When I opened my eyes this morning, I told myself ” there will be something good in your inbox today.” Spoonflower has selected my design to featured on one of their “shop lists”. Each list features 100 designs. You can see the  “Latest Favorites” list. (It may be for today only.)

I designed this over a year ago, for Spoonflower’s theme contest, “Bells”. It is still one of my personal favorites. (Larger Image here.)  Click on Quick view, and you will be able to scroll over the art, and zoom in.

Art Party Day 10

Hmm, I think I am still working on this. Now that I have it scanned in, It needs something more. A star? Some bows or lights? I may just crop it in an oval shape.  I also did this little wreath, I liked it so much, I have it taped to the top of my monitor. Happy Holidays!

Happy Holiday! Happy Holiday!
While the merry bells keep ringing,
May your every wish come true.

Not many people know that the poinsettia is actually a shrub, or small tree. We are so used to seeing them in a small foil covered pot. I once lived in an apartment that had one planted in the front. We actually decorated it for Christmas. It was about 8 feet tall, and even though the branches were sparse it was really pretty.

I really enjoyed painting this, and it came together fairly quickly. I am working on my tendency to overwork. This is for Day 6 of Sea Dean’s Art Party.

Thanks for visiting!

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
How lovely are your branches!

How often you give us delight
In brightly shining Christmas light!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
You are the tree most loved!

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
Your beauty green will teach me
That hope and love will ever be
The way to joy and peace for me.

On screen this looks exactly like the ornament I did yesterday. The colors are really much deeper. I hope you can take some time to visit Sea Dean’s Art Party and see the gorgeous art that is being born!
