Fantail Facing You
She's the apple of our eye and I love to paint her. I did this little ACEO (3.5" x 2.5") original watercolor a few weeks ago, but it took forever for me to get around to scanning then listing it for sale on etsy. But, she's there now. It was a quick sketch while watching her swim, then finished it...
Pull me apart, put me together
A sketch I did a while back has been tickling my dreams, floating in and out of my mind at the oddest times... I finally up and painted it this weekend while the little ones napped and hubby worked on college courses. This is yet another one that was kind of born from thinking about this existential...
Love you forever, part 2
I am now finished with this painting: "I don't know you yet, but I will love you forever", watercolor with ink and pastel, 140 lb archival paper 16" x 16 3/4". Gathering up my paintings and working out the logistics of displays for the show in August. I think the black foam core will look nice. I...
I don't know who you are yet, but we will love forever
I've been purposefully meandering on a spiritual path for several years now. I know there are things that I have left behind maybe for a while, maybe permanently, pieces of religion that confused and debilitated my life. I've come across so many illuminations which have reconfirmed what continues to...
studies, practice runs and throwing color around
After moving past illness, I am spreading my wings a little more this week. I've had lots and lots of ideas that sort of keep me awake at night. I remember when Gameboys first hit the scene and I was a teenager (you can guess my age now)... I played that darn Tetris game till I was seeing shapes in...
Teamwork
My friend, Shane, moved to Florida. He's back for two weeks and spent last night at my house. He penned out a girl and I watercoloured it. He coloured a version using paint.net for the first time. Original: His Version: My Version: I told him to add some "background squiggles" before I coloured it....
Gustave Moreau: The Apparition
John the Baptist is the last of the Old Testament prophets, according to the New Testament, and paves the way for the Messiah. "He must increase, but I must decrease." John, 3:30. John baptizes Christ and recognizing the Messiah tells him he needs baptizing from Him. Christ then preaches in Galilee...
In progress
Here are some snaps of things in progress. Coming along, but still need some endings.... I'll post some finished work soon. Have a great day!
A glimpse
There are moments when one peers into the face of the future and it is so good and so fine and it completely makes clarity of what must be done right now. The past is a trickster and we have to reckon with it, tinkering around with it to pull out the good and relinquish that which hinders. This is...
Light source
There are so many things that can go wrong in a fraction of a second. And when happiness tilts, is hope there? Sometimes it is our children, the ones we guard and cherish, who created an amazing, inverse reality: our little ones become our hope and our light. Who lights your way? This painting is...
Already another treasury!
I've been featured in another treasury! I'm so excited. The thing is that the painting already sold. But, it's nice to get the exposure. Check it out! http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=4930 http://victoriasart.etsy.com I've just listed a couple of new ACEO (Art Card Editions and...

We have always been
We have, you know. And here we are now, all of us, in this space of time looking at each other through words on a screen, or in person when we hug, or passing others through the windows of our cars which are only illusory windows. Because we have always been and still are a part of each other... and...
Losing yourself to find yourself
"Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time." Thomas Merton When was the last time you completely lost yourself while studying a piece of art whether in its natural form or its expressed form? There is something quite therapeutic about losing yourself in art, allowing it to...
This most assuredly counts
I finally got down to painting my notebook cooler fan. I wanted everything - a decorated notebook cooler, connected mouse, transferred files - up and ready before I got down to using Ricebowl, my HP Pavilion tx2120us, and now everything's done! This was the initial design: And here is the completed...

Just suppose
The title of this post is a slant rhyme for a place I was published just today: Juxtapoz Art and Culture Magazine, online. I'm doing sloppy pirouettes and feeling giddy because this is a huge honor. If you haven't seen this magazine, check it out. There are astoundingly talented artists published in...
One Watercolor Morning
TV serves you almost everything on a platter, so there's really not much room for creativity and imagination. I had to do laundry this morning and I didn't want Pablo to watch TV the entire time, so I set him up with his new watercolor set and papers. He loved it!
