Summer is right around the corner....what are your plans?

There are some many things I had planned for my blog this year that I didn't get to do. So once again I'm going to try again this summer to get it together and work on getting information out to my readers and new and upcoming ideas. I truly want to get better at showcasing other blogs and other websites - since networking is really the key to any business growth. So to start off early before June is even here. Here is my first featured artist.

FEATURED ARTIST:
I'd like to share my first find. Her name is Laura and she has a wonderful blog. Laura also has a etsy.com shop so go check her out! Great stuff and reasonable prices. Tell her Teresa says "HI".
Doodle Boop Designs

Also check out this next week as I'm doing a June Contest. A FREE Personalized Family Tree Print or a FREE Scripture Tree Print. (Valued at $15.00- your choice) The winner will be choosen of two ways. One winner will be the 100th registered online submission and the second winner will from a written contest. "What is Your Purpose In Life" Just three to five sentences is all you need. And there is no age restrictions. Any age or gender can enter. I really want this written contest to be a reflection on ourselves and hopefully help us to conquer that purpose more forcefully.

I'll be posting this contest on my blog, facebook, website (still in the works) and my etsy shop too! So make sure you check in at least weekly to see where you might be at.

Welcome to My Design Center!

Well painting has really come to a stand still which is fine. I'm not a stranger to re-inventing myself. I realize now how I need to organize my time to dedicate to not only etsy items but to my blog as a designer/artist with creative ways to get my work out there.
Just recently I created a logo sheet that I dropped off at the local coffee shop and some of my other frequent visited businesses. I'm in the works of creating a brochure for Wedding Invitations for a local bake shop that does a lot of wedding cakes.
I notice as an artist and a mom, I just can't quite. It's not fair to myself nor my family.
Here are some recent logos I've been working on.

This design actually won for a t-shirt contest for the run in PA. I was really excited and not that I win any money (which Lord knows I need) but I will get a free t-shirt. I can always use a FREE t-shirt. So I'm still happy. :)
Here are some other designs I"m working on...

And finally this design is being placed in a contest for a Convenience Store in another state.

Happy Mother's Day!

This May what would be more perfect than to give someone you love (yes this means mom, grandma, or your favorite aunt) a personalized tree illustration. This 8 1/2" x 11" painting is so beautiful you will not regret purchasing it. All bases of trees are brown. WIth the choice of up to 8 names plus the last name. You can list your pets if you want too. Other options is to have a favorite quote or scripture placed in the bark instead of names. This way it can be used anywhere in the house. You get up to three color to choose from for the leaves or if you prefer I will paint graphic flowers for you instead of the leaves. Go to my etsy shop so you can see some samples.
