Paint Party Friday....playing around with Paris and my Ladies....





 Hi Everyone....thank you for visiting me and my blog.....I am taking you all on a little retro journey to Paris with some of my vintage inspired ladies....they are all special in their own way and have lots to do in in this wonderful city....

They love to dress up and wear their make up and some of them even wear gloves to be extra special....They are looking for love and what better city to find it in........the city of love and lights and delish macarons.....and even if they don't find love right away.....they can visit a local florist or a bakery and enjoy other loves!!! As many of you know....I am inspired by Paris a lot and I even have a whole section of Paris inspired art in my main Shop.....

Wishing you all a super wonderful Friday filled with dreams and big plans for the weekend....

Happy Friday Everyone....and Happy Creating!!!

Hi Everyone....and Happy Friday...

I really have no idea where the week has gone much less the last month.....Time is just flying by and I am enjoying every minute of it....It is super hard to believe that we are in August already and Summer is in full swing....I just hope this month doesn't fly by too quickly.....

I am having some super fun "me" time once and a while and I love to paint vintage ladies and place them in fun scenes....Today for PPF I am sharing my latest lady in her lovely setting....I titled this piece....
" A parasol in Paris"

I hope you enjoy it!!! and enjoy this long weekend.....
