so, i'm a little excited for these. ok, maybe a little *too* excited. but those who know me know i LOVE me a good mirror...especially when it's pocket sized and has a pretty picture (or in this case, a painting) on it! :)

ordered a few of these and will be posting them FOR SALE as soon as they arrive!

{so, the pink haired mermaid....kinda love her. such a girl...;)}

this beauty from last year...SOLD!!!

this little email came through my inbox this afternoon and i was so humbled that i couldn't help but tear up. this week, i SOLD TWO ORIGINAL paintings...not commissions. seriously, humbled is an understatement.

was really stunned when this SOLD earlier in the week....as i had NO intention of bidding this princess adieu. knowing she was going somewhere where she would be much loved, well that makes selling her even more bitter sweet.

{PRINTS SOLD HERE}

all in all, it's been a wonderful first week of April....and i am beyond grateful!

that amazingly bittersweet feeling you get....

SOLD!!!

when you sell an ORIGINAL painting....and, it's one you weren't even intending on parting with. (sniff, sniff)

{looks like the fairest of them all will be going to a much loved new home....and i am completely humbled, as always.}

PRINTS of her royal highness can be found HERE!

a method to my madness...

i always love seeing how other artists come up with their masterpieces...from the moment of conception to the finished product. 

so, i thought i'd share my 3 step process...from the tiny, super tight little thumbnail to the full size sketch (same size as the canvas) to the completed painting.

{such royal treatment for a princess...;)}

step 1
super tight little thumbnail

step 2
