Trash the Dress

My sister and I really enjoyed the lovely weather on Thanksgiving weekend this year, as it meant superb Trash the Dress photos! My sister Trish is a professional make-up artist, and was kind enough to do both mine and her make-up for this photo shoot. I took her photo’s while wearing my wedding gown, and she took mine while wearing hers. We had a blast! And for the record – trashing the dress has nothing to do with our spouses, and everything to do with making use out of a dress we will never wear again.

Let me know if you would like to Trash or Rock your wedding dress – as I have the team to put it into place!

Here is a link to my sisters website! http://trishmooremakeup.blogspot.com/

Challenge #2 – Portrait of a Friend

GROUP OF ART CHALLENGE – ART EXHIBITION

@ Bohemian Cafe & Gallery

Challenge #2 – Portrait of a Friend
Friday August 5th, 7 – 9 pm

In this challenge each of the 24 artists have been teamed up with a friend in the group and asked to create a self portrait each other, which displays their personality and are challenged to share/expose characteristics of their friend in their artwork.

For this challenge I was partnered with gnome maker – Naomi Brinkoff. The first thing I noticed about Naomi was her larger than life smile! So, that’s exactly what I did, I painted her smile at a size of 24 inches by 48 inches. I then overlapped all the writing from her blog with a phototransfer. Looks way better in real life! Go and see it before August 12th! Nom’s and I have decided to switch art pieces, can’t wait to hang my portrait on the wall! Visit Naomi’s blog at http://www.nomshomestudio.blogspot.com/

Priceless Puppies!

Hey all,

Sorry that I have been so busy, I keep forgetting to add to my blog regularly!

I just wanted to share this great pet portrait of my dog (Gertie), and Gertie’s cousin Sully. They are best friends to say the least!

I said “dogpark?” in order to capture this precious moment.

Can I Put This In My Blog?

The idea of glasses face had occurred to me last year in drawing class when anyone who drew me focused on the fact that I wore glasses. All of the drawings.. every-single-one, came out with big dark glasses being the focus. SO HERE IS GLASSES FACE!

My whole life I have been four-eyes, so now I live it up!
