Time management

For the past weeks I have been complaining 24/7 about the lack of time I have to create, and it's true, my time to create right now is pretty limited.
Sooo... why if I don't have a lot of time to make new artwork, I always use my little free time to do things like these?

(these are birthdays "cards" I made for my sister, my mom, my mother in law and my husband to post on facebook)

I believe my problem is not lack of time, my problem is time management ;)

Something new and cool!

Many times I get email form people asking me for and specific pattern or artwork to create an skin for their devices, and unfortunately I couldn't help everybody, but NOW I CAN!

Now in DecalGirl you can create your custom skin for your devices using my artwork. I will be adding new designs every week. If you want to have an specific artwork, let me know and I will add it into my gallery.

Create your custom skin here!

 I really like this new DecalGirl featured. What do you think?

Cardboard, paint and ink

I have been working on Ava's nursery in the past months. I'm not good decorating, but at least I could make some art for the walls. These 2 pieces were really easy and kind of fast to make.
I got a cardboard letter A at Joanns Fabric and a Deer on Urban Outfitters. I got a spray paint and in minutes the deer head was ready to hang in the wall. Easy, right?
The letter A took me a little bit longer, but everyday i did a little. And finally Ava is going to have some artwork in her nursery walls before she leave for college ;)


 
 

Busy Life

Life have been pretty busy the last months. Having a baby is wonderful.. and difficult! I'm still trying to find a balance and see how I'm going to take care of Ava and work at the same time. So far I just decide to take it easy until she turn 2 (or 3 or 6!) month and after that I will re open my Etsy shop ans see if I can manage everything (crazy, right?. I'm really wondering how other people do it... I guess I will have to take one step at the time. How you do it?

 I owe you million of posts, but for some reason I was waiting to redesign my blog to come back in a new totally different phase of my life... but who was I kidding? I don't have time to take a shower, when I will find time to redesign this blog? Not any time soon!

Well... one step at the time, right? And because right now Ava is having a nap (taking about naps, Ava is 7 weeks old today, how many hours she should be sleeping during the day?), I can share with you a little something I start doing the last month. A few weeks ago I decided to do a little work every week. I wish I can paint a big canvas or do a new print, but usually I don't now how much time I will have available to paint, but I need to create in order to feel better... And if mama is happy, everybody is happy.
