Projects and WIP

This past month has been filled with so many get togethers and projects. It has been great and crazy! I'm hoping August is a bit more relaxing, but who knows... little K will start school! My baby is going to school!?! That time has gone by all too quickly!

Anyway, I thought I'd share a couple of the more interesting projects from the month.

A friend asked me to design and paint a sign to go behind her reception table. Her theme was a rustic/elegant wedding. She supplied the awesome barn door. The grooves and old chipping paint definitely made the project more interesting but I think it turned out pretty nice. :)

My very talented hubby and owner of Wisp Woods, requested the logo I previously designed for his business to be put on a cap. I made sure to get it painted on in time for his birthday. So glad I didn't screw up since I had no time to go get another hat.

Then after shop orders have been completed and if I don't have to run somewhere (which has been rare) I work on my newest mixed media piece, "Let Go & Trust". This one is quite a bit darker then my last... maybe because my mood was a bit darker when I started? I guess that is one thing about being an artist... you can show your emotions through your work. I'm excited to see her finished and get working on the next one! :)

Quiet

Wow! This summer seems to be going by at great speed. I haven't been able to keep up with everything and since the blog is at the low end of my priority list... well you can see it has been pretty quiet. Our life lately has been full of good and not so good events but mostly good so for that we are very thankful. This month has been full of family get togethers, Vacation Bible School, and a variety of house and work projects. If we happen to get a little free time we try to do something fun and relaxing as a family. Have to enjoy the warm weather while we can! :)

It looks like the blog will remain pretty quiet until mid August or later.

I hope you are all having a fantastic summer! Happy weekend!

I think you'll know what it is supposed to say. :)
