Illustration Friday – Golden
The topic this week for Illustration Friday is ‘Golden’. That made me think of the golden spiral, which in turn made me think of a Nautilus Shell! This watercolor painting measures 5×7 and is available in my Etsy Shop.
Sushi Pop Art Wrapping Paper
I’ve been working on some repeating patterns. My first one is sushi pop art. Right now it’s available as wrapping paper, but I have plans in the works for fabric. I just need to get some test swatches printed so stay tuned!
Paint Day!
Anatomical Human Heart Wall Banner
One of these things is not like the other, well it sort of is! This cute wall hanging banner features three hearts, one of them just happens to be an anatomical human heart. This would make a fun room decoration that is sure to get some double takes!
Available in my Etsy Shop.
Quick Tip – Use Packing Tape for Cutting Felt Shapes
When I was first working with felt I had a heck of a time trying to get the shapes I wanted cut out precisely. I used cardboard cutouts and my trusty rotary cutter for straight lines, but anything else was a pain in the you know what. I tried everything including straight pins and disappearing ink (that didn’t disappear) fabric pens to no avail. Luckily I found this handy tutorial over on Wee Folk Art! All you need is some wide packing tape!
Cut out your paper pattern leaving a little bit of space around the cut line and tape around all the edges on top of your piece of felt.
Cut out your shape along the pattern line and admire your perfectly cut felt!
