No, actually nothing outside is frightful. I'm guessing the temperature is just fine. It's me, under the weather. I think I've caught some little cold and it's making me feel sleep-ly and immobile. I had to wake up though, because I was having this scary zombie dream in which my friends, namely the zombies were fighting the temptation to have their dinner, and well...I wasn't having any of that!

WORK

I'm working on uploading several old videos to YouTube from Jtv and other sites, and then I am up to painting some commissions work and some new 3 piece triptychs that I haven't done in years! It is something I must must do, and so today is dedicated to that. On another note, that auction for "LUSH TREES" last night was relisted. I had forgotten to list it's reserve and made sure to put the BUYITNOW price on it. I have tons of things to prepare for, art camps, art shows, and the upcoming Art Expo in Las Vegas this September!

KIDDIES

The Mothers Day tea party at D's class yesterday was so cute. He served me a chocolate chip cookie and punch, and then they showed us their "What A Wonderful World" project, how they have been raising butterflies, and then gave me this calendar he designed with his lil hands for me. They had worked on it year round and got sick of the hand paint. I thought that was funny. It was adorable. Little D by far is the most sweet, adorable kiddie in that class, but then I MAY be biased. ;) They will be having a teddy bear picnic soon and I'm going to be volunteering to attend.

MORE ART CAMPS

So, recently I was invited to attend an Art Camp in Tacoma as well, this summer.  I will keep you posted on the info for that. Still in the works with the Seattle one coming up.

Well, I'm off to grab some green drink and get my day started.

Here are some previews!

the NATASHA GOES POP! series as shown is finished and will be listed on my website. This series was sparked by an idea to show me doing things that I do in a fun way. The character is very reminiscent of my Maizy character that has evolved from my previous Whimsy and Want series characters.

And in the spirit of GHOST OF BONE'S PAST (no pun intended. hehe), I am continuing on the PUPPY POP series with these works, which I am finishing tonight.

As you can see, they are still in progress. :)


This untited piece features my sweet monkey characters. It's a commission for a baby's room. Isn't it kawaii(cute)!!??
I still have to work on solidifying the clouds in the background, and then I'm sending it off to the family. I wish I had time to do more of this work. It's from my Fairymisfits.com characters. Unfortunately, my website needs some fixing and I can't remember the login information! Go me, right? ugh... I'm going to call the host provider and try to get that fixed up so that I can update the website and do more things with the characters. It's either that, or I'm going to have to start a new website. Stay tuned on that info..

I'm working on several new pieces that will be featured in the Mad Hatter Cupcakes store! You will see my characters from the ALICE IN WONDERLAND series there very soon. I had to revisit the pieces, and make some new ones. They are much cuter and colorful than the past works I have done. I will give you updates on how that goes, and let you in on where you can buy the original paintings from the series!
