Equality Treasury....features my Lady Liberty

Just spotted a treasury by Anna ...the Shop Owner over at annaCsophia ...she creates pretty things like earrings....pop by her shop to see some of her work....

She curated this Equality Treasury and was sweet enough to feature my Lady Liberty Print....This was created as a watercolour...and the colours just make me smile....

I have ACEO versions of this and also a large print of this piece in my Etsy Shop...

What a great memory of my Trip to NYC this past December!!!

Happy Creating...

p.s. pop by and show us some love!!!

Illustration Friday - "phenomenon"

I have always been impressed with the Statue of Liberty....Imagine that it was a gift from France and traveled so far....and it welcomes so many people to America....She is a symbol of something that is extraordinary....and I think many people feel the same way.....

This week over at IF the theme is "phenomenon" and I created this special watercolor and ink as inspired by my time in New york last weekend......



Wishing you all a wonderful weekend...may it be filled with Family, Friends and inspiration......

Lady Liberty comes to life...and my art creations friday piece....

Hi Everyone....I just finished the latest doll ....you remember the sketch from yesterday...well this is Lady Liberty completed....

I have to say that these painting a day projects are making me so happy as an artist ....I feel like I am in my own little world when I create these and it is so much fun to sketch the idea first and then create the art doll...I hope you love her!!!

In this shot of her...I used one of Cole's paintings as a back drop!! his art is so inspiring isn't it...

I also haven't had a chance to participate in Art Creations Friday for a while now...but this week I thought I would...so I had to use the photo on their site and this is what I altered it into...

Happy Friday Everyone!!!!

Hugs

Theme Thursday - Pink and Black ...and my latest doll design...coming soon!!!

HI Everyone....here is my latest design for a mermaid pendant...for little girls who love to be different.....and the rough sketch below......She is the first mermaid that is all pink and black...very rare in the seas off of the Coastline of Croatia.....It is said that she is pink like a flamingo due to her strict diet of sea shrimps......

I also wanted to share my latest sketch for a new wooden peg doll that will be coming out this week...so be sure to pop by so you can see her come to life......I love New York and this lady reminds me of freedom....so I thought she would make a perfect art doll .....

Have a wonderful day!!! night!!!

Crazy Amigos - 2inch x 4 inch challenge....

Hi Everyone....

I created a quick piece for this week's challenge...It represents freedom....freedom to fly where you want....freedom to believe in all of your dreams....and freedom to love and enjoy life....

The Statue of Liberty was a special gift from France and I am still amazed that they brought her over via boat...wow...and they say good things only come in small packages....

Have a wonderful Tuesday....I keep thinking it's Monday since we had a long weekend here!

Hugs,

Illustration Friday - "Fail" I failed to get this on the February cover of the New Yorker

Hi Everyone....

Today's theme was a tough one...at first I was going to do something fun like a little kid with a failing grade...but then I thought about the cover idea I submitted too late to the New Yorker....

The true meaning of fail was me not getting it there in time....

Hope you enjoy it!

Happy Friday Everyone...

Cheers,

Diana

The soldiers are giving Lady Liberty Valentine's in their longing for freedom....
