Mountains of Myrrh

this one's driving me a little crazy. It's my first real attempt on canvas so am being extra persnickety about it and experimenting bit by bit. Wasn't sure where I was heading but Holy Spirit gave me directions last night so I'm just gonna give in and go wild! 

Ponyhorse is almost there

Planning a series called 'Mountains of Myrhh' and it's all swirling around in my head but there's no time! Need more time! Length of days! Maybe I can get some real painting done after the holiday baking season calms down..

Brace yourselves, it’s quite possible a box of Crayolas threw up in here.

From my Word! series: 'The Lord is my light and my salvation' - Psalm 27:1. Three point prisms reflect our triune God in a multifaceted riot of color.This fella all but drove me to apoplexy cos I had to redo the hand-lettering 3 times. meep! but he's finally done and I love him, my little acrylic + sweat & tears baby. *faint*

Polychrome Love is available in 5 x 7 inch prints and A6 sized greeting cards.   
'Like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around him. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD.' - Ezekiel 1:28

Prints are available here or via email. 

Oh Snap

60 - 70 hours of work =

Tedious much? but I do love the effect. might have to change up the centerpiece though. brb, dying.

also blurry sneakpeek for my newest prints/cards:

Someone asked why my art is so colorful.. what's a girl to do? I'm in a polychromatic phase and that's what the inside of my head looks like. Mostly. If I were to paint the other 10% like I used to, it'd legit make children cry. Also, manic depression is so last year.

Candy Hearts

Three things will last forever - faith, hope, and love - and the greatest of these is love.

Happy Day!

Walt Whitman - A Song of Joys

Just finished two new designs whee! Will post soon. I should probably spend less time doodling in my journal and focus more on painting. meep. Occupational hazard. Oh by the by, go watch The Descendants. You will bawl your eyes out. in a good way. Now back to the gulag!

P.S. Anyone else utterly obsessed with this song?

New Paintings!

They're done! Took forever to get the color spectrum just-so but the end result is awesomecakes! Praise God! I work best when His hand is guiding mine! Say hello to Mountain Song & Butterfly #01.

Mountain Song

With Mountain Song I wanted to express a sense of boundless joy and celebration as creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed (Romans 8:19) and sings out in exultant praise to our God and Saviour. The first in my All Creation Sing series. Had a lightbulb moment while reading Isaiah 44:23,

Sing for joy, O heavens,

for the LORD has done this;

shout aloud, O earth beneath.

Burst into song, you mountains,

you forests and all your trees,

for the LORD has redeemed Jacob,

He displays His glory in Israel.

Butterfly Series #01

The butterfly series came about thanks to my nephew Aiden's love for insects and bugs of all kinds. My 'plan' was to steer him away from the scarier bugs to something less creeptastic: butterflies! No dice but the paintings were a hit with kids & adults alike so I thought I'd make more to sell as prints. More to come soon!

Prints are available at my etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/lovedayart

Howdy!

Finally worked up the intestinal fortitude to get my art up on the big bad interwebs, I'm all aquiver! Look out for artyfacts and updates from my label, Loveday Art and feel free to join me as random inspiring-ness emerges out of the ether. Hurrah! Celebratory dancing is order ~ let's link elbows and off we go! ♥
