Highlights from My 1st Art Show Video

So many of you have stopped by and seen my art show video. If you haven't click here.  Kelly's Art Show

Glad you all liked it. One person said she felt so relaxed watching it she is going to use it as a stress buster! LOL!

I wanted to highlight a few of my favorites from the video. First, the drawing of my mother-in-law turned out so great. This was from her wedding picture and she looked so beautiful. I can't wait to make a copy and take it to her.

The original
Another picture from the video I really loved was my rainbow girl. I was inspired my another artist who did a girl with rainbow colored hair. After seeing that I just had to try it. Here are some detail about her.



I loved using book pages as apart of the background. Also, since the book was inspirational if adds strength to her.

I liked using some old rub-on words like dreams, friend, true. Also it was fun sprinkling white paint around.

I used a stencil to create the butterflies. The soft pastel colors were just perfect for Spring. Also, I just love how her hair and facial expressions turned out. She looks so content and peaceful.

Well, I hope you enjoyed learning a little more about this pictures.  I am drawing more and hope to have more to share with you all soon. Have a nice weekend!

    Gorgeous work ... I love the transparency you achieved in the veil that your mother in law wore, and your rainbow girl is wonderful as well. Great job.

My Birthday Blog Party

Welcome to my Birthday Blog Party! I am starting my celebration early to fully enjoy my day. My actual birthday is May 29th but why not start early right? :) When I think of birthdays past, they were always such exciting times for me. Many of my birthdays were celebrated with fun parties from my childhood to my young adult years. I loved all of those special parties and to this day, I still love it. Maybe this is where my love for event planning all started. At my 3rd birthday, my parents gave me a big one. I don't really remember but the pictures are so cool. I had lots of kids there, a clown, a little merry-go-round ride and lots of games. I had a white little outfit on and was looking so cute for a Spring party. Boy, I looked so happy! Also, I was brave not to be afraid of the clown, too. My mom was holding me as I blew the candles out. Another year, I had my first slumber party. That was so fun! I invited several friends and ...

Happy Hearts

Today I will be sharing one a several painting I recently finished. This one is one of my favorites. I wanted to try two faces and just love how they turned out. It was fun going crazy with the multi-colored background. The hearts were made using my new favorite thing to make from toilet paper rolls- STAMPS.  I saw them on Julie Balzer's blog. Toilet Paper Tube Stamps  Then I used my fingers to paint the inside of the hearts. So neat! Take a look and I hope you feel the love and joy in this piece. Aren't the afro's fabulous!!! LOL! They were my first try and look pretty darn good. The little girls afro puff is so cute and reminds me of the ones I had as a child.   I love the hearts on their clothes. I used my stencil to make the design then painted around just to show the insides. Hope you enjoyed and come back this week to see some other paintings. Have a good one!
