It's been a busy few months since I last posted. A house on the market. A baby turning one. A husband turning forty. Frigid temperatures in my adorable but not centrally heated studio. Not super-conducive to painting, I'm afraid, but with Christmas orders pouring in, I kicked it into high gear. In a true Christmas miracle, I managed to finish some well-deserved teacher gifts and a few other commissions in time to gloss on the day before the snow and single digit temperatures began.
I have been so blessed this month to have received so many custom orders. It is so humbling to me to be chosen to create something special enough to be given as a gift to a loved one...whether that be a teacher, friend, mother-in-law, boss, or sister.
This little red tweet was bought as a gift for a special mother-in-law to remind her of her mother who had recently passed but who loved red birds.
The tiny tweet on the top row went to a mother-in-law who loves turquoise. The flowers went to another mother-in-law. The yellow cross to a mother who recently redecorated in fun, bright colors. The trio of crosses went to a trio of friends who have been instrumental in the life of another friend. Each one was picked with love and care and thoughtfulness.
I even sold my first gift certificate, given as a token of respect and love from a group of teachers to their beloved boss.
On top of all that, I reached 200 fans on my facebook page (www.facebook.com/littleestudio) !!! I'm still in shock!! All I can say is that I am grateful, grateful, grateful for your support!
Thank you all for letting me be a part of your Merry Christmas!
Peace and Joy,
