New video Series - Episode 1

My plan was to show you how I painted my Winter Angel hanging heart but the recording messed up so that will be a time lapse video, which I will put up next.

This first episode of my new video series shares what's been happening with me and plans for the future. I'm working on a snowman painting as I talk to you.

For future videos it would be great to answer your art questions and share with you what I can, so if you have a question or something you would like me to talk about next, please leave me a comment or send me a message.

Part 1 - Wool Painting + Modelling Paste Tut

Enjoy! Part 2 coming tomorrow Thursday.

Well the seeds are now planted, fingers crossed that they grow lol now it's time to get back to painting!

I've set up a new page with more details letting you know my prices and how the process generally works, there is commenting enabled so if I have forgotten anything you can let me know.

I have several spots open for commissions and would love to work with you so please come on over and check out the details for a custom piece.

La la la

So I'm still ill with this nasty cold virus that hubby kindly gave me ( thanks!) so I'm going to be late with this weeks video, but it will be up by tomorrow night yay!

The webcam came yay! so I've just got that set up and will do a intro on BlogTV and then decide a good day/time to start the shows. If you have no idea what I'm talking about...

I've set up a channel on BlogTv so that we can chat and you can see me paint and ask questions etc which I think will be fun. I'm needing your input for the best day/time to do this and what you want to watch/do, so please leave me a comment below and let me know.

Also, I'm starting an art giveaway on my Youtube channel every week starting tomorrow, so if you would like to win please subscribe today to be included.

Ok I'm off to get a cup of tea and try to warm up!
