Merry Christmas! Day 1

I have made it back to the land of the bloggers. Plain and simple, "life" has bulldozed through and I have not had the opportunity to sit at my desk and create art for art's sake.

I do have a few things to show you that have blossomed within the last few months, so in honour of the season and the 12 days of Christmas, I will post you Twelve Days of Art
Above is a hand painted porcelain Christmas ornament of "Indy"

A very Merry Yule to everyone and their families, human and four-legged and all the best for a stellar 2012!!!!:-)

One More Christmas Post

"Marne"
Christmas 2010, Enamel paints on porcelain

I wanted to show something different I did this year;
This is an original hand painted ornament I created for an extra-special Christmas gift :-D
It is a flat, porcelain ornament and I used enamel paints, with some gold burnishing on the background. It was a pretty good surface to paint on and I was very pleased with the outcome.

For inspiration on this piece, I tip my hat in the direction of Jennifer MacNeill-Traylor, who has painted a few of her own ornaments. I found the porcelain blanks one day and decided to give it a try.
Surf on by and check out her artwork on her regular blog and her fabulous Painted Ponies (one of my New Years resolutions is to save up my pennies for one of Jen's original ponies this year!) You won't be disappointed!

Everyone is back and school and/or work tomorrow and I will be trying to finish up my entries for this year's Art Show at the Dog Show. Will try to post work in progress....stay tuned!
