Bluebird in hat

Almost forgot to post my Bluebird, all my Birds in Hats will be note cards and small prints.

New Colored pencil designs and embossed cards


 These birds have been a fun series, that I'm not finished yet..I am usually so in to realism, guess old age brings back the fun of painting. I can now paint what I want, instead wondering if this will sell at the shows. Takes a load off and brings the fun part back...  

Two new card designs that I have painted and printed and then embossed. A whole new look to my art.

New note-card designs embossed

When it snows in East Tennessee one tends to get bored, of course I'm always looking for ideas and ways to improve my art and my line of note-cards. For this spring I will have embossed cards with enhancements on them plus my art work. Four examples here. These will sell as individual cards, not in a package as I usually sell my cards.
