Happy February!♥

Hello!  I hope your February is off to a great start!?  I had a post saved and ready for the end of last month, but it vanished when the server updated the security system.  I can’t remember all the details.  However, I do remembering mentioning that Vintage Lynchburg is cancelled for 2017 (the owner is taking a break).  I loved this event (as I am sure sooooo many of you did too) and will miss it this year, but praying it returns for 2018!!♥. In the meantime, I have other painting projects in the works.  Plus, I am glad for the time to work on the next book in the Happy Heart™ series; without the added pressure of such a huge biannual event.

Also, I shared a little about the process of making of these sweet hearts!  They were fun to make (layers and layers of color)……and I am glad they have found new homes to encourage and inspire other hearts!!

I’m in the process of making these cute little rustic/primitive style hearts (a few more happy vibes to add before they are ready) for the shop.  They will be available next week at Happy Heart Made Studio.I always love a challenge and was commissioned to paint a portrait.  So I jumped at the chance to use my oil paints on a fun “doggy” portrait.  I’ll share the finished piece in my next studio update (just a sneak peek… I still need to let the owner see it first!!).I’ve been trying to be more intentional with making the most of the “time” I have to create each day.  So if I have a few minutes in the morning, I get a few boards cut before heading to the museum.Then, I start painting them at night.I’m working on a few Virginia pieces that will be heading to Lou’s Antiques in Amherst sometime this month.  These need a few more touches before framing.  Plus, I have three more to do before sending them on their way. 🙂Thanks for your support!!  If you see something you like in the SHOP, please remember to use code HAPPY17 at checkout and received FREE shipping (on orders $15 and up) until February 14th.  Blessings to you all!!
