The Afternoon Fled From Me!

Well, the afternoon got away from me...so this post is a little late in the day. I got caught up in finishing making up a round of (pretty awesome) new Sophie dolls, and then my new sewing machine came (!!!), and well, here I am at 8 pm.

Here, also, is a new painting I finished work on in the last few days:

All Horns and Thorns    11"x14"x2"    Acrylic on canvas

Her crown is, to me, like the lace band from this post of Amy's.

Have a happy night, and I'll see you tomorrow for the update (I'll try my very best to post photos here of the new Sophies before the update goes live).

xoxo

your trip to Portland must have really been inspiring, your latest paintings are simply majestic.

[Rebecca Green]

I do enjoy that the dress she is wearing looks like the one you wear in a photo from some girls wander. But it is green here! I love them both.

Your paintings just get more and more beautiful. I swear, I'll never be able to pick a favorite.

My daughter is a Sophie (Sophie Jemima), so I very strongly feel that you should give the male versions my son's name, which is Felix. :) Okay, okay, you don't have to use Felix, but they DO need a name.

Beautiful paintings!!! It'll be the first time I'm attempting to catch the store update as I'm 7hours ahead! As it all sells insanely fast, I was wondering how much do the paintings sell for so that I spend less time browsing and more time trying to buy ;)? Thanks!

[ramona west]
