Christmas Time

Christmas time here at the Sweet house was a lot busier than I anticipated!  I fell a little behind in my painting.  Well, I will remember to schedule accordingly for next year!  Some of the dates have changed for letter completion, I had to do some shuffling around a bit, but, nothing has moved by more than a week or two either way.  I will try to stick more closely to this schedule, and maybe even make up some time this week!

Thanks for your understanding!  All dates are subject to change!

Mitchell Letters Finally Here!

So!  These Mitchell letters were painted for a couple in the USA.  They were pregnant with their first baby, and designing his room with colors from his bedding!  Well, the little guys decided to make an early Christmas appearance, and was born on December 19th, instead of early January!  What a great Christmas present!  I am sending these GIGANTIC letters to them on Monday morning, so they will be that PERFECT final touch to the little guy's bedroom

Okay and here are the pics I used to match:

So the letters are meant to hang above the crib between the 2 windows!  FUN!

Trinket Box

Here is a little trinket box I painted for a Christmas gift:

Although you can't tell from the photo, three of the circles are glittery!

Next post will be Mitchell letters, now 90% completed!!!!

Merry Christmas!

A little sidetracked...

Okay,

I know I said I would post pics of the progress of Mitchell's letters, but, I changed my mind...I am about 80% done them though....so hopefully the end of the week, or beginning of next will bring completion to that project.

I have ventured off a little on a side project.  It's a flower shaped wooden box.  I painted it as a gift, and slightly personalized it.  I will post pictures of it later in the week.  I know, I know, I WILL post it though.  I am more keen to post picture of completed work, rather than partially completed projects, because they look terrible when they are partially completed, even to me.  Even when I can visualize what they will look like, sometimes that vision changes, or evolves into something else, something better, in the midst of painting....

Anyway, rant completed.....

9" Mitchell Letters

So, the next order I am working on (if anyone is following along), are 9" MITCHELL letters.  This is the first time I have done a FULL name in 9" letters.  There isn't room on my table for all 8 letters at once, so I have split the job into 2.  4 and 4.  The first 4 letters I am working on are I, C, E, & L.  These are all patterned letters.  There are going to match a crib bedding, in a baby's room.  The colors I am working with are red, denim blue, light blue, chocolate brown, and white.  It is amazing to me how many color combinations look SO great together, and this is no exception!  I will try to take some pics of the progress as I go on this one, so watch out for those.
Until then, back to work!
