Happy Tuesday!

Hello there dreamers.
Sorry I've not updated sooner but I've had a poorly little boy. He's on the mend now though :)
I've also not had much time to paint or make. Tis hard sometimes being a stay at home mum as well as working from home. But it's worth it!
 I have made something new....
 They are little balsa wood hearts which I have hand painted and added a ribbon to. They are birthday party favours. Great idea if you want something more unusual. I love them, I think they look really cute. I will definitely be making some for my daughters birthday, although that isn't till September! I'm working on some other ideas like this for boys, so keep a look out.

I have a new commission to start soon, which I'm excited about. It will be the largest thing ordered from me so far! A 20x39" canvas wall art. Gives me a reason to use my big easel! ha ha. I post pictures of the progress as and when I start it. It's going to be fun. And with the weather getting better I may be able to get some painting done in the garden, which is always nice.



I'll leave it at that for now, my kiddies need me :)

And the winner is....

Emma Genockey!!


Well dome Emma, I will get your prize to you on Monday :)

Thank you to everyone who entered, although there wasn't many. Hopefully we'll have more next time! I don't know when we'll have another competition as we need more people to enter for it to be worth it really, so get spreading the word.

Well this weekend I have got buntings to finish, trying to glue crystals is hard work with a 2 year old trying to climb on me! Ha ha. I also have a double door plaque to start, which should be fun. This one is going to be an under water theme. Other than that I'll be having a semi chilled weekend with the kids. 
 
At the moment I still have a waiting list of orders, but I am working my way through it. You can still place an order now to get you on the list, you will not have to pay any money until I have at least started you piece. If you want to place an order you can go on the facebook page or use the contact me button. :)

 See you soon dreamers

Competition time!!

Hello lovelies.
Well after searching all day I finally found my camera wire! Woo!!
Anyway I was having a break from painting pink triangles and came up with an idea.
I'd love to know what you think of it.
I think I need a different spoon though as the one I have used makes it a little lop-sided.
So if any of you like what you see you can enter a competition to win it!!

Simply answer this question.

What would you be drinking if you ordered a ?Lapsang Su Shung??

To enter the competition e-mail me using the 'Contact me' button at the bottom. The competition starts now and will end Friday 11th March at 8pm. Any e-mails recieved after that will not be entered. The winner will be announced on Saturday. Every person who gets the correct answer will have their names put into a random name picking software which will pick the winner. This is to ensure the process if fair :)


Speak to you soon!!

Open for business!!!

Hi there everyone!
I have decided to open up a blog so I can write my nonsense down. Also so I can offer you lovely people offers, competitions, giveaways and much more!
Due to me being obviously new at this just bare with me while I get the hang of it :D 

A little about me for those who don't know. I have my little family which consists of me (Sarah), my partner (Mark), my 2 year old daughter (Willow) and my 4 months old son (Rowan). They give me inspiration every day, although with  2 little ones I don't always get the time to express it. 
I have a million ideas waiting to burst out of my head! At the minute I have limited space for my artwork and supplies. I'm hoping in the future when I can expand my business etc I'll be able to get myself more space to work in. 

Here are a few examples of my work:





That's quite a random selection of work I have done so far. I do much more and you can see more photos on my facebook page [link]. You can also follow me on twitter [link].

I'll be having a competition soon, so keep your eyes peeled!!

Bye bye for now my lovelies, the kids need me :)
