And so we head off to see the circus girl...
Anticipating those colorful scented nights under cool moonlight.
Those lights sparkling ever so bright.
Beams of color, imagination in flight.
With such grace she dances on point, way up in the sky.
Every color of your wildest dreams comes alive...
Under the big top of pure delight.
This is the piece I have been working on for about a year, or more.
Adding color in layers and layers...
Sparkles, and gold leaf, and orbs galore.
Circus magic conjurings swirling in my head...
She dances and twirls, calls my name sometimes at midnight.
More sparkle?
Okay, you got it.
And now, she is ready to find a new home.
To start a new journey and adventure.
The Circus Girl
24" x 24" x 1.5
Since I will be going on an adventure soon, I thought I would ad these new pieces at the last minute. I just didn't want more time to pass.
And this little lass has been on an expedition for a year over to Stampington.
So, she's eager to find a home.
Candy colors of party goodness...
She is also now in my shopling.
Sweetie sweets.
With pink and white stripes surrounding the piece.
You can spy her in the 2013 issue of
Somerset Holidays and Celebrations.
It's a scrumptious dreamy issue by the way.
So happy to have little miss be a part of it.
A couple other pieces were on a little journey...
This piece comes to me in my dreams.
I think spring lives deep in the heart.
It's always there...
Even with autumn upon us, the weather shifts, and we get an autumn spring for a few weeks.
Flowers rebloom, and come back to life after the very hot summer.
Then winter spring planning - the yearning for fresh buds, the anticipation.
Spring in the heart...
Awakening of Spring 10" x 10" 1.5"
Sparkles of dew, and hope...
Giant flowers, like Thumbelina in the garden.
A heart full of spring indeed.
A little different from being at the circus - but still two places I love.
The peace of the garden, the magic of the circus.
Don't you love both of those places as well?
Oh oh, last but not least...
Let me not forget...
Nature's Lullaby.
10" x 10" x 1.5"
I wish I could have that background on my wall in my house.
I love those flowers and colors of teals and pinks.
There is gold leaf edging with fairy sparkles surrounding this piece.
Can you hear the tune? Of nature's lullaby?
It's so hard to convey the sparkle via photos.
Paper dress dancing ensues...
All pieces so different aren't they?
But all little facets and colors in my heart.
All pieces now looking for homes.
And, can be found in my online shop here.
I loved making these so much.
Thanks for peeking in.
Love, V
ps: We have had ever so many projects up our sleeve. Tiling a bathroom, organizing drawers. How do kitchen drawers get so insane? It's silly really. Why does organizing ones closets and cabinets feel so good? Well, my shop will be open for a few more days, and then I will take a little journey. After which, we need to talk about a Halloween Haunted Tea Party I have up my sleeve. You game? It will be late in happening, but it will happen if I have any say about it, k? ♥
