Flutter

Happy Monday to all! And thank you so much for the Fimo birdie love :)
Congratulations to Allyson Haskell for winning the giveaway at my Facebook page!

Three little fimo birds

All done! I painted them with acrylic & a coat of matte varnish.
It's Daniel's now because he asked me for it...how could I say no to Daniel :)
He wants to put it on the window above his desk in the new house.

Clay Birdies WIP

I cooked these little polymer clay birds this morning to be made into a mobile after I've painted them with acrylics. I'll show you the end result tomorrow.
The biggest one is 3 1/2 inches long from beak to tail.

Yellow Bird

Trying out something a bit different today.
Mixed media & digital collage. 9 x 12 inches.

New Rocks

I was immediately inspired to make some new hand painted stones
after I read my friend Margie's beautiful guest post at Indie Fixx.
The round stone is 6 inches in diameter, the biggest one I've painted yet!
These will all be companions to my succulent and cactus collection,
Manolo made a really nice place for them in the new house.
Hand painted with white acrylic ink & a very fine (No.1 or 2) round brush.
***The little white pebble vase is from my favorite ceramist:
Paula Valentim of Otchipotchi.

The Orchids

They are thriving. This is the third time they bloomed since we moved here.
But the stems are getting a bit shorter each time. Who knows why.
