I've been taking Mindy Lacefied's 6 month course, Wild Surrender. February Mindy did a lovely textural sailboat painting and her lesson inspired this painting.
This is my first painting to feature a boy (my son was thrilled!). I had so much fun painting this one. My love of the ocean, the book "Where the Wild Things Are" and the painted papers of Eric Carle influenced this piece.
In other news, my birthday is March 15th! To celebrate I am having a 10% off sale in my Etsy shop. A print of the above painting is available along with some other new art. Just use the code HAPPY45BDAY at checkout. Sale ends midnight on Sunday the 16th.
Thanks for stopping by!

Lynda, I just discovered your blog! :) Wow, lots of lovely work! So fun, I'm also doing some online-classes (Carla Sonheim, Diane Culhane, Willowing and Friends). Now, by reading your blog, I'm dreaming of more classes!! I love whimsical and cute! I'm looking out for more of your work and inspiration!
