New Work - pink, carnivals and balloons

Image
Pink Ink Heart Print available on etsy Pink around my studio   Carnival Comes to Town Print   Carnival Balloons Print   My Pink painting for my lounge Pink ink studies Lots of Pink and red Sweet William prints!   Pink ink and paint study I am having a pink ink moment! I have been working away in my studio with all sorts of shades of pink. A while a go I finished a pink painting, which is now in my lounge room and the pink continued - maybe it is Spring or maybe it is because I have three girls or maybe I just love the colour! I am busy on a few new images, here are three that have been listed as prints in etsy - Pink Ink Heart , The Carnival Comes to Town and Carnival Balloons . Pink is a very happy colour, isn't it?

My Home in the October Country Style magazine!

I had Contry Style Magazine come and do a shoot at my home in May... a few months later and the issue finally hits the shelves. Yay! I am very pleased with the way it all turned out. Sharyn Cairns took some wonderful photographs and captured our home beautifully, while Virginia Imhoff wrote a lovely piece about all the bits and pieces in our home and how much we have traveled etc. The ' where there's tea there's hope ' print got a big feature in the shoot and on the editors letter, which we are so pleased about and the orders have already coming rolling in. Ooooh I must say it is quite a thrill to see my own home and work in print, I am most flattered!

Spring Cleaning

Image
I am not the most organised person in the world and I have to admit, I quite like a bit of chaos. My home is lived in - there isn't a place for everything and everything isn't in it's place...But lately I find my self longing for a bit of simplicity, a bit of, dare I say it... organisation... I think the start of spring has bought on the urge to purge! I have started sorting out my studio, making big piles of things to chuck out, recycle, donate and it feels so good! Here are some pretty images of organised spaces that have been inspiring me. All links to these images can be found in my Pinterest boards . Happy Monday to you all, Paula x
