Getting my groove back…

Our home is a 50 foot houseboat on the Shuswap. I look forward to the lazy days of summer. When all the estate matters for my mother have been dealt with. When I can find inspiration and create.
In the meantime…it snowed on the hills overnight and our furnace isn’t working. It is cold and blustery. The houseboat rocking. Getting my fingers to work could be a problem. It will be a stay indoors, try to stay warm, kind of day. Time for art. Get my groove back. A good thing.

So far the little mouse settling down for a long winter’s nap and the happy snowman are my favorite. I will be making more to sell at a local store, Rikki Lou Who’s Gift Emporium. It’s situated downtown Salmon Arm on Alexander St. It’s a Christmas card assembly line and my imagination gets to work overtime. I love it!

They seem to be what I enjoy creating the most these days. Perhaps it’s the lack of venues to sell my bigger paintings? Or perhaps it’s because small is easier for me? Or perhaps it’s all I feel like doing at the moment. Regardless I hope you enjoy my mini pieces of original art.

Yesterday I decided to make some time and create something. The results are the two, “one of a kind” cards shown here. I always seem to have fun creating my cards. If nothing else they are whimsical. They are also mini pieces of original art that you can keep and frame or send to someone for a special occasion.

These two “one of a kind” cards were dropped off at Rikki Lou Who’s Gift Emporium on Thursday. It’s a lovely shop on Alexander Street downtown Salmon Arm. The owner of the shop likes to carry unique gifts and she supports several local artists. I am grateful for the opportunity. Now if only I could find a venue for some of my bigger paintings.

Cards seem to be the only art that I am interested in creating these days. I am not sure if I should be worried about that or not. But at least I am doing something creative. I suppose there has been a lot on my plate lately. I am positive that I will have the urge to splash paint on a bigger scale soon. In the meantime please enjoy these little treasures. Cheers Susan

Keeping things simple. Other than puttindg a coat of gesso on a 24″ x 24″ canvas I haven’t spent any time at my easel. Not since coming home from Mexico. I haven’t felt like it. I thought that I had lots of inspiration and was ready to get busy but as soon as I stand at my easel all is lost. Perhaps I have a bit of a block happening? On the other hand I am able to create these cards. A veritable plethora of them. I am having fun with them, they make me smile. That is sufficient, for now.

Theodore the Easter dog appeared on one of my card creations the otherday. I meant to post Theodore on all my social media sites but somehow missed my website. I hope he makes you smile. Another tortuga made an appearance and a frog enjoying the shelter provided by a magnolia. Can you tell I am still having fun creating my “one of a kind” greeting cards?
