Love song

This is my entry for Summer of color. Can you tell how much I'm enjoying this?! It's been a while since I picked up a paint brush and I just feel reborn :)

The Summer of Color

I'm real happy to be able to take part in  The Summer of Color over at Kristin's blog, because I missed it last year.. and it has been so much fun participating in the past!! so this year, I cleared my calendar and will devote time for this fun event!! yay!

 So for this first week, our only requirement was to work with two colors, yellow and aqua and a splash of pink. the two main  colors can be mixed to make a third, so lime comes into the picture.
For more amazing art, pop over to Twinkle. Twinkle blog!

Have a great weekend!! 

I'm glad we're friends

 

This cute little card made the semi final list of 68 entries, over at the  Tigerprint blog. yay!! I was really thrilled about this even though it wasn't a winner because it was picked out of 440 entries and that's good enough for me, right now. I made the doll out of felt and embroidered the heart and dress Tigerprint is a greeting card supplier for the Marks and Spencer dpt store in Great Britain and they have monthly contests. You should check it out and see all the great talented artists :)

I also started some new paintings and ''Lucky 13'' is my latest fave! I love all the bright colors in this one, it makes me happy when I look at it.

Mustache quilt

Here's a little something I created a couple of weeks ago for another spoonflower contest.

 I'm thinking of making a tote out of this funny pattern.

cooking up a storm

I entered this design for the Spoonflower contest last week. Head over for a visit to see more fab entries! The theme was utensils and I couldn't complete my design without my little mushroom people!

And then I made a quilt!  I have so much in mind for future designs with these squares!

Hope you're enjoying Spring time weather :)

digital quilts

      

   It's been several months now,  since I started working in digital form and I haven't been so excited and happy in my work as I am these days :) I really feel so alive and can't wait to get up in the morning and start creating!  I have been painting on canvas as well but it's this digital form that has me in a dizzy spell :)  and the pattern making! oh wow! to turn one of my designs in a pattern...just mind boggling!!

Well, a few weeks ago as I was finishing up one of my illustrations..I was trying to think of a way to organise and use all these icons, that take me for ever to create and I came up with this quilt idea. 
     

Well, actually I wanted to use the icons again in a new design that would be fast and no nonsense kind of way, so I came up with the quilt idea!  I would make a series of quilts after I'm done with the major design, illustration or pattern and take all the icons and organise them in small boxes, that would make up a new design...the quilt.  Also it would give me the opportunity to simplify my designs. Simple design was the key word :)

Hope you like them as much as I do!!

Spring time

  

Now that Spring is finally here all I can think about is blooming flowers and cute little birds chirping away.
  

 

 

My obsession with pattern making is taking over and I'm so loving this whole process even though it's frustrating at times! but I'm determined to overcome the technical part and focus on design. So many new things to learn and not enough hours in the day.
