I haven’t posted much in the past couple of months (or done much artwork) because I have been in the process of buying a new house.  I found a house at the end of May and I’m all moved in now.  I’m just in the process of furnishing and decorating it – the fun part!  Hopefully I’ll be able to get back into blogging and creating artwork sometime soon.

In addition to being preoccupied with a new art card series, I have also recently completed a couple small canvases featuring my favourite subject:  TREES!  

My March Pika Package, from Pikaland, has arrived!  This time I received the following:

• we all live peacefully at the edge of the water  - reproduction from gretchenmist (Melbourne, Australia)  -  Amy (from Pikaland) was kind enough to ask this round which artist I would like to have in my package, so I said I would love any print from Belinda Kemp of gretchenmist.  I’m really pleased with the one Amy picked out for me!
• Where I am - postcard from Lertsis (Bangkok, Thailand)
• White Penguins – set of four gocco printed note cards from paperkate (Brisbane, Australia)
• Boo To You - reproduction from Stephanie Fizer (West Virginia, USA)

Here are my latest art cards I’ve been working on.  These have been so much fun to make.  I have a feeling that series is not quite finished yet. I’m going to be slowly releasing them for sale in my Etsy shop.

He’s the newest member of the family.  I can’t wait to meet him.  Isn’t he the cutest puppy ever?

Yesterday I had planned to dedicate the day to a work-related project that is due soon.

 What did I do instead?

Today I must do my real work.
