Panda Rose Art

Auntie Panda....aka Amanda and Rosie were painting on the big easel together and this is the result. It was so good.

If you have a piece of your child's art or something you/family/friends have done with them then make it into a mini masterpiece.  It's so simple to photograph it, crop and re size it (there are lots of free packages to do this) and then print it out for a picture frame or a card.

You can still keep the original but these minis are great for presents or to keep changing in the home.

We gave this to auntie panda as part of her 30th birthday present and she loved it.


Well done Panda and Rosie.

The big table...update

One coat undercoat, two coats paint and two coats varnish...they aren't finished yet!

Pale lilac,pink and blue colours are just a hint of colour but do look good.

Corky the dog dog

A combined effort from myself and Rosie of Corky the dog dog.  I got Rosie to paint some red on watercolour paper (Corky's mummy and daddy's kitchen accent colour).  Rosie used the brush and also the tip of the brush in paint to get the effect, very artistic I thought for a toddler that's nearly two!  I then drew Corky on and added a bit of coloured pencil.  Quite a cool result we thought. Happy birthday Auntie Caronine.....aka Caroline.

Maybe I'll add an example on Etsy, jenrose art!

The big table

I've been loving some recent pictures in magazines of painted tables and chairs.  The chairs have been different pastel colours and when they are put together they look really cool.

So when I happened across a big table and six chair in Vinnies charity shop for $100, I could see the finished look.

Rosie was very disturbed when the delivery men arrived, she thought they were taking her table away.  Now it's called the big table the men brought.

Here's a before picture, I'll post a finished one when I've painted it.  Wish me luck.

Mini canvas prints

I'm exploring my prints on mini canvas.  It's a cute way to have a variety of art in the nursery.  Mixing up larger and smaller pieces can look very cool or even amongst their toys and treasures. They are approximately 13cm x 11cm.

They'll be on Etsy soon.

A few new prints

I've been doing a few more paintings.  I've been wanting to paint my nana's budgies and how I remember them with the lovely floral tray covers she use to make for the cage.  The batman and robin has been up in my head for a while. The hedgehogs are two of my best friends, who when I asked 'what would you be if you were an animal' replied...hedgehogs...cute but prickly!

Mini milk bottles

Just had to share my new find from one of my favourite shops 'Found Store'.  I've seen these in magazines but could never find them to buy...until now.

Six little milk bottles you can use for children's drinks or as I have for now....flowers.  Rosie (nearly 2 years) is still on the plastic bottles for now.  We picked some wild flowers from the wilderness behind our garden and a frangipani from our tree.  Looks quite eastery. I'll take more pictures of them in the sunshine soon.
