No matter what they might say


I've made it no secret that I'm completely infatuated with the notion of adorning everything with Peter Pan collars. It's basically become the Holy Grail of must-haves... well, that and crushed velvet. And while it probably seems I'm stockpiling for some apocalyptic Victorian lace extinction, I still love the other pretty frocks mingling in my closet.

The Body

You can barely see it in the last post , so here's a clearer picture of   what I've been working on in my new art studio... not that it hasn't come with little stop your heart stress moments.   The first time I attempted this piece, now referred to as The Body , was mutually as terrifying as it was exhilarating. It was the first full hand drawing I'd ever attempted, and everything was going smoothly until the moment I decided to incorporate oil paint, also the first in my artwork experiences. My grandmother was an award-winning artist, but now, without her wealth of knowledge and go-to advise, this is really a learning/teach yourself process.
