They Call her Lola....

I am realizing that my artistic style is really vibrant, contemporary and abstract. I had a request to paint a piece for a friend of the family for something over her couch for her living room. She was really vague about what she wanted, just that she wanted nuetral earthy colors. So, of course I didnt know what I was gonna do. I went to my Favorite art store: Jerry's Art-O-Rama and got a canvas and paint....along with a bunch of other stuff I prolly didnt need, but when stuff is on sale, I just cant help myself. lol

Yesterday, I set up my painting "studio" on my patio in the back yard and got to work. I really enjoyed it, I started out with the greens and it took me into creating a rain foresty type islander paradise with of course my favorite flowers lilies. And here is the outcome:




I am going to start a line of paintings similiar to this and will be selling them if anyone is interested. I will be participating in art shows in the springtime too in 2011. I will be posting more information as the time gets closer. Hope you enjoy and you can also view my art at DeviantArt.com on my home page:   http://siren757.deviantart.com/     or click to the ad on the right to see other art I have worked on.


Have a wonderful day!

Marilyn Monroe is my Homegirl!

Its a rainy day and after running around and taking a nice lil nap, I settled down, popped in a movie and did some online browsing. Thanks to the wonderfull world of Facebook, I stumbled across a website called: http://www.artfire.com/.  I fell in love with this website! Its a forum where people can browse for handmade items or sell their creations. I love it because it helps to support artists of all trades and for those shoppers who get tired of seeing the same things in the malls, can find something that is truely unique and that no one has. I pride myself in finding things that no one has because I like to have my own style. I love to mix and match different trends in a way that it all just flows together!

So did I mention I have a slight obsession with Marilyn Monroe? I did a search for Marilyn Monroe earrings and I came across these:



Theyre funky and classy at the same time. I am in no ways a "gangsta" but I do love bandanas and street wear and the best thing is that these babies are only $10! I posted the link to this particular artists page so if you wanna check it out, the artists page is called "Running with Scissors" . Check it out and enjoy!
