Love is In the Air…

Love is In the Air...

Love Love Love, it’s what many of us think about A LOT! If we have it, if we don’t, if we want it, if it’s on the horizon… Passion, romance, sweet sticky wonderful love. I’m in love. I’m completely in love with my amazing husband and next month we celebrate our one year anniversary. AND next month is Valentines Day, YAY!

So it may be a bit early for this love holiday card but today I had to create something new and play just for the joy of it. I found this beautiful vintage angel with such a charming cherub face it was easy to envision something cool. I found it at http://graphicsfairy.blogspot.com.  She has the most wonderful vintage imagery on her blog site.  Check it out!

I worked on this piece on and off all day long between jobs, errands, calls– a few minutes here, a few minutes there– letting ideas unfold, visions pop, flashes of insight appear.

Tonight we went to see a movie– Silver Linings Playbook. What a great movie– all about love– and gambling. 🙂 I kinds got chills from it too and by the time I got home I was rarin’ to get back on this.

Bottom line– I took this very vintage image and using very contemporary techniques, as well as my colorful style and hippie chick sensibilities voila! A brand new art piece I just love. What a great way to keep learning and keep the juices flowing creatively! So Happy Valentines Day a month early! xoxoxoxox
