Montenegro Scene from Melanie and Lilli's travels

Working on pieces for my upcoming show at the Yellow Springs Brewery!  I will put up work in late December and have a reception on Dec 27...I think.  I'd actually love to do it on Dec 31!  What a great way to ring in the new year.  will work on that - more later

Holiday cards on the road...

As we traveled the long trail back from family gathering for Thanksgiving, I created new designs for the upcoming Christmas season. I frequently bring WAY too much stuff to create with... so, this time, I was more selective. I simply brought my watercolors, card stock and pens. It's  quite fun to do simple sketches and embellishments. This is a small selection of my'roadwork' cards...
 

I'll be bringing the completed cards down to the shop - Village Artisans - in Yellow Springs so come pick your favorite!

Christmas cards, crafting and cooking

cards, pins, pjs etc...so many beauties to create. This year, I've had several orders for cards and custom paintings.... I'm happy to be included in multiple shows and am investigating hanging my work in Downtown Dayton. very nice...

Merry Christmas to all!

Handmade delights at EcoMental

I made lots of little ornaments for the tree - painted and spangled with beads, fabric birds to cheer up your space (that I sold at the Glen Helen show) and beaded pins for your winter coat or dress, that are now for sale at EcoMental on Main St. here in Yellow Springs. Come on down to see them - not too pricey. CJ and Nancy have graciously set up a space for local crafts people to share their wares - Theresa has her beads there too : )
