ComMission Completed




This commission piece was only one of the many things that were keeping me a busy bee. Besides everyday life, I've been working on more goodies I will be sharing soon. This painting is actually the largest piece I have ever done. Including the wooden frame I added to the canvas, it measures 25" X 37" X 2.5" deep. I really enjoyed working on a bigger scale. Now that I've tried it, I'm hooked.




I also got the chance to use this lovely decorative easel
my sister-in-law gave me for my birthday. Thanks again Tra! I love it!




This was created using oil pastels, acrylic, metallic & 3D paints.




Textured and sanded for a distressed appearance.




Her halo & wings shimmer with acrylic paints and a dust of glitter.




Touchable texture all around.




Who can stop themselves from feeling the textures
of a finished painting?




Not me. :)




Until next time... Thanks again for your continued support in my art!

  1. This is so beautiful. I love the large scale and all the textures. I am so glad you are going to do more large pieces like this. Your work looks great any size, but this size will grace an entire room! Wonderful! I LOVE your work.

  6. Beauuuutiful! I would pet those wings all day long. Do you have a separate website with info on prices etc? I'm wondering what you charge for commissions and if you do different kinds, if you sketch / draw as well? Oh and I'm always bugging you about prints and now I'm off to see if you have any :D
