My NEW Art Video

Today, I am proud to present my 2017 "Light. Love & Life" collection, featuring some of my most recent art. I am so happy to share it with you, my friends. As many of you know I am a self taught artist and just started learning to draw around 2012. Since then, I have seen my abilities grow as well as my passion. There is nothing like painting on a warm, Summer, afternoon while listening to some old tv show like "George and Gracie!"

Art details- Most of the art was done with acrylic paint on 16x20 canvas. A few were done in my sketch book. I even did one with colored pencils. It was fun using different mediums and sizes.

So, take a look and feel free to leave a comment.

    Kelly, that was so much fun to watch. I love all of your work. My favorites are the pink dress girl with butterflies and that gorgeous Love, Peace & Joy that you finally finished. I am amazed that you have done this all on your own being self-taught. Wonderful, delightful work! You are an artist!!

    Wow that was awesome! I can't believe how far you have come with your drawing! I remember when you started and here you are showing the world what you can do. All of your drawings are so beautiful and meaningful. I can't possibly pick a favorite! I look forward to seeing what you are going to do next!

Our Romantic Anniversary Dinner

Happy Thursday! I hope your week has been great.  Today I wanted  to share some of our wedding anniversary pictures with you.  Last Sunday, my hubby arranged for us to have a romantic dinner at the very place where we had our wedding reception.  I was so excited when I found out that they set up a table for us to have the whole banquet room to ourselves.  How great was that??? The restaurant is right on the bay and has the most spectacular  views.  So when we arrived they had a table set up for us right by the windows so we could get an even better view.  They had the rest of the room set up for an event but I still could remember how it looked the night of our wedding with the lights and the dance floor.  Plus the left side of the room is nothing but windows so you can see more of this secluded bay. So as we dined we watched the sunset and it was so fabulous.  Even at night all the lights from the surroundin...

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!

Cupcakes Anyone?

Happy Fall! Last Summer I took a cupcake decorating class at Michael's and I loved it. It was really great to learn the basics. This was all new to me and I was excited to try it out.  All Summer I wanted to make more but the weather got too hot to bake so I had to wait. Finally we had a break with some cooler temps and I was able to get back to these yummy treats.   I made two of my favorite colors: happy sunny yellow and hot pink. Oh, and they tasted good too.        Have you tried cupcake or cake decorating before? Isn't it like art? Maybe that is why I love it. Now I can't wait to make some more. Thanks for stopping by!
