What a fun challenge....This week on the Arty Girlz Challenge Blog you take inspiration from something in your Home and create something new....I just finished watercoloring my 2 special Mona Lisas....
I created these inspired by the wonderful hand stitched art my Grandmother gave me at my Bridal Shower over 9 years ago...It hangs in our home and inspires me daily....
Here is my take on the theme...you know I had to add some cupcakes to the mix...lol
One of the original mini paintings is available framed in my etsy shop. This would be great on a desk...
I also added a digital version I created last week...
Hope you enjoy them and the inspiration photo....
Have a wonderful day and pop by often!Hugs
Diana

Oh Diana, this is brilliant! I so enjoyed seeing your interpretation of the original needlepoint and it is particularly special that you used something so lovingly made.
Ha! That looks so cute framed!

The watercolor is my favorite!

Your Monas are so fun and wonderful! You know, I always crave sweets when I leave your blog...LOL! You have the best looking cup cakes on the planet!!
Diana,
I realy like your addition to Mona. (yum!)
She has been an inspiration to me ever since I saw her in the Louve another lifetime ago.
Joy aka Zebee, or is it the other way around?
Hi Diana!
What a lovely keep-sake. I can see why it's inspired you. Your versions are so pretty!
mona lisa never looked better....maybe that was the reason for the subtle smile...she was wantin' a cupcake !!!
Very sweet Diana, she looks so chocolatey (that should be a word!) in the digital version. :-)
Diana! You always manage to put great-looking food into your pics! Great work again!
fantastic and just lovin the cupcake.
