Tulips+Sun=Spring!

We lucked out today with a beautiful, clear, sunny day! So, we headed up to Mt.Vernon, Wa. to see the tulip fields. Our early spring weather here in the Pacific Northwest can usually be a little dreary with overcast skies and rain but c'mon, enough is enough! On the other hand when we have blue skies and sun, Spring is a beautiful season here. If you ever visit Wa. in April, make sure to visit the tulip fields!




Tulip Fields - Mt.Vernon, Wa  2011



Love this old schoolhouse from 1888.
 It now houses art from local artists.

A sweet little nursery in Mt. Vernon........

with a really cute little antique shop:) FUN!!!!

Sneak Peek!

This is a little sneak peek of KC the adorable little elephant. In real life Dylan and Casey are my two fantastic children. Brother and sister & someday soon, great friends.(Crossing my fingers, lol) BTW, my daughter chose to be the elephant, so I had to make her extra cute!
At the circus Lil' Dil and KC are best friends. KC will be up for auction this Sunday, April 2nd. They look so cute together and there are more circus friends on the way!

The Most Spectacular Show on Earth.......

I just finished reading "Water for Elephants" by Sara Gruen. LOVED IT! I definitely recommend it. I knew of this book a few years back but had never read it. I'm so glad that I did. I recently saw the trailer for the upcoming Water for Elephants movie and knew this was something that I would be interested in. Vintage and whimsy galore. I have always loved the vintage, faded and whimsical look of old carnivals and circuses. So this is the inspiration behind some of my upcoming pieces. Old and tattered circus animals and maybe some other circus characters.Stay tuned and keep a look out for some new pieces by me on ebay.

The 10th of every month...

is now a exciting day, because that is the day I get to offer my art on Pfatt Marketplace! I'm so excited to be a part of this highly talented group of artists. The piece I have been working on for March is called "Springtime Friends" and I am really excited about it. I need a little "spring" in my life right now! Hope you enjoy.
