Wow... it's been 8 months since my last post... and my little girl is now 8 months old.. is that a coincidence... I think not! LOL. Our little Isabella was born on the 19th of November.. so exactly 9 days after my last post.
Although life has been very full and busy with a new baby, I have been diligently working on the birthstone series that I started so many months ago. I am currently working on June's birthstone... I got a little bit behind on them when we went on a vacation to my home province of Nova Scotia to show our little Isabella off to the family. We were gone for 3 weeks and it's been a very busy (and very fun) summer. We recently just got back from a trip to Jasper. It was a beautiful few days in the Rockies, though we didn't camp this year, it was hard enough hotel-ing it. There is so much to pack when you have a baby!
I've been working on another project which many of you who are fans of my art on facebook will have already seen.. I became obsessed with Fairy Doors a few months ago.. and when the idea started keeping me up at night I knew it was time to just try and make some. I've really enjoyed how they have turned out.. and I will definitely be making some more.. and playing with the designs a little too. My original fairy door idea still hasn't come to fruition.. but good things take time ;P
Going back to the artwork.. June's birthstone is well on its way, and I will be finished (fingers crossed) in a few days. It's very girly.. I guess roses and pearls just scream girly.. and the fact that I've chosen a rosy pink for the mermaid just adds to it (the girlishness). I'm really liking this one, and can't wait to share it with you all.
Please go to my website if you would like to see the latest paintings in the series. There are just too many to put in one post!
My Fairy Doors are available in my Etsy store "Entrance 2 Enchantment".
