Cairn Terrier Commission

Here's adventurous little Cricket. Acrylic on 11x14 hardboard panel.

New ACEOs

I've been dabbling in more ACEO work, which are miniature sized paintings roughly as big as a trading card. Here's two new ones I did over this past week.

I plan on using these designs for my domino pendants, in the near future. :)

Zero Chihuahua Commission

This had to be one of the most enjoyable commissions I've had the opportunity to paint lately. Being a fan of Nightmare Before Xmas myself, I was thrilled when the client requested the background. Acrylic on a 12x12 Gallerywrapped Canvas.

German Shepherd Commission

Just finished this one a couple of days ago for a friend, of their German Shepherd who is no longer with us. Acrylic on gallerywrapped canvas, 8x10.

Tortoiseshell Cat Commission

Finished this a week ago today. The fur was sure tricky, but fun. :)

New set of earrings

Just a shameless little plug to remind you about my new domino earrings. Each are made with sterling silver findings and swarovski crystals, in limited edition sets of 10. Click for larger view.

Long Overdue

Well, it's been quite eventful these past few weeks!. I have to begin with thanking Lisa of Bailey Bowls for making such a marvelous, unique sushi platter. When I first saw her work, I immediately asked whether she did customs. I was absolutely ecstatic with the outcome. Lisa was such a wonderful seller to work with and I'd recommend her hand-thrown pottery to anyone.

As you can imagine, Mr. Roo (my affectionate nickname for my #1 Welsh Corgi companion) is quite pleased with himself. Afterall, how many owners can say they have their pet personally engraved on a sushi platter, of all things?. The small symbol in the lower corner of Kiba's outlines is his name in Japanese kanji/calligraphy. How fitting!.

I've also been busy doing more commission work recently, as well as planning an update for Kayann Works website. This here is Rory, a lovely little Boston Terrier (brown!) from the boston_buddies LJ community. Her owner provided some of the nicest photographs to work with, it was very refreshing to do.

I'm going to be very busy these coming weeks, as I have another 3 commissions currently lined up that I'm excited to do!. It'll be a brilliant time, if only I could keep my pendants stocked. :)
