My Sister !

I just learned that my little sister all the way from Argentina, recently started a New Blog to promote her adorable Papier-mache creations. Please check it out!

Happy 2011 !!

I love the winters in Texas, the sky is at it's bluest. Usually we get a new camera, camcorder, for Christmas and love using it outdoors. Check these out, from downtown New Braunfels.

2011 will be a most FABULOUS year, I'm planning on it : )

I Won!!

I've been following Le Ptit Lu, a French illustrator that I admire. Gothic and mysterious. Recently, and thanks to my Spanish, I've learned that a giveaway was being offered. I commented, and lo and behold, on the latest post a "postcard" was created to list the winners, and I was just ThRilLed that my name was there, check it out!

Teen Portrait

Hello there! Sharing my daughter's self portrait, digitally colored.
My daughter has been interested in drawing off and on since she could hold a crayon. Lately she picked it up again, and it makes me very happy, mostly because it's good for her. In my humble opinion she is very good a representing expressions and movement in her art, most of her friends do not appreciate these because they are distracted by what may be considered messy, she simply gets a bit in a hurry and does not dwell on perfectionism, I wish I could do this myself.

Left Handed Art

Hi there!
Last weekend my daughter and I were goofing around and decided to draw with our left hand (we're both right handed). Afterwards I noticed that this one face turned out pretty good. I like the gentle look in her eyes. I want to continue to practice using my left hand.

Thanks for visiting : )

Self-Portrait

My dear followers,
Here is a pic of from my art journal, i used a pic of me as inspiration, so i decided it was a self-portrait, however, my ever-honest DD, stated it really does not look like me. But i'm happy with the results, so i'm sharing:

Mini-Portrait

Dear bloggers,
I've been drawing and painting on every surface that doesn't move.
Here is a mini-portrait on a magnet from my fridge, coated with coarse medium.

My Style!

I'm so happy! I feel that I have finally found my style. It's not precise, it's gentle and relaxed.
During my "quest for my style" I had to learn to relax, because I'm a perfectionist, even though I love art that's more natural.

So I'm very happy to share with you this little painting that I completed today: Acrylics on distressed wood.

Dear Followers :D

My dear friends, please forgive me for not posting in such long time, however I have been visiting your beautiful blogs. Lately I've only seem to be able to concentrate on one thing at a time. First jewelry, then painting, and recently I had to turn my attention back to my home life and my health, meaning I've been trying to get fit again.

I will be posting pictures of my recent paintings soon, but for now I wanted to share a beautiful show that I just had the pleasure to watch in person today. Perfect since Spain just won the World Cup today !!!! Yay, Viva Espana!!


So here it is, a beautiful Flamenco video clip, I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did:

Note: my video has been a challenge to post, so i'm still trying today, 4 days later...
