Felicia the Artist

Hello, this is Maggie Mae Polly, she is named that after the amazingly cool and groovy Maggie in Iowa. Maggie In Iowa looks nothing like this painting by the way, and i’m pretty sure she doesn’t wear pink. Anyhoo, it was her birthday yesterday, so Happy Birthday Maggie!!!!!!

She is on canvas and I used acrylic, pastels, paper and buttons.

She will be going onto my Etsy shop
as a print tomorrow. I’ve just got all of the Pollys made into fridge magnets and greetings cards to! they will be up on Etsy soon.
This painting says ” Breath and Believe” because really thats all you have to do isn’t it? keep breathing and believe in yourself!

Hope you have a lov-er-ly day,
Felicia x

Heres a peek of the painting I hope to finish today…………..

Hello, are we all glad to see the back of January? We are one month closer to warm weather! I was walking Toby the other day and came across this tree, I think it got hit by lightening – poor thing!
So, whats new? How are your new years resolutions going?
Today I am going to pick up one more set of prints from the printers (duh! where else would I get them?) and hopefully finish the latest painting. I am also on a mission to find Amelie
she has some very sweet pendants made with her lovely art and I know someone who’d like one very well!!! ( yes, me – but actually this is for someone else)
Its windy and rainy today, and Toby is afraid of the wind. I’m trying to type this with him on my lap with his chin laying on the keyboard……. he will follow me everywhere today, he really doesn’t like it. Perhaps I can get him doggy ear plugs?>

Anyhoo, enjoy your day,
lotsa love,

This week we celebrated Tims birthday by taking a night way in west Cork. Now when I say “celebrated” I mean, I did because Tim is having another Bah Humbug moment! He is very good at making a huge fuss of me for mine, but prefers for his to pass un-noticed.

No Chance!!!!

I made him a card – why is it so hard to make cards for men???? which he liked and on our way to Clonakilty we visited Lough Hyne.

We will definately be going there again in the summer, its a great spot for canoeing. So, after cards and presents and cake and a lovely day, he had to admit that birthdays aren’t that bad after all!

Hello lovely ladies,
how was your week? mine was interesting, it flew by though and now since it is howling a gail and puring rain, i’m at home “pottering” .

My cousin Paulette posted on Facebook yesterday, “Dear God, please make my bank balance fat and my body thin, I only ask as it seems to be the wrong way round!”

And Ebony posted that she wanted to go to Notting Hill (or Primrose Hill, any London hill will do apparently) and open a cake shop that does late night sessions, craft classes and makes hangover killing bacon sandwiches…………..

Dreams are funny things, mine usually involve living in a house that we have built that will have craft room ( a whole room!) and magically this house will always be tidy…! and I will finish everything I start….. but I’m much better at that than I used to be!

So, ladies, what did you dream of this week?

p.s. Get better soon Maggie x x x x x x x x x x
