VIDEO- Yves Saint Laurent Exhibit 2024

Last Sunday, my husband and I went to the Orange County Museum of Art to see the "Yves Saint Laurent: Line and Expression" show. It was excellent and I am so glad we were able to go.

Here is a video I made sharing our experience. Check it out.

Yves Saint Laurent was a famous French fashion designer known for his YSL and Saint Laurent brands. After reading his Wikipedia page, he was quite a trailblazer in couture and ready to wear designs.

As we walked the museum, we saw Saint Laurent's beautiful sketches and fashions. Before we got there, I was excited to see the gowns but the sketches surprisingly captured my attention. Seeing his hand drawings really personalized this global icon into a regular artist with extraordinary ideas.

As a growing artist, his work inspired me to dream bigger and practice my sketching. Also, it was interesting to see his creative evolution from dark to vivid colors and styles.

I hope you watch this video and feel inspired to be more excellent in your life work, too. Enjoy!

Bravo, Mr. Yves Saint Laurent! Bravo, Orange County Museum of Art!

Vintage Love is Here

I love making greeting cards for Valentine's Day. When my husband and I were dating, he started a tradition of giving each other cards for special occasions. I hadn't been a big card person then but after he started giving me so many great cards, I loved it. I loved giving as much as receiving them. Valentine's Day was one of the best times to get a wonderful card from him. So you can say, he is one of the reasons I got into card making. I loved that feeling of receiving a card from someone I loved and loved me. So with that in mind, we are happy to introduce our "Vintage Love" Collection . I enjoyed creating a daytime and night time versions of these cards. I love the variety that came from my limited supplies. If you need a special card for your loved ones, they will be available in our Etsy store ( www.kellyron.etsy.com ) for $5.00 each plus shipping and handling . Also, if you would like us to type your expressions on the inside of the card or a organ...

Live Forward

Happy October to all! I am getting ready for the holidays already and hope to have some Christmas cards to share soon. While I am in card mode and am still enjoying creating faces and painting. Here is one of the last ones I did called, "Live Forward." Just a reminded to keeping looking ahead in life. Driving like life is supposed to be done by looking through the windshield not the rear view window. (Oh, that is a good one. LOL!) Also, I loved using strips of patterned paper in the background. Then painted over them with layers of colors and then added stamps and that face. Isn't she pretty? I am so proud I am learning to draw profiles. They have been hard to do but I am starting to get it. Take a look! Thanks for looking and hope you have a terrific day!

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...
