Keep on keepin' on...

I have managed to keep up my pace lately getting several different ornaments painted. It is so time consuming painting up a new pattern I've created as I have no clue what colors I am going to use until I actually sit down to make one. I'm constantly changing them up. Once I get one finished it is alot easier to mass produce them. Teachers have forever been my best customers when I used to participate in craft shows so I have wanted to create an ornament for them. I also managed to take myself away from painting lightbulbs long enough to paint this simple santa on a clothespin. Was fun for a change. I will paint a santa on just about anything...look out! LOL

Been Playing...

Anytime I can find time to paint I call it playing as I love it so much. For the past month or so I've been painting on 3 new lightbulb ornament designs. I have forever wanted to make a Harley santa and then decided to just not make any one brand of motorcycle so he is a "generic" motorcycle ridin' santa. I have also wanted to paint a santa ornament with a long coat so I finally did that too. I always have to throw in a snowman ornament as there are alot of snowmen collectors out there. Funny how ornament ideas are always running through my head. I have so many I want to get painted up. I hope you enjoy these! I will get there one day although I doubt my ideas will ever stop from flowing...hope not anyway. I love designing as much as I do painting them.
