Elizabethtown is a charming town, with a beautiful cutie pie flower and gift shop. Smellie Bloomers on Broad Street, hosts a bounty of unusual and beautiful gifts, I call it “eye candy”. Next week I’ll be offering Valentine paintings and cards, in the mean time I need to say good bye to my Christmas paintings. Take a look, everything is 25% off, but this sale will not last long.

Hi friends, I would love to share a few of my recent paintings with you and invite you to a Christmas Open House at Smellie Bloomers in Elizabethtown, NC, a beautiful gift shop with plenty of eye candy that is sure to please.
Each year I choose a Christmas theme and this year I chose to paint Christmas elves, most are created with a fairly new medium for me…gouache. Gouache is an opaque watercolor and looks like velvet. I also chose to paint on birch wood, a beautiful substrate to paint on, each painting is sealed and can be hung on the wall, displayed on a shelf or table, and you can move them around easily as your décor changes. I do hope you enjoy looking at a sampling of my elves

I’m thrilled to offer another sneak peek at one of my Christmas elves for the 2014 Christmas season. Each year I pick a new theme, I truly hope you like my little elves I chose for this year, if you have suggestions please let me know. This one is special because it has a sweet dove included in the composition.
