Shadow box

I got myself a shadow box from Mr. Tom vintage shop to
organize my miniature figurines. It's kind of empty now
so I'm planning to make lots of new clay lovelies for JooJoo Land!
.

I wish you all a lovely Monday and a great start for the week!

Sketchbook

I got myself a lovely sketchbook, it's perfect a doodling, making collage and
creativity. You can see it bigger by clicking on the image.

Happy Friday and weekend!

IF - Early

Rooster the early bird wakes up early when everyone else is sleeping.
He gets really bored and guess what! ... He wakes everyone up!

I did this painting with watercolor and pen on paper.
The paper that I use is Fabriano (Hot pressed and extra white)
It's a perfect paper if you want to make Giclée prints, because it's
very smooth and scanner-friendly :)
.
You can find the print of this painting in my shop.

Love is all we need

I finally finished painting this!

It wasn't easy to scan it, because it's much bigger than my
scanner's screen. So I scanned it in 3 steps and then merged
all the three pieces together in Photoshop.

It has a lot of details that can't be seen in the photos, but here you
can see more details.



I've printed the painting on 13x19" and 8.5x11" papers and both
are available in my shop now.

I hope you're having a great weekend! Here Monday is a public
holiday (Victoria Day). So we are enjoying a long weekend :)
See you soon dear friends!

Blue evening

I took a few photos by Lake Ontario this Sunday.

The sun was almost setting and everywhere was blue.

I like to look at far away places and dream away...
It was very quite in there and all you could hear was
the sound of calm water.

What's new

Yestreday I managed to take some photos of some of my recent jewelry

designs and now you can find all of these pieces in my shop.

During last week I was working on my new watercolor painting
based on my subway doodle. I'm painting it on big 13x19" paper.
It has lots and lots of details and took much longer than I
expected, but I'm very happy with the results.
So...see you soon friends!

Crab cake toppers

These cute crabs are my new cake toppers for a lovely customer.
She is getting married in Florida Keys. *Heaven!*
You can see how big they are compared to my other clay creatures!

I love the way the bride is looking at the groom here! LOL :))

I hope you have a nice Monday and a fresh start to your week! ♥

Illustration Friday - Equipment

A pen illustration I did for Illustration Friday, a vintage coffee grinder.
All vintage equipments have a special charm, don't you think so?

Book of trees

I came across this book in Toronto Public Library a few months ago and

since then I borrowed it many times.

It's a visual guide to more that 500 trees from around the world.

If you're interested in botanical painting it's going to be a valuable

book for you. It's inspiring me a lot.

You can find it here in Amazon.com

Jewelry for warmer days

These days Toronto has the best weather of the year.
It's warm and pleasant...but not hot!
I guess it had an effect of my jewelry designs too.
These are a few of my many new designs.
You can find them all in my shop on Monday.
