Happy Birthday Mum!!


Well here is your English Robin Mum!! Happy birthday!
I have to get prints made of him before you can actually have him though! The three little birds I have posted today will all be on sale on my etsy shop ( see top right ) as soon as I get prints made of them, hopefully in the next two weeks. I will make an announcement when they arrive. This painting is almost 6x6 inches square.

Fairy wren



He's a tough little guy, making his name kind of ironic!! he is perched on barbed wire.

Chakra!

I did these three paintings to put up at Ananda Yoga Studio. There are Seven chakra all together. I got this description of what chakra are from, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chakra

Chakra are commonly described, as energy centers in the body located at major branchings of the human nervous system, beginning at the base of the spinal column and moving upward to the top of the skull. Chakras are considered to be a point or nexus of metaphysical and/or biophysical energy of the human body.


These three are 2X2 feet square. I like how they turned out, and painting them was very soothing (the colors where fun to blend). I am planning on doing the other four chakra. I will probably keep on doing different versions of these three as well in different sizes. I hope you like them!!

sahasara **(crown chakra)**


universal identity
thought
self-knowledge

vishudda **( throat chakra)**


creativity
self-expression

manipura ** ( solar plexus chakra ) **

non-dominating power
Self-definition

1962 VW Bug




Isn't this little bug so cute! I did him in acrylic on wood. I think that along with pet portraits I will be adding classic car portraits. Who knew that I would be good at painting cars!?
