on the easel this week.

speaking of...i thought i'd be kind enough to include Coldplay's A Sky Full Of Stars video below....just because i'm nice like that. ;)

and while i'm on the subject of my beloved Chris Martin, my FAVORITE Coldplay song turned 14 yesterday (gosh, i really feel old right now....). best. song. ever.

{i know, i'm a little obsessed. but....it inspires paintings....like the i'm currently working on. :)}

{a peek at my next painting entitled "moonlight mavens". it will also double as my new homepage image on my website. always trying to re-invent myself....}

{and it kind of was inspired by favorite Coldplay song. kind of...;)}
