The Postcard Project:
Anemones + Ranunculus

This week's postcard was inspired by some egg-doodling I did for Easter:

I meant to keep it simple.

I tried so hard to keep it simple.

I love the busy end result though.
If only I'd painted wooden eggs instead of real ones.
Next year.

The Postcard Project:
Stargazer Lilies

Oops! I got a little behind on my weekly Postcard Project. I don't even remember what was taking up so much of my time. When I finally got back on track after a two-week hiatus, I had fresh lilies in the house.

The Postcard Project:
A Soothing Bunch

I hope you all had a lovely Valentine's Day weekend, even if all you did was lay around in sweats with your kids, like I did. :) 

However, I managed to get up and paint a little postcard for you. This week, I was inspired by a lovely bunch of blooms I found at Trader Joe's. 

I flip and I flop on which I like best: bouquets that are all one type of bloom, which are visually pleasing to look at, or assortments of flowers that offer a variety of color and texture (they're so much fun to play with!).

The Postcard Project:
Tulips and Peonies

After all the hectic scrambling last week, I decided to start on a larger piece for my own personal pleasure. Of course, I gravitated to flowers again. They're so relaxing for me to paint -- I get in the zone and before I know it, a peony has emerged.

The Postcard Project: Roses

This week has been crazy busy -- between commissions, logo designs, and custom state and country orders, I've been painting up a storm! All that said to justify the fact that I only painted one postcard this week. But, it's a lovely one!

The Postcard Project


This year, I started The Postcard Project. Every week, I am committing to making two or three watercolor paintings on 4x6" postcards. This is my way of making original art accessible at every price range.
