RAWR!

I'm workin' the early Christmas orders today. Love these cute little dinos, and I hope their recipients love them, too! I'm going to have a selection of customize-able ornaments available this season online at tangentsbyshs.etsy.com and in person at the Handmade Omaha Holiday Bazaar! Check out the Upcoming Events section of my blog to learn more about the Holiday Bazaar this November. Lots of wonderful artists will be there with their wares - It's the best show of the season!

Thinking, Painting, Laundry

I've been staring at this wood slice for several weeks now. I love the interesting shape! Nothing seems good enough to paint on it. I've considered a giraffe, a lion, a hedgehog, and a deer. All would be cute, but would they be just the perfect thing? Currently I have a nice coat of beige paint on for the background. Hopefully inspiration will strike soon!

  

In other news, Maura has been helping with the laundry lately. As you can see, lots of work is (not) getting done!

 

 

Just Keep Swimming

I spent my Sunday afternoon playing with baby Maura and painting - two of my most favorite activities! I caught Maura doing a really convincing impression of reading. Yes, that book has tails, and yes, she loves it!

It was pretty warm out today. I mean, 90 degrees in October is pretty intense! It inspired this li'l fish painting. The bubbles make me feel nice and cool.
