I decided to create a fresh new blog... for right now it's mostly baby brain stuff but if you want to follow, please go see my new blog at http://kc-shaw.blogspot.com

Creative Dryspell
I've been attempting to get a decent arrangement of paintings for my Etsy shop, so my plan has been to focus on one peice, duplcate it 5-10 times, and then move on. Right now I'm stuck on my 20 x 20 daisy collection.
So far I've created red/white, white/orange, and grey/yellow. I've just started on two more, beige/white, and minty green/cream. I really want to make more, I have a ton of color combos in mind, but man... I am just not feelng it lately! I'm kind of bored with it actually (BOO!!) I love the way a screenprint-ish painting looks but I'm growing bored with the whole, stay-in-the-lines-make-it-perfect type of painting.
I really want to let loose and play around with a canvas very soon. I spotted a pretty cool book that I believe would be a lot of fun to mess around with. There are SO many ideas in here. It's called Acrylic Revolution!

Shameless Plug :)
So... has anyone on here seen my Etsy page lately? I'm super happy with it! Granted I haven't made as many sales as I want yet BUT my shop finally has more than like 3 items in it so I'm starting to look kinda legit :)
I paint all of this by hand so it takes me a while to get each piece made -- my favorites are the silhouettes. In particular, the daisy. I love them! I have a new white and orange one I'm almost done with. I love the outcome but they are a bitch to paint lol!! I curse them out the entire process but as soon as it's done I'm in love with it!
Anyway, I also created a Facebook page... I know I know... shameless :) But if you would be so kind as to "Like" it, I would be super happy!!
