Art Spark Wednesday....On Thursday!

Sorry it's a day late folks. I attempted drawing and painting a face but that wasn't nearly as fun as breating the background. I used a tealight candle to create a resist effect on my gesso. Then went over it with acrylic paint, oil pastels and ink. I hope you enjoy watching.  

Here is the video:

I love the cool texture!

Thanks for stopping by to take a look.

Art Spark Wednesday!

I was inspired by a page in my art journal and recreated it here on a round canvas.

On Thursday! My art was sparked on a canvas today instead of my art journal. I managed to edit and upload my video to YouTube and then forgot to hit the publish button. Who does that? Me apparently. Anyways, here is the finished artwork and video. I hope you like it. I had fun creating it. Owls are a favorite of mine.

Here is the video:

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

My newest artwork and some exciting news!

Here is my latest painting. I used a wood panel and acrylic paint for this little lady. I think she turned out ADORABLE! I hope to make a series of these with different flowers. I really enjoyed creating this one. It's everything I love, cute, cute, cute and vibrant colors!!

This  was the original sketch where the idea was born :) 

Now on to my exciting news! I am the new artist at ByLoriDesigns

I've been MIA lately....

.......sorry about my absence. My family and I have been helping my Mother in law move for several weeks. She just sold her house and we have been going through the process of sorting out what she wants to keep, store and get rid of. We are almost finished thank God. I plan to get back to creating soon and posting on a more routine basis. Back soon. Love and hugs, Dawn
