Fun painting tutorial for Halloween for all skill levels!
Painting Pink Roses and Purple Songbirds
Pink. Purple. Soft. Sweet. Perfect colors for a baby girl’s room. Or in this case, a wall hanging for a baby girl’s room. I was a little girl. Once. A very long time ago. And I don’t remember having a pink room. In fact, for my 8th birthday I was surprised with a bedroom makeover […]
A Scarecrow Painting
Before I painted this I had a brilliant idea. It seemed like a brilliant idea at the time. Like most of my ideas. They start out ‘brilliant’ . . . in theory. But the actual application of the idea? Not always so bright. I was pretty certain about this idea, though, because it involves multi-functions. […]
Baby Girls Personalized Canvas–Color Options
How’re you doing today? I hope you’re safe and sound, particularly if you’re on the eastern seaboard. My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.

‘Faux’ Painted Niche in Bathroom
This is the last stop on my “Art Gallery” tour. I think. I just may have forgotten a project or two. Which I attribute to being incredibly busy, or the numerous projects I’ve painted in this house. It’s definitely not due to my age. Just so you know. Before I show you how easy it […]
“Art Gallery” Tour – The Wine Room
I’m thinking I could write a book called “101 Ways To Paint Leaves & Vines on Your Walls”. So far in this house alone I’ve painted leaves and vines – in the foyer in the master bedroom in the master bathroom in the master vanity in the dining room in the kitchen and, if you […]
