These are marble pendents, gesso pendent made on form core and bottle cap charms .

These are made from matchboxes .I call them my butterfly houses . You can see the inside holds tiny butterflies.

These are 4x4 canvas that I made shadow boxes using the back . I really enjoyed doing these . Thanks for stopping by.

More new art

This painting like too . I call it "Girl with heart balloons " . She has alot of gesso relief on it. Which I really like the look of .

"Love"

This is 7 little canvas's that I glued on to a heavy piece of card stock then altered, painted and played with till I like it . Then I glued the whole thing to a piece of wood which I painted before hand

"Believe in yourself"

Again used 7mini canvas but this time I used the wood background as part of the

over all design.

New paintings

This one I really love . Its my "I finally got it "one . You know when you have been working to learn a new Tu but you don't seem to be getting it . I feel I am finally getting it with this painting . Its my lastest . It is called Princess Splendor.

This one is called "Dreams are wishes". I did this one for my "World of Whimsy" class so I was just really working on the backgrounds.

"He loves me ..... " This one was all about the dress LOLOL this one is also beeswaxs ,very lightly

"Alice" My Alice in wonderland painting

Butterfly box

This was a AOL chip wood box. I had joined a swap and when I found this among my stash I knew what I was going to do with it . The outside design is done using gesso and a foam stamp . then i painted over it to give it some color

This is the inside . the butterfly a tiger swallowtail is a real butterfly. and the other side is a cool sticker saying I got out of something ????? LOLOLOL then i hinged them together just using small pieces of ribbon . The girl who got it really loved it .
