A Festive Gift Unveiling!

This Christmas has been packed full of artful gifts to and from close friends and family! I haven't been able to post them on my site until now, because they've been kept a close secret until all gifts were unwrapped!

I hope your holidays are filled with warmth, love, and beer–I mean cheer! 🥳🥰

Now let's dive into the gift I have for you: a showcase of some of my latest works!

Firstly, we have a gift given to a friend and her partner for their home! They have a very cottage-core pixie vibe with a living room filled with greenery, mushrooms, and soft classical art in fall colors. They specifically wanted more mushrooms and neutral orange tones, so the creation below came into existence! – Shown are "sexy mushrooms" on Pantone cards with the couple's month and year date as the ID code. There are also 15 mushrooms to represent the day as well. This was then printed as an 18x24 poster for their living room.

This next design was for my mom. I created an eternal bouquet for her including the birth flowers of all of our immediate family. We have the May birth flower, Hawthorne (hers) in the very center. There's my brother's at the base, the Daisies, and my dad's pop of color with the Marigolds. Finally, my birth flower, the Narcissus, scattered throughout to tie it all off. – This design was turned into an 18x24 poster to hang in her home forever. : )

The next painting was long overdue, but just in time for the holidays! A friend and I actually worked together to turn an old forgotten painting into a heartfelt work of art to decorate his new home! This 16x20 canvas is called "Bared to You". We have a metallic pour paint design for the base including silver, gold, and hints and blue and pink peeking through. I then added a brick-like shadowy overlay to create a more masculine feel, topped off with a skeletal figure tearing and ripping his skin off to reveal a shining gold from within.

And last but certainly not least, we have a pet poster designed for the person I dog-sit for. At Fern Gully, darling Sprite and Nellie Bly have been a joy to include in my routine, so I had to transfer that love and joy into picture format. Realism is not my forte, so I decided on a cheery color block design to brighten any space with! – This was then printed into an 18x24 poster.

With the holidays now over and the new year right around the corner, I have some BIG ideas planned and in the works!! Any guesses on the newest addition to my collection come January? 👀
