HOWDY GATOR

I recently visited Brazos Bend state park again.   The park inhabits about 400 mean looking alligators, so with that in mind I thought I would draw a happy one instead.

PRICKLY PEAR CACTUS

Here's my latest watercolor painting inspired by the many prickly pear cacti in Texas.

SUN CATCHER

Amelia and I created a colorful Valentine's Day craft yesterday with pink craft paper, contact paper & a variety of tissue paper.  It was a fun, simple project that didn't require glue that could potentially get all over the little one!

 

VALENTINE'S WREATH

Last weekend David took Amelia to a place called Jumping World for a couple of hours which meant I had a few moments for some shopping and craft time!  Oh Joy!  I love a little bit of time for myself. 

I ended up not using this pretty striped ribbon, but I'll be sure to use it for something!  Even if it's to wrap a gift with.

TINDERBOX: HOUSTON

I'm happy to announce that I found a super cool shop called Tinderbox in Midtown that will be selling my Texas prints and original watercolors!  This shop is so special because the majority of the art sold is of Texas artists.  The work ranges from handmade bags, purses, jewelry, prints, cards,  screen printed shirts, etc. They also do weekly workshops and invited me to teach a watercolor class in March.  Dates to be announced!

LOVELY BEAR

I've been wanting to update some of the art in Amelia's bedroom, so I painted a bear today that would also work well next to the woven piece I bought in New Mexico last summer.
