm so addicted to anything in ovals or images enclosed in unique shapes and patterns...

like this amazing lion brooch by juliepollen that makes me sigh because I need it!

love dove fox, your vote, & valentine-esque things!

yay! my little heart-framed fox was chosen as part of an etsy poll called "which lovey dovey item makes you say "Awwww?". You can check out the info here! There are so many really adorable things to look at and choose from and I'm really honored to be a part of it. Anyone who would like to vote for me, please go here! And a million thank you's to those of you who vote for me!

speaking of love-dove type things, valentine's day is almost here and I had to document a few overly pink treats I've been indulging in this week...

pink grapefruit with sugar and a pink frosted donut that my boyfriend brought home for me! I have only one heart shaped vintage frame left and I can't seem to narrow down what animal I want to paint for it. My list includes:

-a hedgehog

-a panda

-a cat

-something else...

Which animal should I choose?

something in the forest

Just listed in my shop...

one fox in a special vintage heart-shaped frame, one brown bear with a sad little face (his face was accidentally painted looking glum, but somehow I really love it!), and one special raccoon with a face that I swear looks like:
Sir Didymus from one of my most favorite movies of all time...The Labyrinth!! There is something about him riding the real life dog in the movie that really kills me. <3Does anyone else see the resemblance maybe?

I think tonight I must watch the movie after making a fantastic wintery soup!
