New ACEO - wash day!

It's been a slow week for me, but I'm fine, I just had my kids home with me for spring break. I'll have to work extra hard this week to make up for slacking off! This was listed yesterday, but my computer stopped working just after I listed it so I couldn't post a link until now.

New ACEO - spring kimono kitty

This is turning out to be a slow week for me. My two boys are home with me because it's spring break, and it's raining so we can't really go anywhere. Last year my older son won a coloring contest at our Ukranian cultural centre. One of the prizes he won was a Ukranian Easter egg coloring kit, with the dyes, beeswax and special tool you need to apply the wax resist. So this afternoon we will attempt to color some eggs. My dad's parents were Ukranian and they had some pretty incredible egg - I especially remember one with little deer on it. I don't think ours will turn out nearly so well!

Anyway, probably only three paintings from me this week. Here's something nice and pretty and springy. Click here to bid!

New ACEO - Egyptian cats

Someone from ebay contacted me this week and asked me if I could do something Egyptian. It's actually been on my "to do" list for a long time - I used to be as interested in Egyptian art as I am now in Japanese. This painting is loosely based on a box lid found in Tutankhamen's tomb depicting his young wife presenting him with lotus flowers. These cats here though aren't royalty - I left off the royal symbols and just dressed them as noble people. Click here to bid!
