Six Abstract, Ikat-inspired Paintings from Me to You.

July 2, 2012
The day has come--All six paintings are done, photographed and officially live for sale in our Etsy shop!!
 Click here to view a lot more photos of each and snatch one up if you would like.
Special thanks to Chris, for encouraging me to do what I love and for being so patient and supportive and loving and hilarious.  Oh and for taking a hundred pictures of me holding all these paintings.  And, of course, thanks to all of you for checking in with us every day and for keeping me motivated.  Can I get a group hug?!
We're off celebrating the paintings being finished, Chris being off work, the 4th of July, Mondays, Greta being a cutie, my new nephew being born this morning...we're loving it all today!

  1. Congrats on your new studio - saw it on Design Sponge. I am an artist too and working to create a space where art, play, workouts and blogging can live together in peaceful unity! I plan on selling my art via Etsy soon. Love your art, it is beautiful.

  2. I couldn't agree more, it's a beautiful day in lots of ways! Your paintings are beyond exquisette. Love, love, love them. I, too, found a wonderful creative outlet today beginning to teach flute lessons. Maybe I'll save up enough soon to afford an official Julia painting---that's motivation to save!!! CONGRATS to you, and here's to creating things that bring joy : )

  3. These are amazing! Wish I had the spare funds to purchase some, but I am sure you will sell these quickly! Great work :)

  4. Ooooo, they're gorgeous! Congrats on getting them done. May they sell out quickly and have you right back at the easel :)
