For Those Heart Warming Cold Moments

 Sure we want the snow to go away, but in case it doesn't (just in case) I have discovered wonderful knit scarves that are 100% warmth and 100% sooo cool. Check out Jill Lauren Handmade Knits on Etsy: http://www.etsy.com/shop/jilllauren?ref=af_you_favitem.

Awesome Wall Murals

 Today was a great day, considering I finished my latest wall mural.  Candace wanted a crown for her oh so cute little Prince, and here is the result:

Bronze is always a great color when used a base since it can be accented with almost every color.  The crest in the middle I custom designed with Candace's son's initials- so neat for when he grows into his big boy bed.  I made the crest reminiscent of the Porsche symbol, what little boy wouldn't want that? Ok, so the reference was for Daddy, but still.

Paris Posters, the beginning

 I am currently in the throes of finishing a line of Paris Poster collages, a homage to my love of Paris and everything French.  Here is a peek of an old Absinthe poster I re-commissioned to a bachelor's pad.  The dark brown hues on the outer edge make you feel like you are looking through an old pinhole camera into a 1920s brasserie.  The stamps and hazy photos around the outside are old French and Italian emphemera.

Hey Lina- this reminds me of your painting too..... oh the love of plaster!
