Happy New Year!

HAPPY  NEW YEAR! I want to wish everyone a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. I hope that in 2012 the economy will improve. Stay safe. I will be back to painting after New Years.

Campus Movie Fest

Hi:

The star in this movie is my grandson Jeff. He plays Noah. I think he did a good job as a young soldier going off to Viet Nam. This movie is a finalist in the Campus Movie Fest and it is representing Jeff's school, UCLA. Please vote for it by viewing it. Thank you so much!

First Accent Tile

I am posting this just from my camera. I don't take straight photos so the edges are crooked...sorry. You get a preview of what I am doing. There will be five different silohuettes in the center.

I still can't post answers to comments

I am sorry that I haven't been able to post comments on my own blog...Really crazy! I appreciate my followers and hope to get this corrected. I would like to post some accent tile designs that I am doing for a company. Give me a couple of days.

Thanks!
Elinor

Testing

I can't seem to get into my own account to post replies. I am trying to see if I can still post. Please bear with me.

Mini Kaleidoscope Orchid Tree

Here is the latest miniature. It is 2.25" x 3.25". I have a standard size version but this is very different since my paintings are all free hand. I used both transparent and opaque watercolors and a bit of Prismacolor pencil. I am half way done with the miniature Surf Shop and the surfboards in this one have different designs. I don't think that I will be able to enter the Cider Painters show this year because I am so behind. I don't have enough paintings. The "Kaleido-doodle-do" painting is impatiently waiting for me to get back to it.

My Studio

Thought that I would show you a picture of my studio. I am wishing that it looked like this right now. I had to put aside the "Kaleido-doodle-do" painting to work on miniatures for the miniature shows. I have my miniatures in two shows and I am getting more ready for three more shows. They are all back east so they need to be shipped. I have roosters and mats spread all over my studio but I am NOT posting that. Have a great holiday weekend.
