Halloween Humpty Pumpkin

Just a few final touches and it will be done. Took a long time to get this puppy done, I started painting it nearly two years ago or more and it sat there waiting to have a theme but I couldn't seem to get back to it. I decided that this is going to be done by the end of the year and then the idea of Halloween came to mind and then I really had to get on it. Anyway it is 99.9 percent done and it will go on eBay soon.

New Halloween Ghostie Doll in the works

This is going to be in a pram like one I just sold.

Halloween Witch Doll in the works

Almost done, just the finishing touches to do. They were suposed to be two separate pieces but the large one kept falling forward and the little one kept falling backward. I just grabbed the little one to use as a prop and voilà!

they became co-dependant on each other, so they are BFFS now. How can I separate them lol.

Auntie Awful's sister Hazel

This is the second watercolor that I have been working on. I will have three sisters in all. The mean one Auntie Awful, the "pretty one" Hazel and the slightly insane one Marge. I will be making ACEO cards of these three plus some greeting cards. My wheels are still spinning so there maybe other things as well later on.

Art dolls every where

I am in the process of building a new website and working on some paintings that will be available for sale and also some new Art dolls that have a little twist to them. I hope you keep stopping by to see what I am up to and move on to my new site which will be available in a week or so.

Too busy to craft

 I bought some Calgon and this is what happened to me

The dog ate my homework

 I have ADHD (Almost Done Housework Duties)

As you can see I am really in deep thought about my next project and it really takes it out on a woman.

Updating my blog

I am trying to update my blog and I am having a hard time doing it. Please excuse the ever changing pages. I know what I want but have no idea how to do it. I am PC challenged you see. I am also trying to get my craft room finished and plaster my bathroom walls. I don't juggle very well and I also have ADHD (Almost Done Household Duties) So I guess I better get back to the tasks at hand.

What to do with all those scissors

I put them all up on the wall above my sewing table.

Some work in progress

I am working on this right now. Don't know what I am going to do with it yet. She looks like she  has got  lots of attitude. I have a new toy that I am playing around with on my computer and this is what I have so far. I sketched this on paper first then scanned it in to the computer. Playing around with it is so much fun. I will post my finished product when it is done.

Kitchen Cabinets Painted Black

My inspiration for this was the wonderful art of Tracy Flickinger. I had the apron and when I decided to paint my kitchen black I wanted the doors to have some other color and the apron gave me the idea to fill the panels with these cute guys.

           I plastered the walls and took down those awful 70's light panels. I put tin where the lights were.

As I live in wine country I wanted to add some grapes. I found these cheap resin shelves and used them for under my granite counters. I painted them black and Viola!! These are selling for $60 each in wood at my local hardware store.

                                        

This is my starting point. Orange stain and floor tiles for counters, Yuk!

The cabinets were redwood and in good condition so I didn't have to replace them.

I added bead board to the recessed doors only on the bottom to give them some texture

It's a dogs life after all

Cookie, my constant companion. She loves this spot as it looks out on to the street and she can keep her eye out for the black cat that lives across the street.
 How wonderful is unconditional love. What would I do without her.

New Craft Room

Hi everyone, still working hard on my house.My new craft room is slowly emerging from the dust and wood shavings. Going very slow as we have a family member (Charlotte) that is very sick. Prayers are gratefully accepted for healing for lung cancer. Thank you to all in advance that pray for her. I am going to post more often than I have as I feel like it's an outlet for me and takes my mind off things for a little while.

Taking some time off to get my house in order

As you can see from the photo I am in the middle of a huge construction project. We are making two rooms out of one big one. We never use the large room, it just sits there looking pretty. We decided to make it two rooms, one is going to be my sewing room (yippeeee!) and the other one will be for the grand kids for toys and wii games etc. They both will  have a closet in them so lots of storage (I can go shopping) This one wall is over 12 feet high so lots of wall to drywall and paint. We are doing all the work ourselves so it takes us a lot longer than the professionals. I can't wait to get it done and move my things in. I will post as I get time.

Arrrrrrrrhhhhh!!!

Trying to do some work but it's hard when I'm stressed. All my creative juices dry up. Calgon take me away!. I have so many ideas swimming around in my head but all it's doing right now is giving me a headache.

Halloween Baby In A Buggy

I am working on this little doll right now. She is very tiny, only seven inches tall and the doll she is holding is three inches. Just a few more touches and she will be ready for eBay.

Messy Blog

I know, I know it's messy.  All in the wrong place and off center. I am working on fixing it in between painting and such. It will be great when it's done, trust me. Check back often to see what's new.

I will be adding  her sisters in the next week or two for a set of three that will be offered as prints.

The originals will be up for sale soon.

Halloween Folk Art Doll

I have just completed the coffin for poor Bessie May. It turned out better than I had hoped for. I only made it today but it looks like it's a hundred years old. Very pleased.   She was a very sweet lady, loved by all and was devoted to God. She will be sadly missed but never forgotten. A wonderful poem came to mind as I was designing this doll. I will include it with her inside her box.

SOLD

New Witch Painting

I am starting to get back in the swing of things. My newest painting is almost ready to list on eBay. It will be listed on Sunday evening. The painting comes with an original poem I wrote that I think is quite funny. Stay tuned.

Updating my blog

Please be patient with me as I try to updat my blog. I am finding it rather difficult to get my ducks all in a row. Trying to finish some projects and stay sane.

A cute fluffy little chick wearing a blue ribbon. It is painted on quality water paper using gouache and water color paints. It has a look of a vintage style painting. The frame has been decorated in patchwork style with a wood burning tool and stained to give an aged look. The painting has been sealed and is behind glass. It is a Kaz Original design and one of a kind. Signed and dated by me the artist. It measures 12 ¼ inches wide x 14 ¼ high total. Comes ready to hang. Would look great in a country kitchen

Halloween Witch Painting in progress

I had the urge to draw the other day and I came up with this water colour. I still have some work to do on it. I have written a poem to go with it which I think is pretty funny. Some times poems just come to mind as I am working on a piece, others just have a name.

New Halloween dolls on the way soon

I have been so busy these last few weeks I haven't had time to get in my studio. I have some exciting ideas for dolls. I hope to have at least one on eBay this Sunday if all goes well. I feel like a mad scientist trying out all the ideas in my head I think that the dolls are going to be great and can't wait to get one finished. Stay tuned.

Yo Ho Yo Ho A Pirates Life For Me

This is where it all began. Once he had on his outfit he never wanted to be anything but a Pirate.

I made this pull toy for him on his last birthday.

It has been three years now since my grandson started liking pirates. He dresses up as a pirate most days and plays out  scenes from a day in the life of a pirate. We have to walk the plank or swab the decks. It is so much fun to hear him do his Arrrr! me mateys. Here are some of my favorite photos of him dressed up. He wanted a pirate birthday party (of course) So my daughter and I made this bean bag toss game for him and his mateys to play at the party. Pirate treasure can be won by all if you can blow up the ship with the skeleton bean bags. We love him so much he is the real treasure
