New Etsy Designs

Happy New Year! I haven't written on here in forever. Have a slew of new designs.

Wedding suites!

These were the new holiday card designs for this past Christmas! Time to start working on new ones for 2016 :)

New Christmas Card!

 

A fun new Christmas card in two colors has arrived in my etsy shop!

I'm working on a few more that will be out in the next week or two.

Check it out!

Spring 'Save the Date'

I've gotten tons of requests the last few weeks to make a 'spring' version of my save the date cards. 

Ta da! Check them out over at my etsy shop.

Valentines!

I've always loved making valentines and am taking a shot at making some for other people this year! One of a few custom portrait designs I'm working on for my etsy shop currently. 

'Gifts of Power' exhibition at Chartwell

I was recently approached by the Events Officer of Chartwell House, under the care of the National Trust, to do a series of paintings for their upcoming winter exhibit 'Gifts of Power'. As Chartwell was Winston Churchill's family home, I was of course more than delighted. The paintings feature Rufus I and II (Churchill's miniature poodle I featured in my book 'War Dogs') as well as Jock the cat, who 'still' resides at Chartwell.

You can see these paintings as well as other features (and perhaps even Jock the Cat) at the 'Gifts of Power' exhibit at the Chartwell Estate this winter. This project was a major thrill! I'll hopefully be able to post photos of the exhibit itself sometime soon.

Many thanks to Emily Christmas for approaching me with this project and to Zoe Roberts for taking over.

Pet portraits

It has been pet portrait mania over the last month or so over at my etsy shop, since my custom pet portraits were featured on the etsy.com blog as a great Mother's Day gift. These are a wonderful project to work on during my after work down time. 

Some of my favorites! The shop link if anyone is interested, here

Etsy

I recently starting using the etsy account I made so long ago (oops). 

There are a lot of little projects I usually makes for friends (or my boyfriend) that are very pleasurable to make but have no place in my portfolio. Etsy is their new home! I have such a wonderful time making these.
