Amelia

My friend Amelia turned seven on June 23rd, 2013.  I vividly remember my seventh birthday and receiving a beautiful doll named Amy along with a collection of ‘doll clothes’ that once belonged to me (and my sister), probably about 6 months size, laundered and pressed (by my amazing Mom) in a sweet and sturdy basket with a pink baby blanket.  I so cherished this gift and played and played with Amy and adored putting her in the little smocked dresses!  My friend Amelia wears sweet frocks, has long golden hair and sparkly brown eyes. I admire how curious, capable, and strong Amelia is… she loves to try new things and approaches what ever it is with grace, style, and a joyful spirit!

Feast for Love

Our dear friend Heather Love was in a terrible accident this spring.  A group of friends are having a fund raiser to money for her rehabilitation and on going needs.  I created the artwork for this poster~ The original is about 12″x18″ and is a paper collage.

PUMPKIN PULL

This past Monday Ollie and I went to Sweet Berry Farm’s Pumpkin Patch. We had a great time and the weather was beautiful. At the end of our adventures we picked out some pumpkins. Ollie was heaving them around and had fun testing his super hero strength on the heavier ones~ which brought to mind this little painting I did some years back!

TURKEY HEARTS & WHIPPED CREAM

HAPPY FALL!
Over the past while I have been collaborating on a children’s book with my husband’s aunt Honey Minshew. It is a delightful true story about a young girl and her curious cat who adventures out one Halloween night and gets into a bit of trouble. The story ends happily on Thanksgiving Day. It is a fun book to enjoy during the autumn months and I think that children will appreciate the cheerful illustrations and simple writing. I have designed the book on Blurb.com. One can preview the book there and also purchase it directly. As you well know, self publishing isn’t always the least expensive route to go, but for now this seems like a nice solution. You can click on the link to the left and it will take you directly to my blurb website. If you have troubles with this process, please let me know … as it is all new to me!

Jesse Griffiths with DAI DUE





Today I went to Food & Wine magazines web site to cast my vote for Jesse Griffiths of DAI DUE as one of the United States top chefs… he has been a pioneer in promoting the local food movement in Austin. He is amazing in the kitchen and a true craftsman with what he does. It has been a pleasure working with Jesse and his wife Tamara in creating packaging for their products. I just finished the latest label… HARVESTED by HUNTING which he will put on products such as Venison Sausage and Wild Boar Chorizo, etc.

Heart Creations

Valentines Day is just around the corner! It is a blustery day, Ollie has a cold and is home from school so we got out my boxes of ephemera, scissors, and glue to make some Valentines. So I decided to share with you some of my favorite heart creations I have done over time.

I have always liked this paper doll, a self portrait of sorts… winter whites and red shoes.
I used some carbon paper for a textile design as a backdrop.

A wool heart pin cushion filled with a bit of Santa Maria Novella Pot Pourri
photographed against some beautiful chard.
I posted this photo on FaceBook recently and quickly got a note and a picture
from my friend JD (who I gave this pin cushion to)… she now lives in Marfa, TX and
sent me back a great picture of it against a grand Agave! Lovely exchange.

I like this little drawing…
love and be loved and love and be loved and love and be loved!
