I hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Weekend.  Today I am enjoying having my boys home from school due to the holiday:)  I thought I’d take a moment to share the painting I did for Andy’s Valentine present! This is a painting of our house (obviously).  One difference from my other house portraits is the [...]

It is so fun to turn my original artwork into note cards.  The first ones I ordered turned out so well that I just had to work up some more! The images available are my acoustic guitar painting, my mixed media “happy” painting, this beautiful coral paisley, the sugar skull image in blue floral or [...]

These beautiful note cards each have a high quality digital image of my own original work on the front. This set contains five cards and five envelopes. The image is “Happy.” The original is a mixed-media piece using acrylic, patterned papers, and scrabble tiles. It has butterfly wings, polka dots, flower petals. . .perfect to [...]

Today I’ve been looking over my body of work for the last year.  Goodness, it doesn’t look like nearly as much when neatly filed away. Some projects I look at and say “never again.” Others I resolve to do more of. The portraits hold a special place in my heart. Here are the portraits that [...]

This is an original mixed media painting created by me just in time for Christmas:) I used acrylic, pen and ink, patterned papers, stamping, and gold metallic glitter on an 8×10 stretched canvas. The sides are painted. “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” Signed by me, Jenny [...]

Ok everybody. My fear has been becoming a slave to my commission work. I’m blessed to get enough “jobs” to stay busy, but I fear never growing, changing, or doing anything NEW! What has been holding me back from painting whatever inspires me? Fear: What if nobody “around here” likes it. Money: The commission jobs [...]

Yep.  I just completed my first ever artist trading card.  Its something I’ve been itching to do for a long time. This one is going in the mail tomorrow to my artsy friend in Iowa, Carliann. I should be getting one in the mail pretty soon and I’m very excited! This little card has all [...]

I love painting these mixed media portraits. James Tyndal Davis, from New Albany, Mississippi, served in the United States Army from 1942 until 1946.  If you look in the background you will see his identification card, certificate of service, and other documents.  After photocopying the documents I aged them to look like the originals. I [...]

I just painted these sweet little crosses.  She wanted them to be green, turquoise, and brown.  They have coordinating patterned paper in the background. Commission Artwork

Christmas things are already starting to pop up in the stores! This year I’m going to try to get as much Christmas shopping done as  possible before December hits so that I avoid the crowds and have PEACE and FAMILY time during my favorite season of all! I painted this nativity to go in the same [...]
