Sunday Sketches....Come with me.....to Paris......

Hi Everyone....I want you to meet Madeleine....she was one of the most popular ladies in Paris...the men would all watch her as she walked around heading to some of the most sought after events.....

Everyone knew she had something special .....but no one could put their finger on it.....some je ne sais quoi.....

She believed in herself and believed in dreams....the only difference between her and most of the girls in the city....was she believed dreams were for living and enjoying in an awakened state....she also lived her dreams out loud....something very few do.....

She knew that if she believed in something truly with all her heart....it would come to pass....and it always did....I think we all need to learn from her and start dreaming with our eyes open....you need to try it sometimes....it is so much fun.....

Wishing you all a super amazing day filled with Dreams that come true.....and beauty.....

Happy Sunday Everyone....and Happy Creating!!!

Mixed Media Monday - "Inspirational Words"

Hi Everyone....This week's theme on MMM...is Inspirational Words....and I wanted to create something as inspired by one of my favorite words..."Dream".....

All my life I grew up believing that anything is possible if you truly believe...and my parents always taught me this....it was this phrase that made me Dream all the time as a child....I wanted to be so many things but mostly in my heart of hearts I wanted to create and be an artist....I always felt that art would be a way to leave a foot print in the world...that even when I am gone people and children will know that I was here....and that dream grew in my heart each and every day till I was lucky enough to finally take the leap of faith and follow my heart....

I think we all need to take chances in life ....always ones we are comfortable with...but let me tell you the day you take that leap of faith on something you always dreamed of......may be the day you get to live your DREAMS!!!

Hugs

My latest series...and my submission to Mixed Media Monday

Hi Everyone...

I am merging my love of watercolour and ink with my love for paper cutting to bring you my whole new series of work...Each piece is an interchangeable piece of art ....all you have to do is change the background to get a whole new look....I suggest you always use an acid free backing in any colour your heart desires....Have fun changing it to fit your décor needs or the changing seasons…

This photo is taken against a window to show all the cut out details....

This first piece was created for my wonderful friend Michelle....It is titled "Dreaming"

Here is the piece framed ....

I will have 3 new pieces that will be available in my Etsy Shop on Monday October 27th ...

Hope you pop by and see the new pieces...

I am also submitting this on Mixed Media Monday...the theme this week is "Lock and Key" for me the the key is my knife and scissors and the locks are the cutouts.....Opened by the key...my knife and scissors....

Hope you enjoy it....

Hugs
