I’m going to be in my first, well kinda,

newmexicomtngirl — Fri, 18 May 2012 03:11:23 +0000

art show in quite a heck of a long time. It is an Equine Art show Which means I get to focus on my Ponies and Horses art, both my watercolours and photography.

I am so super stoked and it’s all happening with ‘ease and grace”. My motto for a long time now………

This is an original that I will offer for sale for the first time at the show. All matted and framed up.

“Sugar” in the Apple Orchard Meadow

and then I can include my first “Ponies in the Meadow”

“Ponies in the Meadow” on my mac

as an incredible laminated WaterColor giclee any size. Maybe bigger than I’ve done before, like maybe an 16×20 or something close.

sooooo many choices to choose from.

Lots of prep to do to make it the best I can be. 35 days and counting.

I have a 10×10 wall space to hang my art and make a lasting impression.

If you have suggestions, please feel free to fess up, k? I would love it….

yellow rose sketch with my watercolors

on an afternoon was we were listening to coast-to-coast

my new Yellow Rose blossom

I love, love, love yellow roses.

Back 30 years ago as of July 24, 1982, when we brought our first son home from the hospital, my yellow rose was blooming and I fell in love with this color.

My favorite yellow that I just adore is the yellow that is tinged with pink on the edges, but it seems a little harder to find. This is a Knockout from Wal-Mart, and it’s just yellow, but such a wonderful rich lemon yellow that changes to white as it stays open. And the scent is just heavenly and fragrant, A little spicy and yet sweet too. At first I wanted the yellow to last longer, but the more I grow it the more the white grows on me too. Perfect for a moon garden. Seems to be doing pretty well with a little rose food and moisture. So out came my watercolours, just to sketch, not necessarily produce a finished painting.

and I tried another one with a darker background, but lost my momentum

I hope you enjoy and have a wonderful day.

I have lots of original watercolor paintings, finished and everything, on my etsy shop along with beautiful photographs.

in lOVE again…painting “Sugar”, spring in the Meadow

newmexicomtngirl — Thu, 12 Apr 2012 04:33:22 +0000

of Apple trees all in bloom.

I’ve been so, so busy working in town, building our second dome, starting mini-gardens and PAINTING…..

my second painting of “Ponies in Meadows” series.

All my life I’ve been heading here, dreaming of here, manifesting my life here, and painting what I love:

"azúcar / Sugar" on my deck

So now all she needs is to get her picture taken by Barry Norris Studio, a world class professional printing studio,

"Sugar" in the Springtime Orchard

along with his sister “Springtime She Cardinal” so prints can be numbered or not. Not sure what the pros and cons of all that are just yet.

Won’t be long and if you would like to purchase either painting, please let me know through my email here on my etsy links and I will take $25. off either or both if you purchase both at the same time., original painting when you mention this comment (first come first serve).

Sugar and Cardinal SpringTime WaterColours

peace n abundance,

CheyAnne

I hope your spring is as magical as mine.

Bought a used car, sent out a wonderful giclee of my Blu, antwerp Blue giclee, and got email that an “interior designer in Tallahassee, Florida currently working on a small restaurant remodeling job…. is looking for rural photography images” and mind came to her, I was asked.

How flattering and she ended up buying a piece. SWEET❤❤

collecting beautiful artwork from others

Seems like artist everywhere like to share their amazing work. they price it as low as they can so people that see it, love it right away, and then see a price and love that too.

I’ve been collecting art from other artist over the 5 years I’ve been on Etsy. And even longer really….. back in my college days (@31 and 32) and from my mother always….

Raspberry Finch by EcoProduct

Here is my Sunday-Mornin’ ~~pic~~ pics of the week:

(cause can we ever stop at one?)

Golden White Yellow Glow Rose

I was soooo struck by the light this morning.

Must be because I started my morning with this beautiful rainbow around the sun before it peaked over the eastern horizon. Just out my kitchen window.

Rainbow around the Sun

pretty cool, yes?

rose glow

Heart of a Yellow Rose

this is a Knock-Out rose that I bought last year. I Love it. I’ve been growing it all winter inside and it has burst forth in early springtime glowery. yup that’s a work I just made up and it is so true for this rose. Rich yellow buds at the first signs of uncurling

warm yellow rosebud

or a cooler version of the same rosebud

cool yellow rosebud

and then to open up yellow and fade to white. They smell great and look amazing. Few petals so that each one stands out on it’s own.

I remember reading on Pioneer Woman’s blog about Knock Out roses and how she thought they were pretty awesome. Well I think so too cause even when it seems like roses are too picky, these aren’t and they give you wonderful lemony spicy flowers to enjoy.

If any of these strike your fancy for a beautiful rose photo for your wall, you can find them on my Etsy shop

peace n abundance,

CheyAnne

Another Little Springtime She Cardinal watercolour

newmexicomtngirl — Sun, 04 Mar 2012 05:29:43 +0000

she’s really coming along. I was a little scared to add her little eye, but I’m feeling good about her. Still quite a little ways to go. But soon she will join her sister of February

and my first try at uploading a video, very tiny, like 5 seconds or something

WaterColor “Springtime She Cardinal”

videos are more ways of getting the news out and something new to learn.

here is a very rough photograph of her progress as she comes alive.

WaterColour of "SpringTime she Cardinal" 11x14

This photograph of the little girl herself is from Kate over on her incredibly talented blog. full of life, amazing captures with their camera she shares with her husband, and their dog named George.

check her out on “Chronicles of a Country Girl”

peace n abundance,
