the 100 faces of Arabella

Sometimes I get obsess in love with a drawing. And I draw it like million times in different ways.
For example. One day, I saw a cute little cow and I decided to make a canvas with that face.
First, I painted the cow with acrylic on a 10x10 canvas.



I added ink and Arabella was born!



I love her soooo much and I wanted to make a print, but because she was painted on the canvas (color ready, etc) I could scanned to create a print.
Sooo... I draw it again on water color paper and after that I scanned and added the color on illustrator. And I made a print for my Etsy shop.



I loved the blue background. I really liked but I felt she needed more color. I decide to take the original drawing and star adding some funky "my style" flowers.



After finished all the flowers, I scanned again and colored again and now Arabella is super happy living within flowers ;)

What do you think is better, the plain blue background or the funky flowers?

Happy Spring!

Somebody told me it's Spring already! Really? I didn't have idea because I live in Miami and we usually skip the most important seasons :S
Well, lets pretend is Spring here, and I'm going to do a spring cleaning and picnics and put in the closet all the winter clothes (that is a big joke!) and celebrate... painting ;)

Check my shop and you can see some cute Tea Towels, sets of blank cards, little notebooks and new 8x10 prints on canvas.







Happy Tuesday!

Meantime, while she is grows...

Well, it's happening. I'm going to have a baby girl in just 5 months!How that happen? (yes, don't worry I swear I know how that happen). Time is going fast, super fast, and of course, I'm freaking out a little bit. I have to many things to do. I have like 3 millions plans and goals to follow. I'm super anxious thinking in how my life is going to change in August, and I cant wait and I the same time I want to to stop the time right now ;) Sounds crazy, right?
The last weeks have been a whirlwind of activities and work and plans and dreams. And time is passing soooo fast. I think it's time to stop planning and dreaming and just start working before we welcome our daughter.
I made a basic list of the things I really want to accomplish in the next 5 month. Soooo... while she grows, I will:



Happy weekend :)
